    Would this be a good DAW front end??

    im curious as to the 3 preamps i've chosen... i've selected the Isa 428 & Grace 201 purely from comments and reviews (something i hate doing but couldnt find anywhere local that stocked them), i havent heard them directly... will these 3 pres provide a colour (or flavour i guess) that will work...

    Would this be a good DAW front end??

    why do you say that? using the 888's digital inputs bypasses the 888's converters, and since protools TDM 6.1 supports up to 24-bit, 192khz sample rates i dont see the problem. The Signal chain is pretty much going to be from the ISA 428 straight into the computer and protools, The 888 plays...

    Would this be a good DAW front end??

    I've just purchased a Protools|24 rig with a 16-bit 888 interface. While its not the most current rig it is still a quality product and is compatable with the Protools rig at the university i study at (im studying a degree in composition and production - to be a composer/producer, etc, etc)...

    building monitors

    If these 2 car speakers are surplus to your needs try to sell them, you can pick up a set of behringer truth monitors, or yorkvilles, or alesis, or m-audio monitors for under $450 (and they are powered, you dont have to buy a seperate amp). These are all nice monitors for the money, but...

    building monitors

    you can probably build an alright set of speaker with them, but monitors, no. The idea behind monitors is to provide whats call a "flat frequency response". This means the sound is as close to pure as possible. Everything colours the sound in say a home theatre system, the preamp, the...

    Need advice on First Synth...

    I've just gotten into Synth type music lately, and today after listening to Juno Reactor (Ben watkins) work for the Matrix movies im really keen to invest in a hardware synth. I was really interested in the sounds in "Burly Brawl" by ben watkins, i thought he produced some really convincing...

    Delta 410 or Audiophile 2496

    an audiophile is all you need... It is a stereo card. It has an input for the left side, and an input for the right side. So you run your vinyls through the appropriate preamp then the left and right signals go the the inputs into your recording program...

    audiophile2496 and SBlive

    I ran 2 audiocards in my PC. The stock card it came with, and an Echo Layla 20. The stock card was connected to normal stereo computer speakers while the Layla was connected to my monitors. When i would listen to music, play games, whatever i would use the computers stock card... while...

    cubase/digi 002 question....

    well there we go, some people are more in the loop than i am. I study composition and production at university, at Uni they run a Protools setup so im switching over to it so i can record and edit on the run... particularly since i also work a 40hour week. Its more of a convenience thing than...

    Behringer, actually made something good

    Re: Re: Re: Looks decent.. The latter of the 2. Either its a nice attempt at sinisism, or he just doesnt know what the product does...

    cubase/digi 002 question....

    as far as i know you cannot, unless Steinberg have developed support for it but i dont think they have. Digidesign hardware can only be used with the appropriate digidesign software. In the Digi-002's case, it is Protools LE. The software is bundled with the interface when you buy it so what...

    playing audio files through 002 NOT through Pro Tools?

    go into control panels, then into "sounds & audio devices" then hit the "audio" tab up the top then change the playback option to the appropriate channel of the 002. If theres no 002 there im not sure you can do it.... reboot, and its done.
