I want to use the stereo outs on my motu to send my entire mix into my mixer, allen and heath, beautiful preamps and eq.

    Ns10s taking over the world

    I have been looking at pictures of pro studios, they all must have $1 million of gear, no exagerration. Main monitor genelecs, near field genelecs, but on every equipment list and in every control room i see the ns10s, the event 20/20bas are common monitors too, but not as prominent as the...

    MOTU to SONAR Distortion

    When I set my levels to record I look at the mixer, the soundcard, and then the software. What I always find is that the mixer and the soundcard show the same levels, but the software is considerably higher. Is this dc offset? If so, I have a plugin that corrects it, free from analogx. Would...

    Izotope Ozone

    Anyone Else ever heard of this program, I found it on directx files downloaded the demo loved it and i bought it and use it to master all my songs. It works as a directx plug-in, and it the difference it makes its just astounding. Try it, its a lot cheaper than high end hardware type finalizers.

    an amp's direct output

    If i were to use a bass amps direct output, could i connect it straight into my souncard which has balanced inputs. The only reason im asking instead of just trying it is i dont have the cable, xlr(the amps output) - 1/4, or the amp yet.

    "transparency" of a mix

    Hi, i was listening to pearl jam today in the car, and the whole sound was just so open. The vocals were upfront, but not screaming in your ear, the bass was audible without being loud, the guitar was clean and strong but not overpowering and the drums were really infront of me. Two weeks ago...
