    Recording MP3s to Cassette Tapes

    Hehehe ... this was a funny page ... thanks for sharing it ... This guy at angelfire seems to only know how to make a copy of another tape. Why else would he need a line --> cassette adapter? > ...but it is a tape that has a wire running out of it with a headphone plug at the end of the...

    Classical Guitar

    The signal to noise ratio of the mic is probably what's causing the hiss. i.e. ... It worked ok for vocals,drums and amps because those are louder and you didn't have to increase the gain as much. With classical acoustic ... it's a much quieter instrument ... therefore you increase the gain...

    Wrong amp purchase ... oops

    I recently bought a Marshall Valvestate VS265 amp. I admit that this purchase was more of an afterthought and I should have spent more time listening and comparing. I bought it at the same time I was getting a guitar (love those 'no payments until' financing deals) and played several guitars...

    Sound Forge XP - plug ins?

    Maybe I'm just a numbskull ... but I can only find this regarding plug in config in the online help ... > Plug-in Properties This dialog displays properties about the selected plug-in. If you want to remove the plug-in, click the Remove button. However, you should always run the uninstall...

    The Look

    http://home.att.net/~bk2000/mix_samples.htm Here's part of a jam from the end of a tune we did recently. Sounds like it should be in the background on the Weather Channel to me! :) Hey ... someone's gotta do that music, right? :D Hope you like it ...

    Guitar Synth

    Hi I'm trying to record my Roland GR30 with cakewalk and it just doesn't reproduce what I'm playing very well. Single notes are off tempo and key, when originally played correctly and strummed chords ... forget about it! Is there some setting in CW that I'm missing when recording a guitar...

    Doors

    I've got 'outside' steel doors for both the control and studio room. The thought there was primarily getting a good airseal when it's closed. I'd like to beef up these doors a little to get a little better STC out of them. I've been thinking of Auralex SheetBlok...

    s/pdif effect boxes

    I know TC Electronics M-ONE has this connection. http://www.tcelectronic.com/products.asp?page=specs&id=58&category=1 Anyone know of any other units below $1000 that can do the same? Also, maybe there's a PC software for reverb/effects that is stand alone (doesn't have to work with cakewalk...

    s/pdif --> AES/EBU converters

    Does anyone know where I could buy a converter that would take an spdif signal and convert it to AES/EBU? The sound card I'm looking at getting recommends using a Hosa CDL-313 converter for this ... but I can't find any info on it anywhere. Does anyone know of any other manufacturers that make...

    HVAC

    I built my basement studio about 3 years ago and didn't really do a good job of planning the ventilation in both the control and studio rooms. In fact, there is no ventilation at all for these rooms. Heat is supplied with electric heaters. Big mistake. Forget about having more that 2 people...

    Sync

    Is anyone syncing their ADAT with any other equipment (that doesn't use the ADAT sync cable)? I'd like to to use either wordclock or MMC to sync my LX's up to both keyboard and computer-based sequencers and ultimately use my board as the master control for all. I'm unfamiliar with how these...

    Yamaha Stage Custom

    What do drummers think about ... Yamaha Stage Custom series drumsets? http://www.yamahadrums.com/drums/drums_stage.html good or not? Is there anything else in that price range ($600 - $900) that would be better for a 'recording only' kit? What do you think?

    Frontier Design's WaveCenter/PCI card

    http://www.frontierdesign.com/pr_WCPCI.htm Does anyone have any experience using this card? I'm looking for a simple 2 channel only card that accepts either AES/EBU or spdif (coax only) formats. This card has an additional ADAT light pipe, which would be nice, but is not mandatory for my...

    Cakewalk MIDI Pack

    I installed this cable on two of my computers and it went off without a hitch. Basically plugged in my synth and ... it worked right away. I tried to do this on my sister's PC and I couldn't get it to work at all. She has a Packard Bell ... which I hear is a bit more problematic ... but did...

    Software

    Does anyone know if there's software available that would function like a BBE Sonic Maximizer or Aphex Aural Exciter? Stand alone DSP software, if possible ... not part of Cakewalk or Cubase or something. If so could you please supply a link to the website? Thanks [This message has been...

    Reformatting Tapes

    Has anyone reformatted any ADAT tapes sucessfully? I've tried once unsuccesfully. My LX20 would sometimes be able to playback ... and other times wouldn't play at all. I reformatted just as I would format a fresh tape. I'm just wondering if I missed a step. Maybe erase the tape first? Just...

    Real Audio

    How does this work anyway? I tried to post some RA files on my site when Sonic Foundry had a beta test of Stream Anywhere ... but could never get it to work right. It always downloaded the whole tune before it would play anything. Do you need a special server to stream the ra file from other...

    mp3.com?

    Has anybody here had any success with posting stuff on mp3.com? How would you rate it? Have you had any CD sales? I've got some tunes to put out there, no CD's but lots of tunes. I'm also a little concerned about copyright issues ... is that unfounded? Anybody have any comments? Thanks!

    Zefiro Acoustics ZA2

    Anybody heard any pros/cons regarding this card? I'm considering buying this because I definitely need AES/EBU connections to make a seamless connection with my board and can't seem to find many others that support this format. I don't need a multi-channel card because I use ADATs for tracking...
