studio...and not put them away after each use?? I wonder what the Pros say about this. Large diaghram mics especially...does it ruin the diaghram to leave them out, on the stand..all the time?? I ask this because when I want to record.. I want to record, and having to go through the process of...

I have a chance to get the Roland CD-Rack Digital Studio Storage Pack. It's $500.00 at GC. I'm unsure if this is the way to go for me though...I don't have samplers presently ...and the storage "bay" feature may go unused. But I guess the question is...as far as Storage to Cd's and Burning your...

Any Dp4 users...please answer a few questions. Is the software version (1.14 in my case) upgradable?? I just picked one up for the units versatile functions...and great sounding algorithms. In my configuration, which would be the best "config" to use it in. I have a Roland 1680 DAW with 2...

Do you like it? Does it work well?? How's the internal sound card?? THANKS< BeBop

These are big instruments and I'm having a hard time getting the sound right. Above, underneath, straight at the bars ???I just don't know. I've heard of three mic's being used on the instrument?? I've got one C414 tl2 and one Neuman 184 I'm trying out. Bebop

I'm using some C414 TL2's and Neuman 184's. I've seen the Kiwi, Blueberry et al...I know Monster makes a pretty substantial cord too. What are folks going for these days?? I know the bucks can be worth it. Bebop

I just want a simple reverb...no pages to scroll through, a few tweaks would be just fine but I find the newer lex's to complicated and overloaded with stuff I;ll never use. Any recomendations for a simple reverb unit less all the other whacky effects?? Bebop

Any one with experience with these mics (and I'm sure there are) that could steer me toward on or the other. I will record through an ART pro MPA into a VS1680. Mostly recording acoustic instruments, vibes, marimba, orchestra bells, crotales, frame drums, small percussion..... I love the...

effects cards. I want to use a alternate reverb unit with the 1680...a Lexicon 200 to be exact. How do you most efficiently send and recieve with outboard processors on the Roland products...Spidf..optical...burn two channels?? I'm really an acoustic musician who wants to record with a nice...

When do you stereo mic an instrument and why?? I understand larger instruments may need 2 mics to cover the area (marimba etc) but is there any rule of thumb for stereoing regular instruments?? Thanks, BB

Can you up the hard drive from a 4 gig to something bigger for the VS 1680?? let me know!! Be-Bop

I'm thinking of getting a 1680 but really can't see using much more then Reverb, delay and maybe eq for my projects. I can buy a 1680 at a great price with no effects cards. Any thoughts on this?? Knowing myself and knowing what types of effects are included in these units (and I know...

I'm a simple jazz musician. I want to record some things, edit tracks, add effects... I'm not looking to produce grammy hits...don't need lots of bell s and whistles.. still though, i want to be creative using a recording technology. Should I go for the "yamaha type 4416 roland 1880...unit " or...
