    Word-Clock Technique

    I am going to be purchasing a new AD/DA with word-clock in the near future, probably either Apogee Rosetta 200 or RME Fireface 400. Both of these units have word-clock I/O for syncing other devices. If I want to use the interface as the clock source for my music software can I just run the...

    ADC/DAC user experience

    I have a friend that uses an Apogee Rosetta interface and runs it through his M-Audio Delta 1010 using the word clock for his home studio. He says this is just about as good as it gets for home recording. Therefore, his recording interface group is well over $2000. I know you can spend more...

    can volume damage a condensor mic?

    I have only used a dynamic mic to record electric guitar, and usually you want the amplifier to be extremely loud. Yet I have read of people using condensor mics to record electric guitars. Is there danger of damaging the mic? Are amplifier levels supposed to be lower for condensor mic...

    nt1a, luna, solaris, oh my

    I am looking to buy a budget condenser mic in the range of $200-300. I have heard great things about the Rode NT1A, M-Audio Luna and M-Audio Solaris. Anyone know if the Solaris is really worth the extra $100? Sure the M-Audio mics are good but are they as good as the proven NT1A? Are they warmer...

    I need to power my monitors

    I just bought a pair of KRK ST-8 monitors and I need an amp for them. The problem is that I have read conflcting opinions on what sort of amp is compatible with what speakers. The KRK manual says an amp should be capable of outputing 1.5 times the wattage of the speakers to keep from...
