I'm looking for wireless cans for tracking in my home studio (range is not an issue, I need 20ft at most) and most of the posts on these are a few years old so there are a lot more choices. My order of importance is thus: 1. Comfort - I'll be wearing these for long amounts of time. 2...

I've got a Farfisa Bravo (web pic) and would love to know how in the hell to tune this thing as it is quite in-the-cracks. I've looked all over it for a screw and took the cover off and didn't see anything obviously adjustable inside. Any ideas? I'm getting the impression any fiddling with...

Hello, I just received a Delta 44 and although I'd planned to remove my SBlive altogether, I'm wondering how my OS's (dual boot NT4.0/98lite) would handle both? Installation tips? Since the 44 doesn't have the analog CD-in I suppose I wouldn't be able to play CDs at all (and what about...

I've monitored on what I could afford at the time, which has been an early '90s Kenwood 70W/channel receiver and a cheap pair of Sony bookshelf speakers. I've gotten pretty used to the sound to created halfway decently transferrable mixes, but I've always kept the treble boost up all the way on...

I have a dual boot 98lite (micro w/ 95 Explorer shell) and NT4 system and I use 98 only when recording w/ CoolEdit and it's been pretty stable. AMDk6-2 333 w/ 64MB (yeah I know, about to order more but I do quite well with just that). I'm just curious if I activate DMA in 98 whether it will...

Hi, this is the 1st mp3 I've posted and I'm not telling my bandmates about it!! I know I've got some problems with the mix - the drums and background keyboard were recorded simultaneously to 2 track on a bad laptop soundcard and the rest was built from there, cheap instruments, heavy mono...

I just got this HEAVY sampler from a friend for $150 and was happy to find the entire sound library on the web, however, I'd like to be able to create and edit some useful "multisounds" on my PC instead of fooling w/ the unit's editor. (ugh) Are there any programs to convert soundfonts to the...

When creating a drum track I start w/ a set of waves (each contains a set of drum samples seperated by a visible seperator) loaded and use only the individual samples I need in the multitrack sequence. So in the multitrack my hihat track has samples of open, closed and loose but all are just...

Hi, I just recorded a demo of a little Tom Waits-ish song using only one SM58 for a mono recording of vocal, acoust gtr, and bass. Although it was just a demo, when I converted it to small mp3 file with halved sample rate I actually like the sound a lot more than the original 16/44.1 wave.. Is...

Hi, I'm highly considering purchasing a Sampson Servo 120 or 170 amp to power my home speakers (using as monitors) until I can afford nearfields and I'm wondering, assuming my current speakers are 8-ohm, will that mean I'll only get 30 to 40W output/channel by using the Sampson as power? Or...

I've always wondered this and I don't think it's specific to by SBLive card. Through software (like Cooledit) I can play .wav files back at almost any sample rate, but I can only <i>record</i> at the standard rates like 48, 44.1, et. al. I'm assuming the software just easily converts the...

Sounds like a fantastic deal for $279 at musician's friend. Haven't been able to find any negatifve feedback.. Anyone here have some gripes for me to consider? How's the manual included? I'm planning on using it in conjunction with the Gadgetlabs 824 (?) 8in 8out card, in case that makes any...

I'm trying to record a sort of minimal song w/ a dark production and I'm recording every instrument seperately in stereo w/ the mics in different places around an empty house w/ wood floors. Has anyone tried to mix a recording like this, where almost everything is pre-reverbed? I'm relying...

I just posted the same question for Cooledit, but anyway I'm about to reinstall my OS and Soundforge (sorry, didn't specify before), but I don't want to lose my user presets (EQ settings, compression settings). Are there any files I should keep/something I can do? [This message has been edited...

Hey gang, is there a way to backup my user presets (for effects like reverb, parametric EQs made especially for my cymbals) so I can do a fresh reinstall? Don't say pencil and paper.. :( mrclay

Apologies for crossposting this, but I'm also checking opinions of mostly Cooledit users (like myself). I've been doing a little research in n-track and it seems to have all the features I'd ever use in SawPro (and easier to wrok with), how does it compare to Cooledit Pro (for multitrack) in...

I've been doing a little research in n-track and it seems to have all the features I'd ever use in SawPro (and easier to wrok with), how does it compare to Cooledit Pro (multitrack) in ease of use/stability? Cooledit has been horribly buggy and crashed my win98 PC so many times I call it...

With the vintage Rhodes and Wurlitzer electric pianos moving at over $500 on ebay (not that ebay doesn't overvalue everything, but..) it seems like some manufacturer would get back into the business of making these beautiful instruments.. How much were they new?

Hey y'all, while I'm stuck here in the software mixing world (and in cooledit :( ) I'm considering working w/ Cake or SawPro for mixing my final tracks w/reatime effects, etc. I'm wondering if these programs allow you to create realtime submixes to send to an effect? From what I've seen of...
