Hello, Its been a while since I was here but there were many clever people about the place so hopefully someone who's interested in the topic would like to make some suggestions. I also figured the Analog forum (here) would be the most educated/enthusiastic on the topic... I'm doing a bit of...

So Pro Tools is going mad on me; the automation has ceased to write all of a sudden which is a real problem for me. I regularly write in a tracks macro dynamics with the faders of the 002 and then go back and make the micro changes. However no matter what mode I have the automation in...

Hello, I'm working on a mix where we got most instruments sounding great but although the organ sounds fine its a little too screachy for the mix. The track is fairly prog rock and the organ is a bit churchy. I've tried certain roll offs and various other soloutions, although I can get it to sit...

Hey, hope alls well in the world of Home Rec? I'm having a few issues with math... Basically I have an animator that has been supplying me with 29.97fps films to which I have sync'd my music to (this is a college project by the way) very tightly. Basically the different charracters are birds...

Hello, I recently attended a lecture on converting audio to MIDI unfortunatly most of the software required was in VST only format. I was wondering if anyone knows of any software that will retain pitch and velocity information. I was amazed at what you could do with this technology and how...

Right So I have a newly wiped computer with Leopard on it a hundred gig partition and a 40 gig partition. I assumed that I would be able to put osx and PT on partition one along with other apps and that I'd use the partition for samples and plug-ins. Well that's proved to be wrong as I can't...

Right this should be simple but I have probably over thought it and have confused myself... Marshall 2203 Amp jcm800> Mono speaker cable> Cab. Sounds simple, is simple. My confusion: I have a TS jack going to a TS jack there are two wires on the speaker cable from wiring speakers before I take...

I want to configure my Saffire to take mic signals coming in 1-8 (using the pre's) and send out 8 channels of ADAT (channels 11-18) corresponding to the mics. i.e input 1 routed to output 11, input 2 routed to out 12 etc. I'm not looking to use this as an interface just as a stand alone pre...

I'm writing an essay on the way techonology has effected music production and recording based around pre amps. I have covered some ground but I cannot for the life of me find where the original pre came from! who invented it and who first manafactured it? obviously they changed the face of...

Hello, Does anybody know of a hardware recorder suitable for replacing a Tascam MX-24. I know some one in need of one, and they don't want to use converters or to buy a 48 track equivalent. Ith needs to have 24 ins and outs ADAT and 24 ins and outs on DB25 It has to have MIDI time code and...

Basically i switched off my 002 desk with the drive daisy cahined off it so the drive did'nt get ejected properly. normally when this happens al i have to do is open workspace and change the drive to record again ( in fact i had to do this this time too) any way on closing Pro tools I get the...

Alrighty, It's been a while since I've been here, busy with college and no internet! any way I saw a great band playing the other week and noticed a second year recording it, due to this I managed to get hold of the multitracks (though badly clipped- used RX to repair them and their actually...

Sorry for this lads but i have the issue of not being able to use my monitors due to heading to college in Dublin city where neighbours aren't forgiving and lack of a room big enough to fit them in. Can you recommend some budget headphones worth checking out that will do the job? unfortunately...

Gonna do a bit of reamping tomorrow. Right so heres the deal: recorded Di into pro tools through the digi 002 desk I have a marshall 2203 100w tube head that im dragging into a fairly good room for reamping. Can i run the clean signal from one of the outputs at the back through the pedals into...

Hello! At the moment I'm designing a website (with iweb) for my studio and other stuff. I have made several sites but i have never been able to publish them! is there any free web hosts that actually work? I noticed a lot of them don't accept .png images which iweb utilises these! the other...
