    Help me pick a mic, please !

    The best mic I have had so far is a Behringer B-1. So, it's time for me to step up, and spend some money. I'm looking to spend anywhere from $600 to $1200. Mic will be used for vocals, guitar cabs, overheads, etc. Looks like these are my options.... or at least, the mics I know I can buy...

    ...before I sell Pro Tools.....

    Hey Guys, I am 3 seconds away from selling Pro Tools (or simply throwing it in the garbage). It has severed it's purpose for me for 4 months or so now, but the reality is, the software is a slow and clunky dinosaur of a program, which eats ram and cpu time, and seems to do something quirky...

    Impedance Knob - what is it for?

    I have a ART TPS 2 Pre Amp, which has a "Input Impedance" knob on it. I have never understood what it is for. It goes from a range of 150 to 3K. I have read the instruction manual for the unit, but still do not understand what I would do with this knob, so I have always left it at 150. Can...

    Ableton Live - why so popular ?

    What am I missing with Ableton Live ? Seems to be the hottest thing going right now...... even Pete Townshend is giving it props. I've watched several video's on it, read the info on the site, and screwed around with the demo for a bit. WHY IS THIS THING SO POPULAR ? This thing keeps...

    M-Audio Projectmix I/O

    Anybody else thing the manual for this is really vague ? Most things are self explanatory and easy to do - but I can't figure out some of the more advanced buttons. (Chan Info, Rotary Encoders, etc.) Anybody using a Footswich for this ? I have one hooked up - but it does nothing. (Using Pro...

    Goodbye, Roland-forum friends...

    Well, I've traded my Roland VS-2000 in and exchanged it for M-Audio Projectmix I/O and Pro Tools 7.3. My main reasons were, because Roland pissed me off by discontinuing the life cycle of the VS-2000 even though it still has some bugs, and also, could have probably still been upgraded with...

    Pro Tools Torubles

    I'm trying to learn Pro Tools, but currently only using the M-Powered Demo download. The issue I am having, is I cannot figure out how to record a virtual instrument (Softsynths, BFD, etc) as audio. I can get my midi to play the Virtual Instrument. I can get an Audio Track to play the...

    Sorry If this Thread has been done before, I did search the forum several times, and did not find my answer.

    Masking tape on the mixing board....

    Possibly a dumb question....... but when you guys get the masking tape out, and label your tracks on the mixing board "Vox1, Vox2, BASS, Snare, Gtr1, Kick, OH, etc." is there any "universal" way of assigning tracks to instruments. For example.... do you always try to assign the bass...
