    Antec Sonata

    Has anyone tried one of these yet? They claim they're pretty quiet, but I haven't seen any actual db listings for it. Seems to me if Antec is going to brag about how quiet it is, they should provide numbers to back that up. I just thought it seemed like a pretty decent deal, for $110...

    Can I just say....

    That this message board is pretty much the best recording board on the net? Sure, we don't all see eye to eye; "Mac sucks". "No it doesn't" "AMD's and Via stuff is no good for audio" "yes they are" "Delta's suck" "no they don't" But overall, we remain, for the most part, civil. On another...

    A theory I would like to try someday.....

    What if you had a file server setup with Gigabit Ethernet, and another computer (a notebook is what I had in mind) to record with, using the file server as a network hard drive. Now, taking into account that people successfully record with firewire, which is only 400Mb/sec, and this is...

    Behringer B1 or Oktava 319

    Which cheap large condenser would you guys recommend? I'm on a strict budget, but I need one of these bad boys and want to hear if anyone else is as cheap as I am, and if so what are ya using? Thanks, Jeff

    Alternative similar to Vegas?

    I have the demo of Vegas 2.0 that I got from SF awhile back. I love it, but obviously it's not made anymore, and I can't save projects with the demo. I want an app similar in layout and function. Anybody have any ideas? I got a deal on Cubase 5.1, and I hate it. Too friggin' complicated, and...

    Laptop HD recording issue

    Alright, so I have my Gateway notebook that I eventually want to record on. Everytime I see an ad for the MOTU or any of the USB stuff, it never says anything about needing an extra drive for audio. Everytime I visit the Digi Users Conference, they say that you can record directly to the...

    Drums in Acid

    I have Acid Music 2.0 and I have the RADS and Drum Tools loop CD's...... I cannot get the drum fills to lead into the loops and sound realistic. It does the fill, then there's a delay, and then the drum loop starts. How do you guys do it? This is really pissing me off.

    Dual CPU's

    Even though I know that for the most part, Duallies arent necessary for audio, I was wondering what multitrack apps support them? The reason is because I was thinking of getting a dual CPU mobo because Adobe Photoshop supports it, so I wanted to maximize it's use.

    CardBus vs. PCMCIA II or III

    What says if my laptop is cardbus or not? I want to get a FW drive for my laptop, but I don't have a FW port on it. So I need to get the adapter card. The trouble is, I don't know if the card will work.

    iBook and M Box

    Alrighty, I might be getting a student grant to buy a computer for school. I have decided to ditch the Windows machine I'm using now (with an ECHO Mia), due to space issues (long story, but I definitely need a laptop). Anyway, I'm mighty tired of Windows, and I've been using my friend's G3...

    A-Open Tube MB

    Anyone have this thing yet? They claim a different in sound, but I wonder if it's all hype. It'd be cool just to say I have a "tube" motherboard, and throw it in a case with a clear panel on it! Here's the link.

    Intel 845 chipset.

    OK, so I'm getting a new motherboard and CPU, but I'm not sure which version of chipset I should get. I was looking at the DDR enabled version of the 845 chipset, but newegg.com lists an 845G, 845E, and 845D. Which one should I get, or does it not matter? I'm also getting the M Audio Omni...

    balanced and unbalanced cables

    ok, so i did a search on the forum, but all the threads were screwed up with jumbled html, so I'm going to ask the question anyway. I'm not new to recording, but I'm new to computer recording. I just bought the Echo Mia, and it has balanced inputs and outputs. Do I need special 1/4" cables...

    Mia or Audiophile?

    So I sold my Boss BR8, cuz I want to get into computer based recording. My price range on sound cards is about $200, and I have an AMD based system, with a VIA KT133a chipset. I'm looking at either the Audiophile, or the Mia from Echo. Does anyone have any experience with the cards, and...

    HD partitioning vs. separate drives

    I was wondering if anyone has tried just partitioning a drive into 2 separate drives, instead of buying 2 drives, one for OS and apps, the other for music. I'd like to get a 120gig 7200rpm, then split it for OS and music. Would this work? I know you're supposed to have separate drives for...
