    Combining DAW and video?

    When recording video with sound (for syncing later) I usually clap my hands three times in each shot, that way the signal will show up as three loud claps making it super easy to sync the video with audio later. Once synced, split the audio from the video for each track recorded and remove the...

    Focusrite Scarlett 18i8/18i20 or PreSonus Studio 1810 with Reaper?

    I agree, it won’t hurt to try it out. I think every DAW has a learning curve and once you work with a few, you will probably think they are all similar in many ways. That video you linked points out a few of those aspects that are unique to S1’s workflow but what I loved about Reaper is the...

    Focusrite Scarlett 18i8/18i20 or PreSonus Studio 1810 with Reaper?

    I have used Presonus interfaces and software for years now, once you get used to their eco-system there is no turning back in my opinion. I’m not sure if you are using Reaper for specific reasons but if not, you might consider Presonus Studio One software as their HW/SW plays nicely with each...

    Starter VSTS for Reaper

    I think the Emmisary STL Ignite amp sim is phenomenal and it also comes with a few IRs. It is more of a high gain amp but it cleans up nicely and works fairly decent. Best part it is 100% free and includes an IR loader: STL Ignite - Emissary Plug-In Bundle - STL Tones

    Latency issue

    DM60 is correct in that Audacity doesn’t natively support ASIO as Audacity is open source software and the GPL doesn’t permit it. But if you are fairly computer literate, you can compile the source code to include ASIO as referenced with Audacity’s Wiki: (Note, it’s not difficult if you follow...

    Digital crackles when playback un anti DAW - Not a buffer size problem !

    Cracks, pops and clicks are almost always due to driver related issues. The only other thing to suggest is using decent cables for the connectivity. The laptop is fine though and I’ve used less with good performance. Lastly, make sure you test with all lights, monitors etc off as these can...

    Multitrack Recording With A Tablet

    I don't have any experience with MF and or DL1608 etc. I can say that some mixers are now multitrack capable and support more than 2 channels like older USB mixers. The newer Presonus i-series allows you to utilize multiple interfaces within Auria, Cubasis etc., anything IOS compliant will be...

    Multitrack Recording With A Tablet

    Very cool! I would imagine the newer Ipad Pro's are even better, I have also been thinking of picking up the new 11" pro and waiting for better deals to come around but might be awhile :) Post back if you get the new version, dying to know how the GUI looks for Auria or Cubasis, BIAS etc.

    USB audio degradation.. Help!!

    Are you monitoring the track output from your DAW or input signal? You should be monitoring your input signal when you are recording with the Kemper. Also, make sure your interfaces are setup for stereo etc. Lastly, if your interface supports it, use S/PDIF from Kemper to PC as that will allow...

    PreSonus Update destroyed Studio One

    Wish I had seen your post earlier as I knew the source of your issue. Back in May when S4 was released, the selection for high dpi scaling was removed but they added it back in 4.1. For everyone who enjoys the large real estate with 1080p/4K monitors, the resolution needed to be tweaked due to...

    Problem with Audacity

    The one 'minor' thing that could also give the same result is simply moving the USB to another interface on your PC. Although USB is mainly plug and play, if you move a cable to another interface (from where a component driver was installed) you may have issues where it won't find the applicable...

    Presonus Studio one won`t launch in Windows 8.1 api-ms-win-crti1-1-0.dll is missing

    you are almost guaranteed to be missing some necessary updates for 8.1 There is a thread at Presonus: Look in the studio one settings directory for a file called studio one.log %appdata%presonus/studio one 3 directory. This will tell you where its failing etc. Studii one.exe - System Error...

    Just began, yet I can't start, and I'm almost done

    depending on the mic, make sure the switch is on etc. Also check your manual pages 13-17 with various methods to use the preamp with your interfaces. check to make sure the insert switch is NOT on as that is used for the send/return and will stop your signal output without a outboard effect...

    Time to face the music

    What you submitted shows a lot of pitch related issues, tempo is all over the place and you show lack of control in breathing etc. If you enjoy singing, sing to the world. If you want the stage, you would need a ton of practice, the will to learn and the skills to apply what you learn. Try a...
