    Need Help & Ideas for Upgrading Studio/Computer

    I agree with the other posters. I'm astonished that you could do anything at all with a 451mhz processor. I remember buying my first computer around a decade ago and asking the sales guy if 450 mhz would be noticeably faster than 400mhz! The specs hardwire posted are a very good start. You...

    Laptop purchasing decision

    did a bit of research about the firewire problems with the macbooks. seems to be true. and as it's so recent, there doesn't seem to be any workaround. Be aware that the last few versions of logic (including the latest) do not have vst support. You'd have to purchase a vst to au wrapper that, as...

    Need Help & Ideas for Upgrading Studio/Computer

    whoa. those specs are pretty low. so you're looking for an upgrade right? because it's possible to build a computer with significantly better specs than that for right around $500. I just built a brand new quad core with 4gigs of memory for $1005 including shipping (which was free, naturally)...

    firewire or usb replacement for delta 44?

    hey thanks for the recommendation. something like that is exactly what i am looking for! i find it strange, however, that it doesn't have any XLR inputs (and phantom power). am i missing something?

    firewire or usb replacement for delta 44?

    I'm switching to OSX, not necessarily for the music production side, but because i am a designer who just happens to enjoy making music. Nothing professional really; it's just for fun on the side. Anyway, it seems my Delta 44, which has served me quite well over the past few years, will not fit...

    SAGA Guitar Kits

    warmoth.com has a nice selection, you can basically put together any kind of guitar you'd like, and it's all customizable and what not. a little more expensive but still a nice deal. I just ordered a strat neck from them. I'm waiting to see how it turns out

    Mic Budget Help!

    I don't know, after reading massive's solaris thread and also listening to some clips of acoustic guitar and stuff with them they seem to be very nice for acoustic instruments. I'm wondering how well they are on vocals though, as I really don't enjoy my voice on the at3035 or the sm57. The...

    Mic Budget Help!

    Ok, I know you guys really don't like this, but......I've got 1,000 or so dollars to upgrade my setup. I mainly record electric guitars, and vocals. But I'm looking for something that would do those well and still be somewhat expandable so I could do acoustic guitars (with clarity, not strummy...
