I am feeling kinda stupid at the moment and I'm hoping I have set some config bit the wrong way and someone here can help - I am running Sonar3 on an XP system and while the audio is running, if I open any pulldown menu; right click on audio or effects bin or menus, the audio output slows to...

Hello - Couple of things: I am running Sonar 3.11 which I had upgraded from Sonar 2.x. I just got a new PC (running XP). I wanted to keep using the Timeworks plugins that came with Sonar 2 and I know that all of the patches are dependent on the previous version being installed. I figured I would...

In Sonar (3.x) is there a simple way to disable all effects at once? I mean the equivalent of going through each track and unselecting each effect not deleting them. Thanks Kevin.

From the latest Mix email: Jay Farrar is recording the new Son Volt album and has set up a webcam in his studio: http://www.jayfarrar.net/webcam/ Some neat pics... looks like homewrecker studio to me :) Kevin.

Hey folks. I took a couple hours this week and added a helmholtz trap in the corner of one of my rooms. I took some pictures along the way and put them up here: http://www.longsoughtfor.org/postn/html/modules.php?set_albumName=album35&op=modload&name=gallery&file=index&include=view_album.php...

Anyone here experiment with summing back to back condensers to mimic a Figure 8 mike? Any tips on phase or placement? Cheers Kevin.

Is the standard helmholtz formula as given in the spreadheets on John Sayers site (Knightfly's corrected version) valid down to very shallow "depth from wall" numbers? I am asking because I have an untreated ceiling that I don't want to add too much material to (thus lowering the height) but...

I just ran across this studio site. The slideshow has a bunch of great "how it was built" sequences. http://www.forgerecording.com/slideshow/slideshow.htm Does anyone know who makes the insulation with the embedded rubber pucks for the floor? Cheers Kevin.

I am getting a fair amount of noise from the C1 these days and was wondering if anyone else had run across the same thing. The noise is a kind of "wind" type noise. There is no actual wind though... if the mic is just up on the stand in the booth I can hear this rustleing / wind noise... kinda...

Since EMTEC is no longer producing tape and Quantegy has been kind enough to raise it's prices on 499. I was wondering where you guys are getting new tape from. The best price I have seen for a reel of 499 1" is $69.93... I have seen it as high as $80. Thanks Kevin.

We took a trip back in July that looped through Nashville and Memphis. I only had time to drive up and down Music Row in Nashville but we did take the Sun Studio tour in Memphis. Music Row was cool, I've never seen that many studios in one place before... wild! [Lots of "For Rent/Lease" signs...

http://www.toeragstudios.com/cover.html Just ran across this place on another bbs... I'd take it in a heart beat. Apparently, The White Stripes recorded there. Cheers Kevin.

Hello - I have a client that asked if I could export from Sonar to Sound Designer 2 (SD2) format. I belive this is a format used under ProTools on a MAC. I took a quick look at the export menu but did not see anything. Anyone know how to do this? Can AIFF files be converted somehow to SD2...

Hi - I have borrowed / acquired a no-name but decent drum kit from a friend and would like to clean it up somewhat. The Kick drum is missing the hoop that holds the front head on and a couple of the lugs that attach to the shell. It is a 22" kick drum and I would like to add the hoop, and a...

Hi - this is a thread I have also posted on the Yahoo Studiomixmap group but since the activity there is really low (looks like days between posts...) I thought I would ask here too: I recently bought a Studiomix on Ebay to use as a Control surface for Sonar 2.2XL. I am running Win2K and...
