Hey all. I use Reaper through Windows 7 64bit, my computer is an HP Pavilion Slimline Desktop. Im having a terrible time with exporting/rendering and the sound quality of my songs. I spend a lot of time recording and mixing the songs carefully, only to have the sound quality derailed when...

Hey all. Im brand new to MIDI. In the process of making my first rap/hip hop beat. I play instruments as well and have been in metal bands(weird mix, I know..). Anyways, Im hoping to bring that influence into my beats and sound altogether. First MIDI project is going pretty well, but now that Im...

Hey all. Just got most of my gear in, and Im wondering how to plug my ISA One into my MobilePre?? I think the ISA One is supposed to plug into the MobilePre's Line In, but I get confused with the setup. Ill try attaching pics and hopefully you guys can tell me which exact jacks to plug into each...

Hey all. I cant say I know a lot about computers for audio recording, but I dont have a large budget at all. I was looking at a Dell laptop that was $600 and a few towers around $350-$400, but I was wondering just how cheap I can go and still get by? I dont need a system thats super powerful...

This isnt really meant to be a DAW vs DAW thread, so heres the situation. I used a version of Cubase a long time ago when I was first learning from a fellow artist who engineers his own music. The artist I do music with now and I bought some gear off another friend and it included Magix Music...

Ive been looking to pick up the FocusRite ISA One classic, and am feeling pretty good about it, but I was wondering if there are any other mic preamps in this price range that can rival it or top it. It will be for vocals, not instruments at this point so Im looking for a quality preamp in this...

The reason Im asking is because people speak highly of the RE20, but I see it mostly associated with micing drums rather than vocals, though Ive heard/seen examples of what it sounds lik with vocals. I like the fact that it has the high pass/low cut switch. Ive also heard a lot of people speak...

I was looking into plug-ins like Waves, UAD II, T-Racks, and I was wondering if they are compatible with Magix products(Music Maker, Samplitude, etc..) or how I can find out if they are. All of those plug-ins are a little expensive, though Im sure they are worth it, so I was also wondering if...

Im putting together a home studio and already picked out everything that Im getting. For mics Im gonna start my future collection with a Shure SM 58 and Beta 58, but I know eventually Im going to want some condensors as well. So, I was wondering if you had to pick between the AT4040 or Bluebird...

After youve recorded vocal tracks with proper microphone placement/technique and gain adjustments/levels, what should I apply first? I usually stick with EQ with high pass/low cut filter, compression, and a few delays n chorus here n there track by track. Then I run a group of tracks, like all...
