I have heard a lot of places of people using the channels inserts on a mixer to route to a multi-track recording medium such as an ADAT... My understanding is that you need a send AND a return on the insert for it to operate...i.e. a stereo cable (tip/sleeve) routed as a mono signal through the...

I am going to buy a pair of Behringer Truths and a Rode NT2 Now my local music show sells the Truths for $1500 and the NT2 for $925 [all aussie dollars] With behringer setting up their own distribution in Australia, it means that the prices are cheaper... I found on the Aussie Behringer...

G'day I am in the market for a pair of monitor speakers. I have been recommended the Yamaha MSP5s as a good set of basic monitor speakers. My budget is around US$750 (AUS$1500) Any opinions on which monitors to get, or which ones to avoid? They do need to be powered, as they will be run...

G'day, My mate has recently bought a Hoontech Audio DSP24 card. Problem is, he is running Windows XP... We downloaded a XP compatible driver off the net, yet we still cannot get it working. Specifically, we cannot get Nuendo to record any audio at all. Any help would be appreciated. K

Which motherboard would people recommend for use with an Athlon XP 1800+ processor??? I will be running a Digi 001 as the hardware for recording. Thanks in advance... Mr. K
