OK, so I hadn't done any recording for nearly a year, but I decided to setup again on Saturday. I got things hooked up and recorded a little test but I can't hear any playback at all. I assume it's probably the simplest little setting that I've missed, but I just can't figure it out. I'm using a...

So I got a great narrator to narrate an audiobook for me. Now I'm realizing that the quality of the recording is far from perfect. I have attached a sample below of the raw audio with just a slight expander applied. You'll notice that the sound is somewhat muffled, exaggerating the airy sounds...

Hope you'll have had a great Christmas! I just completed an acapella multitrack song and I'd like to have an unbiased ear do the final mixing and mastering. I have completed pitch correct and alignment for the most part, but no eq, compression, or efx have been added. I probably have the tools...

I'm just getting started on an audiobook project. Here is a short test I recorded and I'd like to have an unbiased ear add the final EQ, compression, etc just to get anothers' perspective. I know it's simple stuff, but I'm still getting started and haven't developed the ear for a good voiceover...

I just got my first Mac and Pro Tools 9 and I'm afraid I'm running into compatibility problems. My Mac runs both Windows 8 and OSX 10.9 Mavericks. However, in my Avid account I only see PT9 installers for OSX 10.6 and 10.7, and Windows 7. Is my computer a too far ahead of the game for Pro Tools 9?

I'm thinking of setting up to record voice over in a more professional way. I've kindof picked out the Focusrite ISA One for a preamp, but I'd consider other options in a similar price level. For a mic, I've been looking at the Lewitt LCT540 or Blue Baby Bottle. I think a very 'warm' sounding...

Am I correct that if I purchase a Focusrite Liquid Saffire 56 or MOTU 896(both have biult-in preamps) I can then add a better preamp as finances allow (Focusrite ISA428 for instance) and can get the added sound quality of the outboard preamp while still using same interface? Wayne

I'm still dreaming about setting up a studio and I got a pretty good idea what I'd need except I haven't settled on an audio interface. I would want to have 8 xlr mic inputs and firewire or USB 2 connection. If I were to spend up to 2k on an interface, what would you all recommend as the best...

Found this picture of a local studio and I'm curious what equipment he's using. Anyone care to take a guess at what's in the rack on the right? I think I've seen threads like this before and some of you guys know your stuff pretty good...

I'm looking what the best options are for a firewire interface with at least 8 XLR 48v mic inputs. Looking for the best value out there for under 1k. A few that caught my atention: Focusrite Liquid Saffire 56 MOTU 896mk3 Hybrid Or maybe a mixer/ interface combo would be a better option...

Got a few questions on the digidesign 002 mixer console. I think I read that the functions on this console are fully integrated with Pro Tools. So I'm assuming that any adjustment of levels etc on the mixer is happening on the screen at the same time??? Also, this acts as a audio...

I've been browsing around looking a good microphone for vocals. I kinda zeroed in on these two for now and I'm wondering if anyone here could pitch in a few thoughts as to which is the better value mic. Obviously, the c414 has been around long and has earned many good reveiws. On the other hand...

Looking for some feedback and advice from guys that have experience with the MXL Genesis studio condenser mic. I found this mic and I'm pretty impressed with the reveiws I've read and the reasonable price tag. How does this mic compare to something like a Neumman TLM103 for instance. I am...

I have been thinking of getting a studio mic and interface so I can record directly into the computer. The Protools M-box is the first option the caught my attention, but I'm looking for a high quality sound so I thought I'd better ask you guys first. I don't need anything fancy, just a box into...
