    Quick Question

    I run ProTools LE on my B&W G3. Just got WaveBurner Pro to master to my QPS FireWire 12x10x32 burner which *according to the Emagic website* is supported by WaveBurner Pro. I've created a new extension set for recording ONLY and disabled all Toast-related (and all other superfluous)...

    Whats Everyone Got For Mics ?

    Maybe I should get... ...a locker. On my mic shelf: - SM57 - SM58 Beta - MXL 1006 The last one I call "General Mike", not for it's applicability in all situations but because in the catalog and on the website and even in the brochure, it has a pretty, champagney...

    Pro Tools User Forum?

    Anybody know of a URL for a Pro Tools users forum, preferably one that's not TOO incredibly technical and Hardworking-Professional-Humorless-Engineer in orientation? You know I'm kidding--some of the funniest guys I know are engineers. Really. I'm a newbie with a voracious appetite for Pro...

    PT 5.1 Click Track

    Kind of a Newbie Question: Just loaded Pro Tools 5.1 into my 350mHz, 256M G3 w/ Audiomedia III and a Mackie 1404 mixer. Can't get the metronome audible. In the "Click/Countoff Options" window, the "output" of the click is set to "none" with no other options available in the pop-up menu. Any...

    Hard Drive Raves and Rants, Please...

    Thanks I'm on a Mac (see initial post) and I was thinking Firewire because A) I don't want to add another layer of USB to my chain as I have two Firewire ports open now and 2) the data transfer rate. I think I'll look into one of the compatible 45 Gig drives... seems you can find them for...

    Hard Drive Raves and Rants, Please...

    Hey Crew: I aspire to aquire a Firewire dryer...uh, I mean DRIVE... for my ever-burgeoning audio creations. (B&W G3, Audiomedia III, Mackie 1402...blah, blah, blah) Okay, so far it's just me and a guitar, a keyboard, a mic, and a Silly-Putty egg with BB's in it, but I'm getting there. Clearly...

    John Hiatt

    Integrity John Hiatt is, I agree, perhaps our greatest living American folk /rock songwriter. One of the reasons is his attitude toward songwriting as being something you just do. His honesty and integrity are unparalleled in this business; witness his embrace of internet music technology in...

    Headphone Mix During Take

    Thanks Bruce-- that's good info, as I am using very sub-par cans right now and need a good pair. I think I misstated my question though (which I realized right after I clicked "submit", naturally) which is this: using the phones out on the Mackie, how can I reduce the volume of the backing...

    Headphone Mix During Take

    Hey Dudes and Dudettes: Just started tracking with some basic gear, a Mackie 1402VLZ into an AudioMedia III in my B&W G3 using Digital Performer 2.6. (as in "Hello, I'm five years behind all the rest of you...") and frankly, I'm having a blast. Here's one though... I can't seem to get the...

    Okay, I admit it.

    Thanks, Dobro & Sabith Mille Grazie, dudes. I'm off and running and loving every second of it. Maybe you remember this from way back when (or maybe it still gets ya) but I have trouble leaving the house anymore. My fiancee's getting worried; she thinks I'll never shave again. Thanks for the...
