    Source>PRE>RNC>Lexicon>Tape

    I understand that the RNC is a stereo compressor and that it can only be used on one source at a time. This may be a rather elementary question but I'm having trouble finding an easy way to double mic acoustic guitar. When I tried running my 2 oktava mk-012's first into the DMP3 then RNC then...

    struggling with the mixdown feature being truthful....

    I had problems with not only what I hear in tracking being "true" to the mixdown wave but even worse I had problems with the mixdown wave being true to CD. I'm using KRK rokit 5's. Theyre not the greatest but for 300 dollar monitors Im satisfied. I just don't think it's the monitors. I'm just...

    new gear, new tune, vocal critique.....

    I just got a new setup put together and attempted my first song. I used cool edit and I'm reasonably satisfied with the results I suppose. I wouldn't mind some vocal critique since I think my vocals are generally the weakness on my songs. Let me know what you think about the mix in general too...

    myspace music page, what's the deal here?

    I couldn't decide whether to ask this in the dragon cave or here . I guess mp3 clinic was nearest to my problem. So I finally finished a song I deem halfway decent enough to post on my new myspace music page. But when I go to the add mp3 page it says unknown error occured and won't let me...

    "synth type" feedback to monitors

    So I am running 4 tracks of acoustic guitar from the computer to a stereo track out(1 take bridge and neck panned hard left,2nd take the same panned hard right). When I run them out of the back of my soundcard through the Lex verb and back into the inputs on the front i get this hideous constant...

    Up sides of XLR I/O on signal processors....

    So most of my rack gear (compressor, effects, etc) all have XLR I/O but I really haven't had much use for them. I just use the TRS. I don't think any of them have pre's built and aren't AES/EBU so what good do they do since XLR tends to be a standard on all of these units?

    How easy is it to fry a pre?

    I just got a DMP3 and I used it once or twice already with my mxl v67g and an oktava mc012 and it worked fine. I'm still waiting on my interface in the mail so I just plugged in my Sennheiser phones into the DMP3 output. Today when I tried again it didn't work, neither channels are working, but...

    Aardvark Q10, manipulating the frequency

    After exhausting a few other options I'm going to return to a Q10 for many reasons. Though they're sort of support-less (other than a few recent webgroups) the price, the SPDIF and MIDI, decent pre's, inserts, I/O capabilies, and PCI stability (some of the time) was enough to convince me to sit...

    WTB: DMP3 , MXL V67i, AKG K171 Headphones, DBX 166 compressor...

    Pre-less interface with midi and inserts (hopefully USB or PCI)

    Ok here's the deal. I thought about posting this in the soundcard section but I don't want to annoy anybody with what could be considered a newbie question. I've tried both the Aardvark Q10 and a Tascam mixer into a Motu Adat interface and neither were really for me. I really like the sound of...

    Reverb & Compression, should one come first?

    After buying and selling a schload of recording gear to see what I liked best I've finally come down to a couple Lexicon Processors, a little midi keyboard, a firepod, 2 Oktava's MC012's, an SM57, a D112, and a Rode NTK. I'm still waiting on the Firepod so I haven't actually been able to use...

    Cheap ADAT card

    Im minimalizing my ADAT needs. I had MOTU with 24 channels ADAT and I decided I just don't need that many simultaneous tracks so I sold it off and one of my 2 Tascam mixers to buy a laptop for mobile recording reasons. I'm going to offer this guy $100 if this item stays up for another 4 or 5...

I will ship with original manual, original packing materials box etc and I'll even throw in a TDIF cable for shits and giggles (hey, cables can be expensive ; ) ) I need a new laptop and decided having 2 of these mixers isnt...

    Tascam TM-D1000 w expansion card, Motu 2408 w/ 424 PCI card

    I am selling an original Motu 2408 and it comes with the PCI 424 card and a 10 (maybe 15) foot firewire cable. Note for PC users: The 424 card is said to work fine with most PC's. It worked with mine however, I'm selling it as is and I can't refund your money because it doesn't work with your...

    Extra fast play speed

    So I just switched my setup to a couple Tascam Digi Mixers and a Motu 2408 with a PCI 424. Last night I had everything up and running perfectly for mixdown and Record mode. But today when I turned everything on a few strange things happened. Firstly, I had everything setup excatly like I had it...

    Room Treatment, room full of stuff

    So I know the room one is in can be basically the most important thing in getting a good acoustic drum sound recorded. The room I am limited to has all kinds of things in it. A huge couch, a bed, TV, dressors, bookshelves, wallshelves, my studio setup, desks, insulated tile ceiling, and...

    using a preamp, Pre A/D or dare I say Post A/D?

    What would the difference in sound quality be to using a preamp before A/D conversion as opposed to running an already recored digital track out of your computer , thru the pre, and back in to the computer. Obviously the D/A summing that takes place while processing the already recorded signal...
