    using Firepod with BCF2000 and Keyboard

    Hi, I use the BCF2000 control surface via MIDI (as I use Logic Platinum and the USB connection confuses it!). I Also have a MIDI keyboard. I wish to use them both at the same time via my Presonus Firepod interface. How do I daisychain them? I presume its something to do with the Thru port?

    Recording - getting return on investment and music legal stuff

    Ok, I am recording a band. My gear is in their studio, so I'm their "in house producer" (if you like). I am not charging them... as they have no money to invest. They are managed by the same company as The Verve, Badly Drawn Boy, Klaxons... Their last record (produced as Olympic in London) is...

    mic'ing tiny toms

    Hi, got a kit to record, with 2 tiny toms above the kick drum. If I put mics on top, they are going to get hit, as the drums are so small. I want to close mic them to reduce bleed. They have no skins on the bottom.... perhaps point a 57 into the bottom of each drum? If so, where exactly? cheers

    CPU usage - more than other DAWs?

    I use(d) Logic 5, and it never slowed even with a shed load of FX on lots of tracks. Reaper on the other hand seems to suffer??

    REAPER V's LOGIC

    ok....... fight! I record bands, and do very little MIDI.... So I'm thinking of switching to Reaper, because its quick and stable, and Logic Platinum (as I run a PC) can crash from time to time. I will desperately miss Logic's "Fat EQ" and its delays, but I'm sure there must be some equivalent...

    Reaper 16 tracks at once?

    Hello, I want to record 16 tracks at once with 2 Presonus Firepods. Will Reaper do this? I doing it well with Logic 5 (which is great) but it is a bit unstable. Also I'd ideally run it on a old Sony Vaio 700Mhz laptop with an external usb hard drive. The Firepods won't work with the laptops...
