I know this is an older unit that I bought it used and have been very happy so far. But I have some questions concerning setting up headphone sends to a 6 channel headphone box. I have set up outputs 9 & 10 to be the L/R headphone outputs and have them going into the Rane HC-6 headphone box...

Hey guys, haven't been out here much recently. Just haven't had time really. We moved into a new place a few months ago and I'm finally getting around to getting my "studio" set up and I've got a couple of questions about room setup. I'm in an upstairs expandable and it's a nice sized place...

So, after having all my gear packed up in various boxes after moving almost a year ago, I found a used RaXXes desk online which I scarfed up and finally got around to setting everything up. Not only that but my wonderful wife had surprised me with a set of JBL LSR308s for Christmas last year...

But I've finally moved on kicking and screaming to the digital age. I worked in analog for several years, and I've run sound for my church for over 20 years but have not done any multitrack recording since getting out of recording and pro audio. Digital recording was just coming on the scene as...

Needing some ideas on setting up your smaller studio? Check out these pix. A few of them are larger rooms but many of them are smaller residential type spaces...

MCI 636 console/MCI JH-24 tape machine - I knew it backwards and forwards. Harrison MR3/Studer A80 - no sweat. Trident 80B/Otari MTR-90 - not a problem. SSL/Mitsubishi digital - I drove it. Presonus Firestudio Project & Cubase LE - DEAR GOD, WHAT AM I DOING???????? There's so many different...

I searched through the past posts here and found that as late as 2008 people were reporting that they were having problems with getting the FSP to work on various systems. Unfortunately, I remembered this forum too late - I got mine delivered yesterday. I'm wondering if anything has changed...

A friend just purchased a Boss BR-532 Digital Studio and asked me to check it out for him. The first thing he needs to get is a Smart Media card and after checking things out online it looks like those cards are kind of hard to find. I have found some 128 MB for $80-$90. I've also seen some...

I'm planning on buying Sonar 5and was looking at their website and there's a comparison list between the Producer and Studio versions. I noticed that the Producer version has "Per-channel EQ and assignable FXs controls" whereas the Studio version doesn't. So, does this mean that I don't have...

There was a thread going on around here back late last fall that basically went all over the map. One of the sub-threads of it though concerned using your eyes in addition to/instead of your ears while mixing. I that what was being discussed concerned using DAWs and not necissarily analog meters...

I'm currently using Vegas 3 Lite (or LE or whatever the version is that was on the Sound Forge 7 CD) for some video editing and I'm considering upgrading and using it as a multitrack audio program. I'd thought about getting the Presonus Firepod and was glad to see that others here use that...

Anybody know anything about the Openlabs OMX64 DAW? I just saw it at http://www.openlabs.com/omx64.php. The Store 404's on me so I don't know if it isn't available yet, pricing, etc. It utilizes single or dual AMD Athlon 64 processors can have up to 8GB of RAM and has an 80GB hotswappable 7200...

I am an old analog guy who is being drug kicking and screaming into this digital world. I'm starting to teach myself how to record/edit/mix audio in Sonar and I've got a few questions if somebody could spare some time. 1. I want to understand the relationship between the .wrk file and the...

Well thanks guys! I finally got it working and I didn't even have to upgrade or add the extra memory. (I will do both very soon, but I just could see how it wouldn't work.) For all who follow who may have the same problems as I did (Audiophile drivers weren't recogized as useable sources of...

I'm baaaaaaaaack! And I'm gettin pi$$ed!! You guys offered several possible solutions to my previous issues and I have finally gotten a chance to go back and try them. Unfortunately, I'm still where I was before. Here's the specifics: - M-Audio Audiophile USB installed on a Dell 1.8 GHz Celeron...
