    Processor overloads with a few plug-ins

    I think you need to increase not only buffers in your 1010 panel, which you already did, but also inside Cubase. Look for VST performance settings. Very ofter plugins use 32 bit depth for internal processing only. Therefore you can safely lower your recording bit depth to 24. If you do that...

    garageband.com

    I've had a couple of tunes that spent couple years at garageband.com. During that time I've seen the review process come to a complete halt for several months. Then they went through several reorganizations, which pretty much ruined consistency of review process. My songs rolled back every...

    levelling songs loudness

    What if someone do not plan or do not have $500 to pay to a mastering engineer? Then what? Some of the "pro" guys lost ability to understand that there are people who are doing things just for fun. Learning how to do certain things is big part of the fun. Hiring a "pro" may be considered an...

    Yes, its like I ask: "Is this particular income taxable or not?" You answer: "Hire a CPA". Your mixes or your clients' mixes? According to your website you advertise Blue Bear Sound to prospective clients as a single point of contact for all needs from inception to completion, including...

    levelling songs loudness

    Since you asked, I'll try to explain. I asked a specific practical question, which you, as a pro are fully capable to answer. Instead, all you say is that mastering house would be your first choice. I wouldn't mind such an answer, if you suggested a second choice, or a third. I wouldn't mind...

    levelling songs loudness

    Bruce, I understand that Blue Bear Sound can offer many services, but this is obviously not what I asked about. To avoid further misunderstanding, I rephrase the question: how do you make several consecutive songs sound leveled?

    If my MOBO fried one of MY CPU's does that automatically mean the MOBO is bad?

    Could it be a problem with the cooler instead?

    cpu load: 100% for 15 minutes during cubase mixdown..normal??

    This may not be correct. Even if your track is not playing any sound at some point in time, for your system it is still an active track. I don't think that deleting empty space in your project window changes anything. You need to remove or disable that track to prevent your system from...

    cpu load: 100% for 15 minutes during cubase mixdown..normal??

    Why are you using Windows task manager to monitor the cpu load? Aren't there built-in CPU and HDD load indicators in Cubase, like there are in Nuendo? One instant way to lower the load on CPU is to render a track with most plugins load back into the project. Then for playback or mixdown you...

    Delta 1010, Windows XP, IRQ Issues

    Delta needs unique IRQ. I believe actual number does not matter. If it shares IRQ with some other device - you need to diable IRQ steering.

    Recording PCs and the Internet

    My music PC is used solely for music. In addition to the convenience of not worrying about any internet related headaches, I have all network related services of the OS disabled which saves resources. In addition all computer hardware/software functions are optimised for audio application.

    Yamaha Motif ES with mLAN16E

    Still trying to have someone give an answer. For those who may not know, adding mLAN16E expansion to Motif ES changes it into multichannel firewire audio/MIDI computer interface. It also becomes word clock and DSP processor. All for additional $300. So I think it is interesting to know what...
