    A couple ?'s about SoundForge

    I pretty much just need something right now that will boost the overall volume of my mix....I like my mixes a lot, they are just a tad bit quieter than I think they should be. I'm looking for something cheap (even a demo version or something) that will boost the overall songs. Any suggestions...

    A couple ?'s about SoundForge

    Hello all! I'm using a digital 16 track to track and mix my songs, but after I'm done mixing and I burn to a cd, the overall sound is just a little low. Can you use soundforge for mastering like this? Or can you reccommend software that will boost the overall level of my recordings? Can you use...

    Advice on an Akai MPC/vs something else

    Hi...I hope this is the right forum for this post. I'm really interested in an Akai MPC2000 to use with my Midi keyboard, as well as the sampling functions. I'm also new to these types of units...Can anyone tell me if I'd be wasting $$ on this unit (can I find computer software to do the exact...

    Snaps, trigger/sample?

    About 5 years ago, my band and I went to a studio for the first time. We did one song that was kind of layed back and slow, so we had the idea of putting some snaps on time with the snare hits. Instead of recording the snaps, the engineer had a cd of samples and used something to add the snaps...

    ultimate hi hat pair

    I like trying different combos all the time, but my favorite is a 14" K top and a 14" Mastersound Bottom. The Mastersound gives the overall sound more of a distinct "chik!" sound that I like.

    what cymbal to choose

    Look for a used Paiste 2002 I'm pretty sure that's what he used for a while. No smaller than 18". Make sure it's not one of the re-issued ones that they sell now......those are different.

    This sucks!

    I did a search on this and didn't find anything, so maybe someone can help. I'm using cubase 5.0 with a Mac G4 and a Delta 1010...Is it possible to record from more than 2 inputs at a time? I've tried everything I can think of to get this to work and I'm about to freak out. It really sucks...

    Best Vocal Mic under $500?

    Well, depending on how far under 500$ you wanna go, 8th Street is selling the AT 4050 w/ shockmount for 479 shipped. Now if you check out places like Mars and Guitar Center, this mic sells for 599 (not including sales tax)and I don't think you get the shockmount either. It just seems like an...

    Where is my Vegas?!

    Thanks Cyanjaguar I appreciate the response. I was kinda nervous when I was buying my equipment, but I think I'm gonna like computer recording. Out of curiosity, what tracking software do you like using most with the 1010? Just looking for opinions. RyanV

    TIGHT snare drum

    Good CCCKKKKKKRRRRACK!!!! sound: Asi9, I'm pretty familiar with the sounds your looking for. I own 9 snare drums and I would recommend a Pearl Chad Smith signature snare. They are about $220 US and they will hold up to any shell. I agree that falam heads are great for snares. Ever since I heard...
