    AA 2.0 losing volume on bounce

    Hello All, I just upgraded to AA 2.0 from CEP 2.1. I haven't really done much research on this other than a quick google search so maybe someone here has a quick answer. When I bounce a track I'm losing somewhere around 2-3 db on the bounced track. So when I go to bounce a "bounced" track I...

    Spike Lee Joint

    Nothing to do with music or hip-hop but did anyone catch the Spike Lee documentary on Katrina? Man that sh*t bought back bad memories even though it seemed like yesterday. But it's one of the most accurate reportings I've seen so far because they were talking to actual people after the fact but...

    Low end problems

    Hello all, I wanted to get some input on possibly something I'm doing wrong here. I've been going back and remixing all of my songs as of recent but I'm having a huge problem with the low end on quite a few songs. My mixes translate well on desktop speakers and home stereo's but in cars I've...

    Echo Layla 3G PCI Card

    Echo Layla 3G PCI card & Cable. Anyone wanna make an offer? It'd be good for someone who uses more than 1 PC, that way you wouldn't need to pull and swap your PCI card. Breakout box got damaged during Hurricane Katrina, but I took my PC with the PCI card installed with me during evacuation...

    Looking for a Collab

    What's up everyone? I'm looking for someone to help me out with a hook. I see a few other people who have asked for the same thing here but I don't know if they got the hook they were looking for, so I don't have huge expectations. I'm hoping someone with a decent voice can sing my hook (nah...

    AT4040 Shockmount

    How sturdy is this shockmount? It's the first I owned that doesn't per se "lock" the mic in. Would it be reliable enough to suspend the mic from the shockmount? I'm just kind of nervous with the rubber band type support. Does anyone successfully use this method with this paticular model of mount?

    AT4040 compared to KSM27?

    Hello all, I would like to know how an AT4040 compares to a KSM27 if anyone knows from experience. I'm not asking what mic will sound better on my voice, just how the two compare.

    My Shure Blues

    I know you guys probably don't give a damn about my mic. But I figured I'd vent here. I bought a KSM27 in Mid-March of this year, only to "try" and return it on April 4th because of a bad crackle caused by the mic. Now the guy at GC doesn't take my word for it which is one thing, he's the only...

    Gate before or after Compressor?

    Generally when tracking and using a noise gate, should I put it before the compressor or after? My Chain looks like this now. (Mic-->Pre-->Compressor-->Interface) It seems to make sense both ways to me, will anyone chime in? Thanks in advance.

    Here's a Few Songs

    I'm not real big on posting my music online, I wanted everything to be mixed, mastered and presentable before I did, but hell I figured I'd contribute to the hip-hop area because it's so overlooked. I'm not one of those people who can't take criticism so if you don't like em that's cool, to each...
