    Newbie mic Q's (only 2):

    That's a pretty good recommendation, Rich. And the price is allright, too. Thanks for the word. BTW, what do you use for miking up a bass cab? Rog.

    Newbie mic Q's (only 2):

    That sm7b is over my head. I'm looking for something for more general use, which violates a certain sensibility which I can't currently afford! Thanks for the insight. As far as my decision-making skills: Shamefully, I have used an arbitrary method loosely based on a degree of experience in...

    Newbie mic Q's (only 2):

    So, Rich, How do you use your mic? I mean applications in particular (!)... I'm needing an all-around piece, and I generally am liking the idea of a diaphragm with more mass, for all the obvious physical reasons. And spending $200 is better than spending $300... In what ways, if I may press...

    CD Architect not getting along with my burner

    Yep, I understand all you guys are saying. I tried burning a DVD just to see if a disc with more capacity would do it, realizing that the format just may not be compatible. I was trying anything! I also went to the preferences window, and indicated the 80 minute choice. The Help file does...

    Newbie mic Q's (only 2):

    I'm shopping for a mic (my first large diaphragm- I'm so excited!). Right... so I could get a Shure KSM 27, or an AT3035 for a nice deal at the music store where I teach. I've narrowed the choice down to these, knocking off the CAD, and a couple others. Any opinions? This needs to be a...

    how do i filter out the extremely high frequency that i don't want?

    Finding your freq... A note: I find I can zero in on a frequency's range by going to the Parametric EQ (Effects>Filters), turning on only ONE slider, applying a REAL narrow 'Q' to it, and move the slider along the freq range until I find the offender. (Put the wave into the edit window first...

    CD Architect not getting along with my burner

    I've done a sequencing for a friend of mine's disc, and it's almost 80 minutes, with lots of crossfades from song to song. When I go to burn it, I get a window telling me my drive (Toshiba DVD) is recieving an illegal command. Is it because my files are carrying too much information because...

    Effects envelopes

    Well, I'm remiss in asking, perhaps, before I get in some more time with my own "Rack" here, but it just seems a sensible question... in the non-virtual world! I'm going back in...but, see if this makes sense (heh): When I go to Effects in CEP, I get into a window (Properties...?) which lets...

    Effects envelopes

    Good place to ask a question here- bear with me for a sec: I haven't gotten that far just yet in CEP, or any other app for that matter, but can those faders in the effects rack you're talking about be related to AUX Send knobs on the channel strip of a Mackie mixer (for instance)? If you chain...

    "Learning to do..." That's for sure- I think if you're resouceful enough you can figure a way to do most of the basic recording "chores" you might need to do in CEP. I'm sure that when I've climbed a little farther up my learning curve (pant...) I'll be shaking my head at what I'd been doing...

    CEP 2.0 Q: Burning CDs from wav files

    Yeah, you have, and thank you for your time! You have confirmed another answer I got earlier from a local cat who uses CEP also. All I have to say is, I spent the better part of a day on this freaking thing (instead of at work), trying to get a cd of a band rehearsal. What an alarmingly and...

    CEP 2.0 Q: Burning CDs from wav files

    Hey, allright... It's going to be a simple explanation, but I've run some mono tape recordings from band rehearsal into CEP 2.0, eq'd 'em, and am trying to burn them onto disc using my Veritas software. Only I'm getting :55 seconds of a tune instead of 1:40! (Yeah, they're short!) When I'm...

    428 paper weight

    I'm in agreement that Tascam sits in the Loser's Chair for sloughing-off the User's Forum, but I, too, must add that my US-428 is doing fine by me. I'm going to use it to import a bunch of cassette 4-tracks me and some guys did several years ago. Mixing/editing in CEP 2.0. Also I'm in the...
