I needed another pair of cans for my vocal booth and mixing at night. I've narrowed my search down to the Beyerdynamic DT770Pro, the Sennhieser HD280Pro, and the Sony MDR7506. Right now I have Sony MDR V600 and Sennheiser HD530II (open design; more a hifi headphone than for studio applications)...

hey guys -- wassup? just finished a new track. Its inspired by my recent trip to Beijing and is essentially electronica with an Asian flavor. I sampled like 4,000 year old Chinese zithars and guitars (from CDs which I've brought back from China) and applied all sorts of fun processing to it...

stupid questions: I have a coupla synths and one MIDI keyboard to control them. What I did so far was "Keyboard MIDI out" -> synth 1 MIDI in -> synth 1 MIDI through -> synth 2 MIDI 1 -> ... etc. That worked fine for up to 3 synths, but now am running into latency problems when I add another...

hi -- I'd like to add another synth to my small collection to produce electronic music (dance music; DnB, jungle, house). So far I only have a Korg MS2000, Oberheim OB12, Korg EM1, EMU XL7, and a collection of soft synth. Since my budget is rather small (less than 900 buxx) I am toying wiht...

hi guys -- wassup? just finished a new & shiny electronica tune. It has some samples of the movie Casablanca in it (not cleared yet), inspired by the Sacre Bleu album by Dimitri from Paris (he used samples of 'Breakfast at Tiffanies' in one of his songs). One of my main problems is still how...

hey guys, I'd like to know which mixer/soundcard combination you'all use. Anything you wanna add would help (problems, benefits). Also, do you use digital/analog mixers and PCI/FireWire/USB interfaces? Thanxxxxx!

hi -- I have n MS2000R which stopped working all of a sudden: when I switch it on, the display and the 1/INST 2/VOICE switch on. However, the 1/Inst 2/Voice switch off after 2 seconds and the display is light, but stays blank. No other LED comes on. Any ideas what I could do??

I read the manual of my M-Audio BX8 studio monitors and it says that they shouldn't be placed horizontally. Anyone knows why??? I've placed them horizontally and they sound just as good. I am leaving them that way -- unless it can damage them.

hi guys & girls -- I was wondering: what's the best <$300 mic? Just kidding. :p If I read the numerous articles about high-end mics in recent issues of recording mags or in discussion on this board, people talk about the Telefunken, Neumann, Lawson, and other "stratospheric" mics all the...

hey guys, I was wondering if you could tell me more about these Gefell mics: MV 692 PM 750 PM 860 They seem to be SDCs, right? How do they compare to other SDCs like the Neumann 180s series or others. I am asking because I see lots of them on the German Ebay site. They seem to be going cheap...

I am about to finish my first demo and have a question: 1) Are the names of albums protected by any law? Even if there's an existing album with a name I'd like to chose, will I be in legal problems? 2) Is there a data base (www) where I could look up which artist and album names are already...

hi guys -- I have a Sennheiser MD 441 which I'd like to trade for a decent LDC condenser. The MD 441 looks & works like new. No dents/scratches, comes in original box plus frequency test chart plus 3 mic cables. Barely used. I can send pix of you are interested. Need a LDC for female vocals...

hi guys -- I am having a rather humble computer interface right now, the Roland VM3100Pro. I am using it to produce dance music/DnB with a bunch of outboard synth and drum boxes. Since the VM3100 only has 8 channels, I am having a simultaneous 8 in/out setup in combination with my Roland RPC-1...

hi all -- last week I got a pair of M-Audio BX8 studio monitors. Just finished a track using them, and did some pre-mastering with Izotope Ozone. The tracks sounds reaaaally good on the studio monitors (deep bases, crispy clear synth & vocals, etc). In order to avoid a muddy sound, I also used...

yo y'all, I just finished my second project and thought you could give me your feedback. Its kinda dark "Drum 'n Bass / Electronica" in E minor at 160 bpm. Let me know what you think, will ya? Here's the link: http://www.astro.psu.edu/~immler/music/Make_it_Jump.mp3 Peace!

I have seen many ads for an Emagic Logic Platinum 6 for PC. Its sometimes called "Logic 6 Big Box". Here's an example: http://mwaudio.com/Logic%20platinum.htm http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2554782201&category=41786 I tought there is no such thing as Logic 6 for pc/windows??

wassup? I had my first female vocal session last night. I used a Sennheiser MD441 with pop-filter, plugged into a Focusrite Green channel strip, with slight compression (2:1) & de-essing, fed into my pc running Logic 5.5. The female vocalist wasn't that great, to say the least, so after 4 hrs...

hi there -- I am shopping for studio monitors (<$500). Since I have a rather small studio and the monitors would be sitting right next to my walls, about 1.5-2 meters away from me (less than 6 feet), I guess I needed "near-field monitors", right? My questions is: I have a power amp with 500Watt...

Just a cautionary warning about the Kazaa web site where lots of people are getting some of their software and plugins from. I downloaded some audio software from Kazaa just to test it and see which one I'll purchase (no -- really! :rolleyes: ). Turned out that the downloaded software was full...

hi there -- right now I use the Roland VM3100Pro interface which has 8ins/out at 44kHz/24bit. Cost me $700 about a year ago. While 24bit significantly improves the sound compared to 16bit, I'd like to step up to 96kHz bandwidth. The problem is: I only have a budget of $500.- Any idea if I...
