    Love Letters And Whispered Dreams

    http://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=6793482 Old song I re-recorded recently. I'm going to be revisiting it again. I'm thinking of doing away with the current percussion completely, maybe trying something deeper like a tympani or concert bass drum. Not crazy about the strings as I listen more...

    Allocating More RAM to Reaper?

    Maybe I'm thinking about it backwards but here's what I've run into a few times lately... I've got 4 GB of RAM, and never think I've come even close to using all of it, but Reaper seems to run out of memory when using even somewhat memory intensive VSTi's. Say I'll have Omnisphere with one of...

    MIDI Editing Question

    Not sure how to phrase this, hopefully my explanation works... When I'm editing MIDI, usually SD2.0 grooves, sometimes I want to add another measure or section in between two existing sections. Right now I have to manually ctrl-click everything before or after the area I want to add to, to move...

    Once Went To Church

    Just looking for commentts on whatever you wish to comment on! Production, songwriting, arrangement, etc. I know the vocals are a bit pitchy in spots, the harmonies in the chorus need work too. Still struggling with mixing drums on a fuller production like this...

    Any good MIDI loop (?) sites

    Not sure what you'd call them...loops, sequences, etc. But basically, I'm wondering if there's any sites where you could download, say, a nice little fiddle or banjo riff to add some flavor to a country song for example. I've tried searching Google and all I can find are sites for popular songs...

    How do you set your projects up?

    I need to get into the habit of organizing my music a little better, now that I'm comfortable using Reaper, I'm just curious how you guys go about it? Is it as simple as having a folder for each project so all the audio files are in one place? It does that automatically right? Saves the .wav...

    Fantom X8 As MIDI Controller?

    Sooo...I've got a Fantom X8 (I'm sure you guessed that already) and an M-Audio Firewire 1814. Currently running Reaper. I've got the MIDI cables hooked up (Fantom's Out to 1814's In and vice-versa) But I can't for the life of me figure out how to sync them or anything. I've googled until I...

    Our City

    Entry for a song contest, sounds great on the studio monitors, not so great on the laptop. I'd like to find a happy medium so I'm looking for thoughts on how it sounds on all setups, thanks! http://soundclick.com/share?songid=7538322 I've got a few spots where I'll probably re-do the vocals

    Bass Strings Too Short?

    So I'm completely new to bass playing, just scored a Traben Chaos Obsession 4 string offa Ebay. So I take off the shiny new strings because I notice a lot of gunk on the fretboard, get to work with some lemon oil. I was under the impression it was a 34" scale bass (a measuring tape comfirmed...

    Building A DAW PC

    Sorry, I searched but it seems a lot of the threads are a year + old. So I'm switching from a stand-alone recorder to a computer based DAW. I'm building the PC from scratch, I have none of the components besides the monitors and microphones. Is there anything I should be aware of especially...

    Workstation Desk

    Moving my home studio. Need a new desk to set it all up in the new room. I have a Fantom X8 (read: heavy ass keyboard). Basically I need something that can hold the PC keyboard above or below the Fantom. Right now I have 2 desks set in a corner but the new room is going to have a bit less room...

    JM27 Shockmounts

    I just got a pair of JM27's and the shockmounts that came with them, don't seem to fit on a regular mic stand? The threads seem too small.

    Ami F33

    Anybody have any experience with this mic? Did a search with no results (at least from what I could see). There's a couple on Ebay, look like a decent mic but can't find much info on them.

    BR1600 + Fantom X8 = Odd Problem

    Ok, so I hook up my new Fantom to the BR1600. When I record in multi-track mode, the song from my Fantom plays in a very smushed, almost mono pan level (listening through the BR1600) Even though it's recording to two tracks. When I try to record in stereo mode...nothing records? WTF. It plays...

    Question About Samples

    I see a lot of sample CDs out there for sale and I'm just curious, when you buy...say...an orchestral or strings sample CD, are you stuck with whatever note/bpm the sample is recorded at? Or does it depend on the sampler's time-stretch/pitch functions? OR does it depend on the quality of the...

    BR1600 Pre-Amps

    Just wondering what the opinions are on the stock pre-amps with the system? Been thinking about getting a stand-alone pre-amp when I get a new vocal mic. Would it make much of a difference?

    Keyboards and a BR1600

    Right now I own a BR1600 and am planning on adding a keyboard to my setup in the near future (right now everything I play is either played on guitar, sang or generated in the 1600) How would I go about connecting the keyboard to be able to record in the BR1600? I was reading up on the Fantom Xa...

    BR1600: Collaboration Advice

    Ok, simple question, say somebody wants me to add drums or bass guitar or what have you to their tracks... What's the best way to achieve this with the BR1600? So far I could only think of importing the track as a Loop Sample?
