Opinions? I was planning to get a Motu M4 interface. I like having the permanent extra two inputs for my keyboard and the display etc. However I helped a friend get a new job and surprisingly he bought me a Volt 276 as a gift (great to have good friends). I could return it but (1) seems rude...

Hi all, Hobbyist, time for a new interface. I like both of these two. Volt is twice as much but has the "cool" :) preamps etc Minifuse has good software package but I own most of it already Any opinions ?

Just wondering if it's worth it? I just do home recording as a hobby. I've had the UX2 for years and it has no problems that I know about. However all these videos for volt 276 and MiniFuse get me thinking I should upgrade. Will I really see any benefits?

Hey there, I am a simple home recorder with a question. Please keep that in mind when answering ;) I have started having trouble with vocal volumes in my mixes. Typically if I get the levels right on one system, they are typically too loud or too quiet on another. For example a good monitor...

I'll take the risk :) I'm a 100% just-for-fun home musician. I have been recording with a copy of a SM57. A friend has recommended that even a $100 condenser would make a big difference to my vocal tracks, currently I have trouble when I get loud or high with the quality of the recording...

I'm not sure if this is a MIDI problem, soundcard problem or software problem so I'll start here. I just got a new soundcard (Delta 24/96) and set everything up. I am recording using Acid 5.0, a MIDI Keyboard and Steinberg The Grand soft synth. When I record the MIDI and playback the MIDI...

After buying my delta 24/96 based on recommendations. I finally installed it today. I'm confused about drivers. I downloaded the latest from the website which I believe are WDM, how do I go about getting ASIO drivers (I don't really understand what they are) I record using Sony Acid and I'm...

I purchased this card after recommendations here but now I've received it I'm a little confused. The card does not have a standard Audio Out like my previous card that I can use to connect to my PC speakers for playing games etc. How do I connect this card to standard PC speakers - do I need...

I tried a cheapo soundcard this weekend (Soundblaster Live 24) someone gave me to see if it improved my latency. It really did not. However I have no idea how/whether I am using the WDM or ASIO drivers. Do I just install them and it will use them or would I have to do something specific to...

I'm sure it's been asked many times and I apologize. Here is my situation. I have a good PC but it has onboard sound. I have an external recorder that I use for most things but I have just started to get into MIDI, I'm looking for a not too expensive card that will do a good job of playing back...

Another question I am recording MIDI using a MicroKorg through an M-audio interface to a PC using ACID to record. I have found that when I try and record using anything other than standard MIDI I get a slight delay, I can understand this. However when I record using standard MIDI and then...

I'm new to MIDI though not new to computers or recording. I got everything working, MicroKorg through m-audio interface to PC. However when I converted the file to WAV and sent it to my recording device to play along with guitar I found a problem. The MIDI tracks were not tuned the same as...

I'm having a really tough time getting to grips with MIDI, I'm good with audio equipment, good with PC's but MIDI defeats me at every turn. Right now I own a crappy keyboard and a m-audio $50 MIDI interface. Generally this works but I don't have good MIDI recording software. This week I...

I think I'm ready to move into the MIDI controller world from my home keyboard. It seems there are a few different low cost options, any thoughts would be appreciated. http://www.zzounds.com/a--2676837/item--MDOKEYSTAT49 No knobs etc. but a great price...

Please help me out with some general advice/discussion. I'm a home recorder just doing it for fun. I currently use a Yamaha PSR home keyboard to add some bits and pieces but it's obviously limited. I want to upgrade and could spend around $500. I've looked at Yamaha DGX305 Advantage...
