    Some USB questions

    Hey, thanks everyone! this has been very helpful. As far as asking to much for under 200, I don't need 8 channels, but that being said the Tascam comes pretty damn close to my price range. On a side note, I discovered Asio4all while doing some research, and amazingly it fixed my latency...

    Some USB questions

    Ooops. What I meant by question number 3 is can you record 8 inputs to 8 seperate tracks in your software with USB? At one point I thought I read that that will only work with firewire interfaces, and that USB only allowed 2 track recording.

    Some USB questions

    So, I just bought an Alienware 14x. I've been recording for years on my desktop, but this is the first time I've tried to use a laptop. Obviously, the Realtek crap card isn't working very well (interestingly it works pretty good in Ubuntu with Audour 2, but in Windows 7 using Sonar 7 it sucks...

    Moving to multi-channel recording

    Ok, I'm tired of recording one track at a time. It's been fun for like 4 years now, but I'm looking to expand my universe. Let me tell you what I want, and you tell me my best option. Keep in mind, I'm looking for the most bang for the buck. I want at least 8 inputs, mostly instrument mic's...

    Looking for keyboard

    Ok, let me say that I have played piano for a long time, and own a few keyboards. Hey, I have an SK-1 even. Didn't realize they were that cool until I started reading through this forum. Mines not pink, though. Anyway... Can you all answer a few questions. I want to use it for Sonar 2...

    monitors for $375.00

    Ok, here's the deal. I won some Event PS 8's on ebay for 300.00. The seller claims that he wanted to put a reserve of 375.00, but forgot. He's refusing to sell them for 300.00, and becuase I havn't sent money (due to our disagreement) I have no "legal" recourse with e-bay. He will sell them...

    bi-amped monitors... newbie

    Ok, I'm looking at getting some monitors. What are "bi-amped" monitors, and is it better to get bi-amped, or active monitors that aren't bi-amped. Does this mean that only one speaker is powered, and it powers the other speaker with a patch chord?

    Connecting mixer to sound card

    Ok. I am about to prove that I am a big noob! I've been recording for a long time on my PC, but I want to take it up a notch. I need some help with connections. The first thing I want to do is get some monitors. I havn't decided which ones yet, and am still pouring over all the forum posts...

    help... guitar shopping

    Thanks everyone. I found a Takamine that I really like. It's a little out of my price range, so I put it on lay away. I should have it paid of in a few months.

    Who made you want to play??

    My favorite thing about Gilmour is how humble he is. He always says he's not that good of a guitar player, he just plays with the hands god gave him. He can't play fast or technical, so he just hits the right notes and gives every note as much feeling as he can. And man can he hit em'... Has...
