    some chunes for you guys...

    I've been lurking around here for awhile, enjoying a lot of your tunes and never really posted a lot of my shit. These are a few songs I recorded last year for an album called "Lunar Ecstasy". I used Cool Edit with a DMP3 preamp and Rode NT1 (but it still sounds ok, hehe). For my new music I've...

    sibilance

    Is it better to tackle sibilance right away with mic positioning, or do you like to use de-essers or eq? And if so, do you prefer to de-ess or eq per-"S" or over the entire track? I've not had this problem yet, because my DMP3 only goes up to 10k, but I've got a new pre on the way. Thanks for...

    Decent Budget Monitors?

    I currently use regular Bose PC speakers for monitors and would like to step it up a notch with real recording monitors. I figure anything's better than what I'm using! Can anyone recommend some halfway decent monitors for under 200 bucks?

    Audiophile 2496 to E-mu 1212m - upgrade or headache?

    I'm considering giving the E-mu 1212m card a go, after using the Audiophile 2496 for a few years. I guess I'm falling for the hype...do you guys agree this is a worthwhile upgrade - or is it just a can of worms? I know the E-mu stuff has a reputation of being new and a little "buggy", while...

    question about plugin latency

    Hi - Is it true that a plugin with a large degree of latency will cause a delay when you listen to it in a session, but it doesn't affect mixdown? In other words, if you have a small annoying delay on a track because of a plugin, do you need to move it a few ticks, or will it right itself when...

    Vocals - Compress or Limit?

    Hey - I've always used a 4:1 compression on vocals - but I notice a lot of limiter plugins have vocal presets. What's the deal with this? Is it better to compress or limit a lead vocal? Thanks!

    Convolution Verb Impulses questions...

    Hi - I've been messing with SIR for a few hours with some impulses from Voxengo...it sounds awesome. The thing is - if I'm recording a 24/44 project and use an impulse with 16/44 resolution, will it actually degrade my audio? And where can I get some great 24 bit impulses from? Thanks! Jeff

    Johnson J-Station :: Favorite Bass Tones?

    Hey All -- I've been using pretty much the same settings for my bass tones - Rock amp, bass 10, mid 3, treble 4. Does anyone here have any tips on getting a great Paul McCartney-esque tone with the J-Station, either with plugin effects applied or with the JS alone? Thanks!

    New 2nd HD - which folders to change?

    I just bought a second internal HS for audio. Which folders should be set to go there by default in Sonar now? Just the Waves and per-project folders? Thanks!

    Pitch Correction in Wavelab?

    Hey All - I just bought Wavelab Essentials. I notice it's got a pitch correction function...and says nothing about it in its manual. So what's the deal with "semitones" and "cents"? How many "semitones" and "cents" are there in a half step? Thanks!

    bouncing ReWire/VSTi's to audio

    Hi - I'm having trouble bouncing a track from my VSTi drum synth (Microtonic) to audio. You have to automate changes in an internal sequencer and record onto a track. It doesn't seem to record any audio when I hit record and the VSTi is playing its' beats. It works nicely in FL Studio...

    Orchestral Samples for VSampler?

    Phase correction plugs?

    Hi - I just finished recording some good tracks for a new song. The only challenge I have is a light phasing on certain parts...it actually sounds pretty cool, but I thing if the phasing was corrected, the punch would improve. It happened between a doubled acoustic guitar part. Micing...

    Sonic Charge Microtonic

    Hi - Does anyone else use the Microtonic here? It sounds amazing. I'm having trouble properly setting it up in Sonar 3... I can hear it and program it by putting Sonar on "record", but it doesn't actually record what I'm hearing. Can I play the microsonic without hitting "record" on a Sonar...

    longer effect previews?

    Hey all - Is there a way to extend Sonar's effect processing previews? It only loops back 3 seconds or so of audio... Also - can you A/B the processing in real time? Seems like I have to click "stop" each time. Then re-apply another effect...

    external hard drive - recommendations?

    Hi - I'm thinking about getting an external hard drive for my new pc - just for audio. Any suggestions? What do I look for as far as speed and silence? I only have a 40 G hard drive. Won't take much to fill that...
