I didn't sleep well, just got up, am a bit bored and decided that it would be me who'll write the 30.000th post in the Mic forum ... yeay :o so ... this is 29.997

Is there any use for a POD or V-Amp with a half-acoustic guitar?

is it necessary/worthwhile to buy special speaker cables to connect monitor speakers? Could I not just use some instrument cable?

I need to buy cables and just saw that there's a distinction between lo-z and hi-z cables. lo-z = low impedance? I don't really know. What's the difference and please tell me what I need? I want to connect: a) my mic to a preamp (VC1Q, Envoice) b) my preamp and compressor (RNC) to my soundcard...

I just saw this thread asking for Grace 101 users ... and big surprise, only one person turned out to own the Grace. I found a similar thread on audioforums.com with again only one owner. I thought that's weird ... so many people recommend the Grace but noone really buys it. So, maybe that's...

If somebody could please help me on this one ... I want to buy Cubase VST32 now and later get their free upgrade to Cubase SX .... Can somebody tell me how this entire deal will work? If I buy VST32 now, should I register with Steinberg right away or wait until after the release of SX? What...

Browsing through the web, I happened to come across the PS110B which is a budget subwoofer by Tannoy. Apparently, quite a number of people on this BBS are happy with their Reveal Actives so I was wondering what the general opinion would be on a Reveal Active/PS110 combo? I'm moving from the UK...

Reveal actives + sub ... ooops !!!! sincerest apology ... I accidentally posted this question in the Racks forum, thinking I was in in Mixing & Mastering .... !!!!

It seems like people still have to wait quite a bit to get their hands on an RME HDSP Multiface. What's the deal with that card? I hear a number of people abandoning their D-1010 for the Multiface but haven't read any professional review of the Multiface. Well, I put an order on the Multiface...

3D Audio offers two micpre shootout CDs. Sounds like something everybody should get .... including me of course. My problem is that I have no clue what preamps are being tested on the respective CDs. Can somebody shine light onto this issue and write down the pres that are on the two CDs?They...

What type of preamps and compressors (VCA or valve) do producers of hit pop songs use? I'm talking here about songs that are played by the average Pop radio stations airing songs by N'Sync, J Lo, Ricky Martin ... I was told that VCA/electro based compressors are the norm. If that is so, then...

I'm one of the many people trying to find a good mic-pre, compressor combination. My search has narrowed down to the Mindprint Envoice and the dbx 576. I need a unit mainly for vocal recordings (and maybe at very few times to add some accoustic guitar). The songs I record are Pop- and R&B style...

I'm having a hard time finding information on how to strip down and modify my Win OS (currently XP) to work faster and more stable. I know there's a lot of stuff in XP (or any Windows OS for that frickin' matter) that gets started on start up and keeps on running in the background - killing...

The RME HDSP Multiface has three different 'standardized' studio levels. Reference .............0 dBFS @...........Headroom Lo Gain.................+19 dBu.............15 dB +4 dBu................. +13 dBu.............9 dB -10 dBV.................+2 dBV...............12 dB Can someone explain...

I'm new to this so please throw me some 2 cents ... I don't have an external mixer ... so how would I use my outboard RNC (compressor)? I was thinking that I could have a signal go into input 1, have that signal routed to output 4 and connect output 4 with the RNC ... then connect the RNC send...
