    Work in Progress

    The Field - First Mix As stated, this is a work in progress. I'd appreciate any comments/tips on the mix and production (textural additions/structure ideas). Cheers guys and gals. Edit: Just slapped some headphones on and noticed the drum room mics are quite lobsided to the right :confused: :mad:

    MBox 2 Problems

    I'm having problems with my mbox 2. I used to be able to use it with Pro Tools, and as a soundcard for OSX without any problems. Lately, with both OSX and PT, it works for a few seconds, and then out of nowhere the "Mic" lights on the input panels at the front will display red, while the USB...

    Cubase 5.1 and Mbox 2 problems

    Ok, so I got a lend of Cubase 5.1, and I'm trying to learn to use it. I put it on my PC (Windows XP SP3), and it worked fine with my MBox 2, after it took me a little while to (learn how to) set it up. Now, I put it on my mac (Late 2006 generation Intel iMac, running Windows XP via Boot Camp). I...

    A question to those who mic live drums using multiple mics. For example: Kick Snare Top Snare Bottom Hats Toms OH L+R Room (mono or stereo) What are your processes for checking phase before recording? Kick and snare against the overheads? What? :confused: And, if you've messed up on the way...

    How much space for Windows boot drive?

    Long story short: I've created a 50gb partition on my iMac, and I'm using MacDrive to allow XP to see the "other drive", which I'll be running my data off. Just wondering, I've used 10gb so far just on software and shizz on the 50gb xp partition, so I have 40gb left. But before I go any further...

    Pre-Production Forum idea

    This is just a thought I had. I was wondering if anyone here, like myself, uses tablature/scoring software such as Guitar Pro, Sibelius etc. to work out song ideas before they go to tape. If so, I think it'd be a neat idea if there was a forum (or even just use the mp3 clinic) where we could...

    Partitioning Macintosh HD

    I have an iMac (late 2006 generation) with a 120gb internal hard drive. I'd like to partition the internal HD into two 60gb (or maybe 40 - OS/80 - Data, depending on your recommendations). I'd like to do this so that my Pro Tools software and data aren't being read from the same drive (which I...

    Left and Right Monitors sound different

    I have two KRK Rokit 5's, both bought from Thomann (one single purchase). I was doing some mixing, and I noticed the balance was a little off. I've checked the input gain on the monitors (both 0dB), and the HF Response (both 0). Then I set up one mono track in Pro Tools, and pulled the left...

    Make Reaper look and act like Pro Tools

    Ello fellers! I'm thinking about getting into Reaper. I heard yesterday that I can make it look and feel like Pro Tools (which I'm used to), which has kind of inticed me a little further into looking into it. The main reason I want to use it is for the VST engine (the RTAS one sucks), but I'd...

    Another "Cheap Audio Interface" Thread

    I'm looking for a cheap USB/Firewire audio interface just to use as an output from my PC to my KRK's. It doesn't need inputs (other than USB/FireWire). I just need it to act as a soundcard for the PC (Winamp, Windows System Sounds, Games etc.) I have an MBox2, and it works fine as a soundcard...

    Windows XP 2002, Service Pack 3 I just swapped for an M-Audio Keystation 61es. I have it plugged in via USB, and the "Found New Hardware" didn't work. I went to the M-Audio site and downloaded the drivers for this keyboard, and installed them. It told me it was successful. The keyboard is still...
