    Anyone here own a Presonus Audiobox USB?

    I recently bought a Presonus Audiobox USB interface. Two inputs, which are a universal XLR / 1/4" type. I had planned on using it both with two microphones and also with a small 8 channel mixer, plugging the line level outputs of the mixer into the inputs of the interface to do some live 2...

    FYI for Windows users

    Just an FYI, if your system is attached to the Internet. Microsoft released a bunch of security patches for XP / Vista / Win 7 in the last 48 hours. If you have not run Windows Update in awhile, now might be a good time to do so.

    Windows XP SP3 almost here

    http://www.computerworld.com/action/article.do?command=viewArticleBasic&articleId=9079418&source=NLT_PM&nlid=8 Shouldn't be a big deal in functionality, its just a couple of years of hotfixes rolled into one file. But will be a big time saver when setting up a new XP installation.

    Patching Old Sonic Foundry programs to register properly

    This was probably posted here ages ago - but I figure I may as well pass my recent experiance on to those who may have missed it. If you are using an older Sonic Foundry program, like earlier versions of Sound Forge / ACID / Vegas, you know that when registering it tries to connect to a Sonic...

    Looking for help with sudden onset of digital "beeps" into audio projects

    Hey guys, I’m making a rare visit from The Cave back to the forum that originally brought me to HR. After a long drought I’ve been working on some audio files again. And I’ve been trouble shooting some rather bizarre computer behavior that recently started and I wanted to see if anyone else...

    What do people here use for DVD ripping?

    Just curious - there are a lot of comercial & shareware products out there in the Windows XP world. If you want to rip a DVD movie to a AVI or MPEG file (for playing on an IPod for example), what are you peeps using? I'd also like something that can pull individual chapters out of movies.

    What (if anything) are people using for power filtering?

    I'm sure a few people in here have substancial investments in their studios & computer hardware. I've lost a couple of computer power supplies in the last week - fortunately the computers themselves and their data came through fine. All the PCs I had were on what I would call "decent quality...

    What the f*ck is up with NVidia?

    I generally have a preference for ATI video cards. But among my pile of PCs I also have a few NVidia Geforce cards. For 3 days I've been trying to download a driver update. I always get the same shit - my 40 meg download will take 11 hours. Same on all 4 mirror sites. If I leave it and...

    Anyone here use Nero 7 Ultra edition?

    I was thinking about buying Nero 7 Ultra, I've had Nero 6 for a long time. But what I need to know is this: Is version 7 one of these (increasingly common) programs where you initially install it, then have to register it online before it will work, and you can't register it a second time...

    Which of these ass-kicking Mobo/CPUs would you buy?

    Its been almost a year since I last added a new computer to my little collection at home. I’m thinking its time to build a new one, and I’d like to get some opinions. The system would be replacing my “main” computer which is a jack-of-all trades kind of machine. I don’t do tracking on it but...
