    XP 64 has dropped

    And unlike another company's so-called 64-bit OS, this one actually is 64-bit. And it won't cost you $129 to upgrade. ;) Until July 31st, it's free.

    Vegas vs. Acid

    I had some thoughts while reading through the Acid 5.0 thread, but thought I'd start a new thread instead of crapping up that thread further. So, Acid now has a fairly significant number of audio features that are missing from Vegas. I've been a Vegas user since version 1, but it seems that as...

    Fixing monitors

    I was using one of my Yorkville YSMs as a center channel in my home theater system while the real center channel was being shipped. So, center channel arrives and I take the Yorkie off the entertainment center and put the center channel up there. In that span of time, my 1.5 year old snuck up...

    My first remix project.

    WAR This is my first real attempt at doing a remix. Be forewarned - it's rap/rock, it has entirely too much profanity, and if you're fond of the current president you probably won't care too much for the subject matter. I think I'm approaching final mix. I'm noticing quite a big difference...

    Amp + Computer = ?

    I'm thinking about stuffing my computer into a rackmount case and was wondering if there any reasons I shouldn't put it near my amp? I wouldn't have thought so, but my amp makes my monitor kinda quiver a bit when I turn the amp on.

    I need a cheap mixer

    I'm in dire need of a mixer, and with my first youngin on the way, I'd like to spend as little as possible. My two candidates are the Behringer (shh!) UB1204-PRO and the Soundcraft Spirit Notepad. Both are around the same price and both have similar feature sets. I'm leaning towards the...

    In Apple's infinite wisdom...

    I admit to bashing Apple a bit from time to time, but I thought some might find this interesting. I saw on a computer forum today that Apple is removing all VST support from their version of Logic and replacing it with their own proprietary plugin. Wonders never cease.

    J-Station, POD, or V-Amp

    I'm trying to figure out which is the best of these three. I'm not a guitarist, so I'm thinking that in my ignorance each will sound pretty good. Right now I'm leaning towards the J-Station because the software looks pretty nice and it's pretty cheap. Opinions?

    Got my MXL 1006 today and it's....

    ...green. A flat olive green. I know some of ya'll have a 1006, do yours look like the one on MXL's site?

    MXL 1006 or V67?

    I'm looking to spend around $100 on a condenser mic and it appears that these two are my top candidates - other model suggestions are appreciated. So, what are the key differences between the two (the MXL site isn't particularly informative)? The mic will serve as a vocal mic and perhaps as an...

    Adcom anyone?

    My dad is considering an Audio Research or Mark Levinson amp to replace his Adcom GFA-555 amplifier. I'm thinking about encouraging my dad to do this so I can buy his Adcom and use it to power my Yorkvilles. Anybody ever use an Adcom amp for monitoring, or have any reasons why this would be a...

    Digi 001 users, I need your system info

    I'm building a PC for a friend who will be using the Digi 001. According to Digidesign's website, the only Athlon solutions that are compatible are ones based on the VIA KT133A chipset. I was wondering if any of ya'll are running the Digi with any other "unsupported" chips. I really would...

    Be gentle, it's my first time.

    Ok, here's a rough draft of something I've been working on. Opinions and criticism are appreciated. I think I need to tweak the EQ of the kick and bass line that kicks in around 1:45, but not sure what frequency. It sounds fine in my headphones (what I'm mixing on till my Yorkvilles come in)...

    Yorkville YSM1i or Tannoy Proto-J?

    My budget has dictated to me that these are two monitors I can afford. Anybody have any preference between the two, or any pros and cons? Should I be looking at any other monitors in this price range?

    Win2k + SB Live + MIDI......how?

    I've been doing audio work for a couple years now, but I've finally decided to delve into MIDI. I have an Alesis DM5 and a Yamaha pf88 that I've tried to get communication with my computer, but to no avail. I'm using one of those single port midi cables and I've fiddled with some of the...
