Hey folks, just wondering if anyone has any suggestions as to how I could get my preamp repaired out here in Vancouver. It's a Mindprint Envoice tube pre, and it crapped out a while ago. I had a guy look at it twice, but didnt fix it properly. It just sort of craps out after about 20 minutes...

Hi folks, teaching a course at the local University, and the tech guy re-formatted the computer, losing our RS-9 patchname script. I've searched everywhere and can't find it. Does anyone have this file? can you tell me where I could find it? Thanks for the help!

any composers have some system that answers this question??

Hi all, just trying to get organized... wondering there is a program that would help me put everything into categories with keywords. So I could say... "Lauren Hill type beat" and it would hook me up with all of the loops I've given that keyword. Also for synth patches, using Vapor right now...

Thanks for the tips, is this how other people are watching DVD in surround with their speaker/soundcards? If not, share your methods!

Hi folks. Done some searching to avoid unnecessary posting, but alas, here goes... I'm in the process of acquiring surround speakers for my studio, and I just got a DVD+R drive to burn my mxes onto (mainly for faster backup...) What I'm wondering is.... if I get the surround encoding for...

I tried it out, compared it to the old POD, and Amplitube, and believe it or not, I liked Amplitube the best! Guess I'll save my cash for now...

Just wondering if there are any users of this device. I can't seem to find anything about it on the net, are there forums somewhere for it? It seems a lot less supported than the POD Xt, but it could be a great device... any ideas or opinions? I should mention that I know all of the...

Best tech support ever Just wanted y'all to know, I sent in my 896 to tech support, within 2 days, they got a replacement for me, all the way across the states to Canada! I am extremely impressed with their tech support, you all need to hear this if you're thinking of buying a soundcard! It...

Thanks again, I tried an Alvarez today and was impressed by it. Ultimately I'll have to get them into the studio and AB each of these items with my current setup and see how they measure up. The point of my questions here is to see what other people in my situation are using and to find ways...

Thanks for that, I just saw a Larrivee for $1200 (CDN) might look into that, also found a Laney 30W tube amp, gonna try them out tomorrow maybe... anyone reccommend a Laney over a Marshall? Also thinking about upgrading the AT 3035 LD mic to something like a Rode tube mic... even better...

I forgot to mention that this is for recording only, I barely ever play live, just looking for the best setup for the studio.

Hello all, just want some up to date advice for some new purchases for my recording studio. I need an acoustic that will sound great in many genres of music (around the $1200 range). And I need the best amp (smaller size, but able to do light blues to heavy metal) for my Strat. Bass is less...

Hey Tonio, yeah, not cables, or input etc. tried COMPLETELY different setup. The pots are definitely dirty (I tested each one, some worse than others), but I definitely don't "schlep" it! I got some compressed air, the MOTU tech support guy told me to open it up and spray it out... not...

Thanks for the ideas so far... sorry I didn't give you more info. It's definitely not word clock or anything digital... it's just connected straight to the computer, same as normal. I tried it on a completely different setup... diff computer, diff software, diff mic, diff cables, diff...
