When I export single tracks, I get exports 2db hotter than what goes out to the master bus. I tested to route directly to the soundcard, same thing happened there: 2 db hotter. I did the exact same thing in Nuendo, got the same level outputs as the original... Any Ideas? Thanks

Hi, Now when I copy an audio clip from one track to another, it locks to the grid, it will not copy at the exact same position on another track ( I drag from one track to another, and instead of keeping the same position, it copies itself at the beginning of the bar...) If I disable the grid...

Hi, As you probably know from my previous post, I am planning to buy reference monitors in the 1000-1400$ pricerange. I went to listen to Adam A7, Mackie HR824MKII, genelec 8030A, Dynaudio BM5A. My first impression on A7 was good, but in an A/B test they are awful... they lack a whole bootom...

Hi, I was about to buy Mackie HR824 MKII studio monitors when a friend of mine, a renowned TV/movies music composer, came along in the store. After a quick chat, he told me not to buy these, they lack too much punch in the bass, instead suggested me a 3000$ JBL monitor system... My budget...

Hi, The click is running at 120, I play quarter notes with the click and it doesn't follow on playback. Someone told me that I had to either click in the midi track to see the quarter note Icon, or in the transport view there was a setting. I tried the tempo fixed or tempo track without...

Hi, I am creating a loop bank with Sonar. Sometimes I work with loops and can't get rid of that little tick everytime it loops. Happens when I loop old stuff or constant sounds. Any tricks? Thanks

Hi, I have to learn Nuendo for work, Is Cubase exactly (audio speaking) the same? I don't want to buy nuendo as it is very expensive and I will only use the audio portion of it. 2. Will I be able to open nuendo files (saying it is only audio files) in Cubase? Thanks,

Hi, I've been using Sonar 4 on a laptop with WinXP for 2 years, the soundcard was the internal one, a Realtek. I bought a new laptop, now Sonar 6 willl not recognize the Realtek soundcard inside the new laptop (Win Vista). The wave profiler says all the frequencies (44.1Khz, 48Khz, etc) are...

I'd like to know how to have a group of effects to be loading simultaneously? ( I always put a compressor, eq and Reverb on my vocal tracks, I am always stuck loading them 1 by 1) The template option is ok but I'd like to be able to do it the Wavelab way. Thanks

Hi, I am tired of clicking Mute on a vocal track1 then clicking unMute on vocal track2... The silence i get for a second makes it hard to compare track 1 with track 2... Just like the green button on the effects, makes an A-B comparison. Is there a way to do A-B comparison to audio tracks? (I...

Hi, You're thrown in a store and you can walk out with one preamp that you will use for vocals, free. Which one do you get? Manley Voxbox? Avalon 737, Ad2022, Vintech, Neve1072

Hi, Is there a thread (like the one in the microphone section) that shows preamps vs. price range vs. utility. I mean good preamps for vocals (or drums or guitars) in the price range of 100-300$ then in the price range of 300-600$ etc... Thanks, Thierry

Hi, I am shopping for a preamp, and by reading here I noticed that saving money to buy a really good preamp was the option for me as I own a mackie console and a At4040 microphone. Buying a cheap preamp won't improve my sound, so I might go for avalon... or equivalent. I was wondering if...

I am interested in the Art DPS II preamp as its specs are just what I need. With its digital output and its good price (200$), it seems good for me. Any comment on that preamp? If you guys like it or not just tell me Thanks, Thierry
