I'm trying to find out what setup is needed to run an Alesis DM10x edrum set to Native Instruments Battery 4, with zero latency? The goal is to record my drummer friend playing in real time, both the midi notes and the audio produced by Battery 4 as well. I would also like to be able to run a...

So my drummer friend picked up a used Alesis DM10x and I was at his place checking it out. When he plays using the electronic sounding kits, the wildest stuff comes out. I want to use it in my next project, so I'm trying to figure out the best way to get him recording the stuff. I know I could...

I'm looking through the manual and seeing that input #1 is a high-impendance input for electric guitar or bass. Does this mean I can't use any of the other inputs for electric guitar or bass and get a good result? I was hoping to record multiple guitars/bass at the same time with this, which was...

I'm trying to figure out exactly what specs I need for zero-latency (or as close as possible) recording/monitoring using a PC. I don't record a lot of tracks at the same time, but I do layer a lot of tracks per song. I also need to be able to use a good deal of plugins/virtual instruments...

I've bought a CAD M179 mic and an accompanying power supply. With my previous microphone, a cheapo Peavey mic that required no power supply, I was simply plugging it into the back of my Boss GS-10 and recording the clean signal using the direct/effect option (records the direct clean signal to...

I read that this is the best section of the forum to request collaborations. I apologize if that is not the case. I have a few songs which are in need of bass tracks - mainly an alternative/heavy rock type of sound. I can't offer any compensation other than naming you as the bass player in...

When you do your own recording but hire people to mix and master the material, who does vocal corrections/edits... like smoothly matching up doubled vocals, fixing pitch problems, etc. Does the mixing engineer handle these kinds of edits? If not, is there someone I can find around here who is...

I am recording with a Gibson/Epiphone electric. It doesn't have a model name on it, but it looks like the pictures of the SG model per its shape, color, pickguard, and knobs/switch. I know absolutely nothing about guitar tone or how I should be setting these knobs. I've written most of my...

So, I have been recording using a Peavey microphone that appears to be selling for about twenty-thirty bucks on Ebay. Obviously not ideal. I'm trying not to spend too much, but I do need to upgrade. Here are the mics I'm looking at: at2020 sm57/sm58 mxl v-67g AKG C2000B cad m179 These are...

We're almost finished recording our stuff (using Reaper) and are going to have it mixed/mastered by someone else since we're all rank amateurs and we know it. My question is, what do we need to do in order to get our recorded material completely ready for mixing/mastering before we turn it...
