    Optimize Your DAW Computer for Your Home Studio

    Thanks David, I know nothing about DAW, coming from the days when ADATs were first appearing, but thought it would be a good start. So you don't think windows 8.1 will be a problem, as long as I scrub it squeaky clean of bloatware, malware, and unneeded programs? And, can you recommend AV cards...

    Optimize Your DAW Computer for Your Home Studio

    Didn't see anywhere to post this particular question, but I'm looking at off the shelf PCs, and wondered if this was a good starting point, HP Envy 700-214, 4core i5 4440, 12GB DDR3-1600 2TB 7200 RPM SATA HDD, 3GHZ 3. SOMETHING IN TURBO, A gazillion usb 2.0, and 3.0 ports, tons of pci slots, and...

    To Choose a DP-24

    Rustyaxe, another issue, you said you have the MX 61? From a lot of what I read about it, it's really a much more versatile, and powerful keyboard once you connect it to a computer. I won't be likely to use the sequencer anyway, but the editing, and key sensitivity added with the prolouge...

    To Choose a DP-24

    Yes, I think that's a good idea, even though the midi ports are purely for clock on the DP, it certainly would help keep the drums synced to the internal clock on the recorder. Just another reason to go with my decision to get the MX first, and then save for the MAC daddy( bad pun intended), of...

    To Choose a DP-24

    Thanks again Rusty, and I agree with you, as so many try to push me in the DAW direction, which for editing, and effects, it does get you a bit furthur, but I may have used the wrong terms, your description of how to effect already recorded tracks seemed possible using outboard effects, and...

    To Choose a DP-24

    I'd also like to address an issue about the DP24 that DebErny brought up earlier in thus thread, and I've seen almist the exact same post on every forum about the crappy warranty. I agree it is a horrible warranty. However, I purchased my DP24 at Sam Ash, out the door (tax included) for $488.00...

    To Choose a DP-24

    Rustyaxe, you've been very nice to help my old technically challenged ass, so while not trying ro take your kindness for granted, could you help me with a decision, and answer one more question? Q: if I use outboard effects, can I add dynamics, and delay/reverb to individual tracks during...

    To Choose a DP-24

    Okay, so I'm not as smart as I thought,LOL! So basically, if I want to use a atreilo track, and I use say, inputs a, and b, I'd send one side of my stereo device into a , and one to b, and assign them both to say 23/24. So, would I pan input a hard left, and b hard right? And we've already...

    To Choose a DP-24

    Thanks Rustyaxe, I thought that was the case, but couldn't find the answer anywhere. So, if I input both into a trs, and into one input, it would still come out stereo if routed to a stereo track? I think that's what you meant, but as long as there's no problem using two ts's into two inputs...

    To Choose a DP-24

    Be nice guys, it's all personal preference, and very subjective. Everyone has different experiences with gear. Now, my question. The combo inputs are XLR/1/4" TRS. When you want to say record a steteo backing track to two tracks, and you have two TS 1/4" outs, can you use TS in the inputs? If...

    Is the DP-24 being discontinued or replaced?

    I picked up my DP-24 at Sam Ash for $488 out the door, which is about $465.00. They sure have dropped in price since they first came out. I think they were almost $800.00 online the first several months. Regardless of any firmware updates, missing features from the 2488, for less than $500.00...
