Hi all I've been having this issue since I've made my computer and I can't figure it out. I know many threads have posted similar issues like this, but I have a computer/rf/electrical noise coming from my HS50m monitors that gets louder when the computer is under stress. It sounds like this...

Is there a way to fast forward the preview when listening to samples in the browser of Ableton? I've got a bunch of stems that don't have any sound until a minute in. I couldn't find an answer to this anywhere, sorry if this is a repost

It's been a while since I've posted in here but I spent a lot of time on this track and will be releasing an album for my solo project (shooting for 8 songs). The drums are played by me, tracked by a friend. All of the production and mixing was by myself. Had a friend do the mastering (I think...

Is there a difference between 1/4" speaker cables and 1/4" guitar cables? I just got a pair of yamaha HS50m's (first pair of monitors) and the last thing I want to do is damage them with regular guitar cables. Am I just worrying too much? Will guitar cables be ok to hook them up to my L/R...

Hey all, So I have a job at apple and get discounts on both m audio and jbl products. With that in mind, any suggestions for my first pair of monitors? I was looking at the BX8's from the m audio line and I don't know much about JBL's lineup, other than a friend told me their frequency response...

I've got a fender hot rod deville 2x12 amp that sounds awesome with clean, but obviously the crunch doesn't cut it for the genre my band is playing. I've been using a boss DS-1 distortion pedal but I'm not entirely happy with the tone. Looking for the standard punk distortion that you know and...

Only mic I have right now is an AKG C1000 and that was given to me for 50 bucks from a friend so I couldn't pass it up. I'm just looking to build up my mic collection to be able to record some versatile things and obviously the sm57 is one of the best for that. Is the es57 any good? It's...

so i just got my new deville from guitar center on black friday. I love the sound and everything but I noticed when I switch channels (with or without the foot pedal) there is a huge click the louder the volume is when i switch between channels. is this normal or should i have it looked...

So I finally got my act together and started up my band with all the music I've been writing over the years. I figure this is the best place to ask cuz I know how knowledgeable the members are here from past experience. So my question to the board is, what are some inexpensive guitar amps that...

Ok so I know I shouldn't do this, but I added vocals to my song after mixing all the instruments. Certain things need to be raised in volumes but I already automated their volumes. Whenever I lower or raise the volumes on the track faders, they read the automation volumes so it doesn't change...

So this is the first time I've fully recorded a song of mine in Logic completely on my own. The drums are midi though so they didn't come out the way I wanted them to. I would much rather record them myself but this was all done in my dorm room so it's all I could manage...

Tell me what you guys think. A friend and I worked with an mbox2 so we only had 2 mics to record the drums with. Just thought this would be the best place to get some criticism though. Thanks in advanced! Oh and I'm not sure if divshare lowers the quality but it seems to be the easiest way to...

http://pro-audio.musiciansfriend.com/product/CAD-CM217-Condenser-Mic-Buy-One-Get-One-FREE?sku=271324 The price scares me but does anyone have any experience with using these as overheads to record drums?

Ok so the past 2 pairs of headphones I used were the bose around - ear headphones. They both broke because I use them not only to mix, but also to blast music full volume when I listen to my iPod while playing the drums. I really feel like these are unreliable drums and I may just be playing too...

So me and a friend that are now both taking music courses in college recorded a song that I wrote. We only worked with an mbox 2 so we could only use 2 mics to record the drums. I've really never mixed anything this complex so I was wondering if someone could throw me some pointers with eqing or...

Ok so I've been researching a while on which interface I should purchase for my first. I've been debating between the mbox 2 (because it comes with PT) and the firestudio. Since I will primarily be recording drums (being my main instrument) I've decided to go with the firestudio. Ideally, I...

Ok so I understand that an audio interface allows the computer to grasp the higher quality sounds from a microphone that the soundcard can't handle. But why do we need a midi interface? Isn't it all computer generated sounds? How much better can an interface make those better? Can someone...

Hey all, I was wondering if this package is really worth the money: http://pro-audio.musiciansfriend.com/product/Shure-Drum-Mic-Package?sku=270263 I know that SM57s are basically universal and used in everything, but they're only 100 bucks seperate. Is the kick drum mic worth it at all? Am I...

Just found out how to sample in logic, here's my first attempt: http://www.divshare.com/download/9690870-9bc

I wanna get an audio interface to record myself singing and playing the guitar for now. Further down the line when I have enough money to buy some SM 57s I want to be able to record drums because that is my main instrument. I'm also currently a student in Drexel's music industry program and...
