I just bought this interface the other day and I'm having issues with it. I'm using it with Windows 8 64bit, Core i7, and FL Studio. It works great for a few minutes and I can record great sounding tracks(I have a full drumkit mic'd up and I'm using all 8 of the XLR inputs simultaneously). But...

I checked Youtube for a review and couldn't really find anything. So I was wondering if anybody here knows if these are any good? I currently use a Keystudio 49 as a controller and a Line 6 UX2 as an audio interface for recording guitar and monitoring. I should mention I don't record vocals, so...

I'm using a Line 6 Toneport UX2 interface currently. I also have an ADAT II and was wondering if and how I can use it to add 8 inputs/outputs. The UX2 has a spdif out, but I'm not sure if this is what I need. My PC also has a ditital audio in and out, but I don't know what its for and I'm...

I have: PC with one VGA output Computer monitor with VGA input HDTV with VGA, S-Video and RCA inputs I'm looking for a cheap way to hook up both of these monitors. Unlike most, I don't really need to expand my screen or have a mixer on one monitor and a tracking window in another. My setup...

I was just wondering what the difference between dual and quad-core processors and Core i3, i5, and i7 are. The latest version of my DAW said that a new feature was that it was optimised for the multicore processors. Can I assume the newer ones will only improve performance? I'm thinking about...

I just got an eKeys 49 for really cheap, but my computer won't seem to recognize it. I don't even hear the USB alert when I plug it in. However, I also have a Keystation Pro 88 that works fine, and according to M-Audio's website, they should work with the same drivers. Any suggestions?

http://www.openlabs.com/nekoxxl.html I was just checking out some demo's if these products and they're looking pretty cool to me. The only question I have is are they really worth $7,000? Their catch phrase is something like "A laptop is not made for producing music, but the Neko is." That...

Long before I started working with midi and sequencing, I always recorded my audio to a click. So using midi to perfectly sync drum samples and keyboard has come really natural to me. I've actually very recently learned how to automate tempo changes, although I've never really needed to because...

Just got one of these and I'm having trouble getting it to work. I'm using FL Studio and when I hook it up, I'm able to use the transport buttons and asign all of the sliders and knobs to whatever I want, but I can't get the keys to play any instruments. The "midi activity" led doesn't even...

I've been thinking about this and I have no idea where to start. It won't help that I'm extremely picky and prefer styles that aren't exactly mainstream. I'm mostly into gothic rock/metal(anything from Evanescence to Trans-Siberian Orchestra). I guess this section focuses mainly on singing and...

I'm using FL Studio 9 and I'm trying to understand the relationship between midi data and automation. I hooked up a keyboard to use as a midi controller, and the keys were working fine, but the mod wheel wasn't functioning. So I need to setup some other sort of connection to be able to use it? I...

I just want to see if there's anyone around here that does this sort of music and actually gets it used. I'm not worried so much about trying to make money - I'd let someone use my music for free, at least to get my foot in the door. I may sound naive, but the artistic integrity of the work...

I bought a Peavey Scorpion that I found on Craigslist for $40 thinking it would be a good upgrade to a Peavey 1x15 cabinet that I have. I didn't bother to examine the existing speaker, but I've used it quite a bit and found it somewhat lacking... I just couldn't quite get volume I needed without...

Anybody know how I can use a DIY piezo drum trigger to take the place of the keys in a midi keyboard?

I was wondering if someone could direct me as to where to look for vocal tracks that I could use for remixes or just playing around with. They could be popular songs heard on the radio or otherwise. I'm actually really into female-fronted symphonic/gothic rock/metal, but I'll take anything. Not...

I'm currently using Audition for recording guitar tracks and FL Studio for vsti plugins. The problem I'm having involves the two programs having different timing. In other words, 140 bpm in one program is not 140 in the other. I've tried it both ways - importing audio clips that I recorded to...

I'm looking for "one shot" samples of a certain type of beat that I hear in a lot of gothic/industrial metal. I've found plenty of loops of various types of techno/dance styles and they really aren't what I need. The style I'm looking for is usually used for really slow beats and the sounds...

Someone recently told me that I can put certain files on an external hard drive in order to lighten the load when running a lot of files in a multitracking session. I sort of understand this, and I've already moved my Adobe Audition Temp folder to another drive as instructed. But is there a...
