    Are there issues with mismatched Sampling rates ?

    Well, you're using a UA Apollo and Cubase and a Roland (???) that's connected via USB. Knowing what that is might help. There almost has to be a way to change the clock source...

    Are there issues with mismatched Sampling rates ?

    The sample rates should (1) be the same and (2) be clocked from the same source. Even two clocks running at the same rate are going to be out of sync to some extent. At least enough to cause some "micro-crackling" with signal...

    Raw tracks for mixing practice.

    I'm sure it's been posted somewhere before, but: Multitracks - TELEFUNKEN Elektroakustik Some months back, I had to put together a "mixing boot camp" for a crew of theatre technicians. Stumbled across this source of raw tracks. As someone who has worked on several recordings done at...

    Level not matching visual of track

    Not saying this is the issue here (that really does look like a magnified track). But just for the anti-visual reference, this is why I rarely ever (1) pay attention to meters unless I'm calibrating my chain and (2) rarely ever pay attention to wave forms. 3 highlighted files -- (LUFS) Left...

    Where does all the money go?

    This was actually interesting. Just tossed in rough estimate numbers - Thought I had more in speakers / treatment.

    question- to turn off rack gear or use a power strip On/OFF

    Disclaimer -- I turn my stuff off. I'm pulling around 6A with the usual stuff running (not counting lights, computers & video monitors, etc.). That bill would be too damn high. The power being fed is clean -- The gear has a dedicated circuit going into a VARIAC for control and a pair of the...

    A favor of sorts -- Need a recorded drum-check.

    Long story, but I have to do a "basics course" of sorts for a small cadre of theatre technicians. I have a decent selection of multi-track stuff to work with (which I'll have to abbreviate due to only having 8 outputs at my disposal). What I don't have - and which is rather crucial in most...

    Testing Electrical Consumption

    I'll have you know that I have a (Gardner-Bender?) meter that measures the same as the top unit and a Fluke that measures the same as the bottom. Both units are Monster and are connected to the same 20A circuit.

    Wall mounting studio monitors

    I used to use TV mounts... They were made for - you know - televisions. With cathode ray tubes. Kept them away from the wall and on an angle to the floor. No idea where I'd look for such things these days though... You can sort of see what I'm talking about with the small monitors in this...

    Power Conditioner and DJ Power strip

    I use no fewer than 4 of them. They do have a life span of sorts if you're using big-draw stuff (high-output class "A" amps for example). If you're using such things, I'd actually suggest swapping switches around maybe every 6 months or so. Otherwise, they're very handy as hard-wired power...

    Sharp noise spike inflitrates audio

    Speaking of clocking errors -- Just grabbed this one. Note the highlighted area in the wave form -- You'd never know that horrifically nasty 20-20k spike was in there (as seen in the spectral editor).

    analog vs digital

    I'm fine with 9mm, but I insist on Harley-Davidson. That said, that particular era of HD (when they were owned and managed by AMF) needed Bardot... The modern ones still ooze personality - but the personality doesn't look like the motor's fluids. Geez, I need new pics of the bike too...

    A/B Comparison: Mix and Master

    If you know *EXACTLY* what you want to do and precisely how to do it using the tools supplied by Ozone, go nuts. Otherwise, I've found it to be the absolute fastest way to completely screw up an otherwise perfectly decent mix to the point of it being totally unlistenable. ** Don't remember...

    Building a new budget studio from start to clients...

    If you're ever feeling saucy, I used to have that same desk (WARNING: "Back in the day, Room D" shot follows) and you have an old 6-space rack and a 30/60/90 traingle... You have to think ahead on depth and what not -- Make the racks first (tearing a 45/45/90 out of a rack basically and...
