First you want to make sure you have DFD (direct from disk) enabled. That way your samples stream from the hard drive instead of it being loaded to memory. Loading to memory is better since its faster but you need to have lots of memory and some of the samples are rather complex and take up lots...

I would say grab a clip of his voice (James) from like say, “ Coming to America” or some other movie with his voice and try to make it sound like Darth Vader. If you cant succeed there, then there’s no hope in making your friends voice sound like him. but I think that would be a good experiment.

I ran into latency problems with my emu0404 and a midi to USB adaptor. I bought a midi cord and problem solved. I to don’t like the idea of having and audio interface with midi and then having to buy another midi interface. I mean you paid for it why should you have to shell out more cash. Any...

I usually drive under the speed limit. Saves on gas, pisses off tailgaters forcing them to get on the fast lane, and I’m more able to keep control of the vehicle if I ever start to swerve. With everyone whining about gas prices and the environment I’m doing my part by slowing down. It’s odd that...

The technique is all lighting and using the macro option on the camera. This way you can get up and close and capture more detail. If you use a tripod you can set slower shutter speeds to capture more light in low light conditions and you set it on a timer so you don’t shake the camera and give...

yes. Its also stereo so you can use an insert cable (Y cable) to split the signals that go the mixer. $600 will not get you what you want unless you come across a once in a life time deal or some one holding a garage sale and doesn’t know the value of the piano. At that price your looking at...

Can you really buy the U.S.?

Im no expert at this but from what I observed: timing is off, I hear the drums and bass hitting too early or too late. Some vocal pitches are off ( out of tune). The who mix sounds like I have books in front of my speakers. It seems to be missing clarity or brightness.

www.sweetwater.com is nice. there's no berries there though.

you could have more than one problem, which I hate cause it makes it hard to pin point. Do you have a UPS? some times wiring faults can cause reboots. Once I was recording a show and my PC would reboot at random. a UPS fixed that.

yea I didnt see that right away. but still I dont think I would have bought them. but they shure looked nice.

I did find it odd that it was ending the same day I looked at it. The prices were a bit too low to be true. It would have been nice to buy at that price and then resell them. I noticed the link to the store went off site. which is why I had questions about it.

found this on ebay. 5 sm57's for $199 http://www.auctiva.com/stores/viewstoreitems.aspx?id=142408

now a days anything gear you paid for under $400 is not worth repairing. the bill is enough to buy it used or something similar.

that program also came with my emu1820m. From what I read in the manual is that you cant export your mixdown. It seemed to be very limited
