    I Need Hookup Help!

    Lets say I had a hard-disk recorder (like the HD24), an analog mixer and a preamp. I read somewhere that the recorder's outs go to the mixer's inputs and the mixer's outs go to the recorder's inputs. But don't the preamp's outs have to go to the recorder's inputs? So two things are going to the...

    Combining DAW and Standalone HD Recorder

    For the last month I've been trying to decide between a computer-based or a standalone setup. Each have their strengths and their weaknesses and I figured I do not want to lose out on anything, so why not combine both methods? I've seen people's gear list comprise of an Alesis HD24 and a...

    Mixer/Control Surfaces - I need advice!

    Freezing Midi Tracks in Cubase LE?

    I saw someone using Cubase (I don't know which version) "freeze" a midi track so it would use less resources on the PC thus letting him record more midi tracks without his computer going crazy, lol. Can you do this on Cubase LE? It would be really helpful because I record a lot of songs with...

    Here's what I don't get. If I purchased a computer desk like THIS and put an Audio Interface on the rack and plugged in a few mics, wouldn't the wires be in the way of everything? You would have mic wires coming right out of the interface down the center of the desk right over the keyboard...
