Bought the cd yesterday-Vernon Reid & DJ Logic. Great music, but the recording sounds like crap. They had it limited to the nth degree. I've heard a lot of overcompressed music lately, but this one was beyond overcompressed. It is almost unlistenable. Opened up in cool edit it looks like a...

Has anything been announced concerning the release date & price of the C4? I'm considering a pair of ECM8000's or 603S's, but I'd hate to buy right before C4 comes out & kicks their ass.

I have a VC3Q. When the input gain is raised above 20 or so, it seems to introduce quite a bit of noise, and when you engage the compressor it causes clicks & pops. At lower input levels, this is not a problem. I know this isn't the most expensive pre, but is this a normal limitation for the...

We are getting ready to record guitar & vocal tracks at an old Charleston house with plaster walls & hardwood floor & I want to be able to pick up the 'live' quality of the surroundings. This gave me a good excuse to buy the B-3 I've had my eye on. A few questions: Recording vocals with the...

My 3 1/4" floppy is showing up in windows explorer as a 5 1/4" floppy. I cannot read from it or write to it. It doesn't show up at all under disk drives in Device Mgr. Any idea how to fix this?

I have a few songs we recorded on a VSR-880 that I am getting ready to dump into Vegas & finish. These are some rough mixes we did a while back of 2 of these songs. Due to our limited knowlege & eqiupment these basically sound like crap, but I am posting them in hope of getting some good...

Is there any software that will allow me to read (or import) backed up VSR-880 song files from my computer's cd-rom & convert them to wave format?

OK, so we re-recorded the bass & snare (popcorn fart), added a few more backup vox & tweaked the mix some. I think the levels on the guitars are better now, but I'm not so sure about the bass & vox. I'm still getting used to new monitors (M-Audio SP-5B's). This mix sounds like crap on my...

I just finished setting up a new DAW (Athlon 2200, win98se). When I try to copy backed up audio files from cd to the hard drive, computer freezes up at 'Preparing to Copy'. The cd drive is a brand new Plextor. Any ideas?

When I updated to 1.03, the 880 no longer sees my cd burner. I think Roland might have put something in this version to block people from using anything but a Roland cd writer. Roland's proprietary BS is really wearing thin. Hell, I'd have bought the Roland burner if it wasn't $200 more! So...

Well, thanks to the help of everyone on this board, I have a recording that is nearing completion. There are a few things left to do to this song, but I thought I should post it here & get some good feedback (or some not so good feedback if the case may be) before going further. This is my...

I have found that using Vegas 3, the master levels are always higher than they logically should be. Case in point: I have 2 tracks, neither of which peak above 0 db with no busses, effects, eq, or compression assigned to them. With the master fader at 0 db, the master levels are clipping...

just installed Vegas 3.0 using a Roland/M-Audio RPC-1 card-8in 8 out Windows XP I want to use WDM drivers, but my only options in Audio Preferences are Windows Classic Wave Driver & Microsoft Sound Mapper. Neither will let me record from any but the first 2 inputs. How can I get it to use WDM...

I was reinstalling XP on my system, I repartitioned & reformatted the hd, and just when the xp install was almost done-it froze up! After trying to wait it out a while, I turned the power off & back on. Now it won't even boot up enough to get to the bios. It just beeps over & over again, no...

I am wondering whether Vegas works with the RPC-1 card.

How does Vegas 3.0 compare to Cubase, Logic & Sonar? Does it have ASIO support? VSTi support? Would it make sense to use Vegas just for audio or is video its strong point?

I just reinstalled windows98 & reformatted harddrive and now when I go to the hd properties, The 'DMA' checkbox is gone. Anyone know how to get it back?

I was told by Midiman that it is bad to even share IRQ with ACPI IRQ holder for PCI steering. I read in other posts here that this is OK. When I disabled ACPI in the BIOS, I opened up a whole can of worms I wont even go into-(Don't do this unless you really know what you're doing). Once I...

After researching mobos on this board & elsewhere, I went with one with a VIA KT266A chipset. Many board members reassured me that the problems with the VIA's were solved & these were good boards. After 3 weeks of troubleshooting my clicks & pops, Midiman tells me that the KT266A chipsets are...
