    Crackling in the cans using a Carvin H400 Headphone amp

    If you are referring the the gain per channel on the headphone amp (volume to the phones on each channel) - it appeared to go away, but it was actually still there when we listened closer. We did not try a different source. I sent the source to a different output system (power amp + studio...

    Crackling in the cans using a Carvin H400 Headphone amp

    Can anyone offer some insight into why we are getting an awful crackling in the headphone using the Carvin H400 Headphone amp? I am sending the outputs 1 and 2 from the Delta 1010 to the Carvin Channel A Left and Right Ins. I don't think the input signal is too hot but it is coming directly...

    Sonar + Delta 1010LT & headphone monitoring - Advice, please

    Last night went very well! Success! - Well, let's say 80% success... 4 mics on the kit into 4 tracks - no problem! Guitar, Bass, Keys, Vocals into their own tracks - piece of cake! Hit record, play, stop, listen - sounds great, no dropouts, just how it needs to be! I need to play with mic...

    Sonar + Delta 1010LT & headphone monitoring - Advice, please

    mojew, Thanks for your input. The method I plan to follow for recording my band starts with the hardest part - the rhythm tracks. The reason it is the 'hardest part' is because that will be the only time everyone is tracking simultaneously. All the rest of the tracking should be done via...

    Help understanding my Delta 1010LT

    Thanks for the bumps. I may be able to get away with software monitoring since the ASIO drivers are providing very low latency. Hopefully this means I will be able to send each track (or group of tracks in the case of the drummer) to their own buss and route the buses as needed to the Delta...

    Sonar + Delta 1010LT & headphone monitoring - Advice, please

    This is the way I am going to go, most likely. I was concerned about latency, but using the ASIO drivers it seems that latency is negligible at best at less than 6 ms. So - general mix to A and B in - Aux ins get 'more me' sends. But if for some reason latency does cause problems, I was...

    Help understanding my Delta 1010LT

    Hey all, I have a very sketchy grasp of my new Delta 1010LT and could really use a nice overview of it. It's installed and I have successfully connected outs 1 & 2 to a power amp's channels A & B and gotten a project in Sonar to play through my reference monitors - and it sounded GREAT! I...

    Track Sheet? Patch Diagram? Signal Flow Chart? HELP!

    I am going to be recording my band soon and I am trying to be sure I keep myself organized. To do this, it seems that I need to have some sort of diagram that clearly shows how I am getting instruments/mics from here to there. For example. track 1: KICK - mic. type - preamp - processor - AD/DA...

    Sonar + Delta 1010LT & headphone monitoring - Advice, please

    I plan to record my band using Sonar as my sequencer and a Delta 1010LT as my AD/DA converter. I have a fair idea how I plan to proceed regarding micing the kit and running everyone else in direct but I get confused when it comes to setting up Sonar for monitoring via headphones. I plan to run...

    Micing the drum kit - suggestions, please.

    Thanks! - I am familiar with that technique and I have actually used it with a reasonable degree of success. It's good to have that technique reinforced here. The Church Audio (company name) mics are a pair of very small (stealth) mics used mostly for recording live shows. Those mics, in...

    Micing the drum kit - suggestions, please.

    scorpio01169, I am not dead-set on anything and I understand that purchasing the correct mics for the job is the ideal situation. What I am interested in is IF you only had these mics to work with AND you had to record a drum kit, which would you use to mic the kick? Thanks for your input...

    Micing the drum kit - suggestions, please.

    I am planning on recording my band using what we have available to us (not renting or borrowing extra stuff) We have: 1 Shure SM57 2 Shure SM58's 2 Audix CD11 (not 100% sure on the model, but it looks very similar to an SM58 with an on/off switch) 1 Oktava MC012 (Condenser Mic) + BlueTUBE -...

    Recording a band...Drums first?

    Drums first? Sure! Why not? That is almost always my 'preferred' method when I am the one directing the development of a song. Re: Metronome/Click-track = Good/Bad? I am a bass player and I practice with a metronome. I also practice with a drum machine. Why? Because IF I have to go into the...
