I'm currently in the process of building a new room for a small studio in my garage. I'm nearly finished with the framing, and I've found out that I've got a pretty decent surplus of 2x4 studs that I'm considering making some panels out of. Has anyone here used 2x4s for bass trap frames, and...

In the last day or so, I've started running into some issues with noise when recording. I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate 64 with the latest release of Reaper, and an M-Audio 1010LT. The problem doesn't seem to be audible while I'm recording, but when I playback the audio, I get a nasty electrical...

I've tried to figure out if it can be done, and I've searched all over for answers, but I have yet to find anything on the subject. I need to be able to setup Reaper to send Midi Time Code to my keyboard sequencers to control them when I'm tracking. The way I've been working for years is that...

I've heard a lot of different thoughts on using a normalizer in the mastering process... some people really like using it to get even levels on their tracks and a lot of people warn that you should stay away from it like the plague. So I'm looking for your thoughts on this particular process...

I'm looking at the feature comparison chart on Steinberg's site to see what the differences are between the three current releases of Cubase 4 are. Most of it is pretty self explanatory, but Essential 4 doesn't have the ability to record from busses, while the other two versions do. From what...

I've been working on a lot of new material lately, and it's all coming together nicely so far. I haven't added the vocals to either track yet, but it's nice to see where we stand at this point. Take a listen to both of these new songs and let me know how the mix sounds. I'm most interested in...

I've recently changed up a lot of things in my studio to begin working on my band's latest album project, so I'm still getting used to the new setup. Either way, my mix has improved in the process, so I wanted to share a bit of our latest work in progress to see what you guys think of the mix...

I record a LOT of keyboards and electronic drums and I've been throwing around the idea of adding something analog into the chain to warm up the sound before it gets to my computer. I'm not dissatisfied with my keyboard sounds, but I'd like to be able to change their character some. I'm...

Hey everyone... I've been here for a few days now, and have got a lot of great insight into putting together a great studio. I'm currently in the process of rearranging a space that I've been using for awhile in order to make it more functional, so I'm sure I'll be around here more as that...
