    Nice MIDI keyboards under 49 keys ?

    I'm looking for a "pro" quality "full key size" (preferably) 25 key MIDI keyboard. I've got an MPK mini, but I don't really like the size or the feel/responsiveness of the keys (synth-action?) I don't need all of the pads and encoders and such. I don't really need 49 keys atm since at this...

    VSTi plugins not showing up

    Installed C6 on the new laptop. 32bit, even though the O.S. is 64bit. I've also got Komplete Elements and Maschine installed (pretty sure 32bit.) When I go to create an instrument track Reaktor, Kontakt, nor Maschine are showing up. Just the standard Cubase virtual instruments. Komplete was...

    annoying kidkage potential studio build thread

    :( I'm not sure that throwing up a wall in the middle is an option in with them... yet. But since I've ditched the control room idea, and have settled on making it one really big room (albeit with a cool brick wall in the middle), and we have decided to make a "cut-out" from the original 20x20...

    annoying kidkage potential studio build thread

    For as long as I can remember my mom has wanted to convert our adjoined carport, and back patio into proper rooms. Since me and my dad are finally getting around to taking care of other build/fix projects when we're off work, and we're always eager to do something, it looks like we will finally...

    One day I want to get "serious" monitors

    Throughout the past 6 years I've dreamed/wanted/hoped for many things: A guitar, a drum set, a halfstack, a recorder, a "studio", etc. I have a tendency to forget that everything I have today and everything I'm doing now at one point was just a crazy idea I had. I've spent time researching and...

    d00ds out there wanna recommend overhead mic stands?

    I've had these $20-$30 musicians gear tripod stands for a while now. So I've also felt incredibly uneasy whenever I suspend my LDC's on them. I also feel like they don't get high enough (Glynn Johns or recorderman), and it's kind of weird to position the mic nearest the floor tom since I'm so...

    Is is possible or worth it?

    Well, I'll start this off by saying that I just installed new RAM and a new processor in my PC. I'm sure it's better than what I had. Got me to thinking about this "spare" laptop. It's my sisters...well it's mine I guess since she gave it to me when she bought a new one. It's a Sony VAIO...

    yelling. loudness. cheating. licorice. wwwwwwhhhhaaaaaattttt???

    My previous way of vocal recording: Mic> preamp> tascam dp008. That was it. I'd set the levels pretty low, and just recorded them while monitoring the music through headphones of course. With really high levels. So naturally I yelled/ sang. Now that I've got a proper vocal chain (aka-...

    FS: TC Helicon VoiceTone T1 and ART Tube MP (Bundle)

    100% perfect condition. The problem is that I actually use them too much. I've had a beautiful channel strip for months that I really haven't even used yet because I keep running stuff through these :p I have the original boxes for both, as well as the essential manual. Usb cord included with...

    ohmuhgoodness. that *expletive* apc40... question from a non ableton user

    For a really long time now that APC40 has intrigued me. I should point something out though - I have never eh eh ehhhvvverr used ableton. Hey I know it's kind of weird, but it's getting to the point now where the APC40 is getting so attractive that I'm thinking about investing in one and...

    I've asked over at the Native Instruments forum, but got nothing yet. I'll copy and paste what I posted there. And references to "here" refers to their place. " I've had maschine for about a week now, and love it. I've been doing research and have found out that apparently it is possible to...

    Am I good to go for re-amping with Guitar Rig 5?

    I'm going to be getting komplete soon, and it happens to have Guitar Rig. I'm not getting komplete for guitar rig, but it definitely sweetens the deal. So I might as well record a direct track just in case I want to re-amp in Guitar Rig (which I'm sure can be done, right?) I've already got a...

    Sound Isolating "ear"phones?

    Alright, kiddies. I think I know what the solution to my problem is: sound isolating headphones. Only for drums. When I'm recording to monitor the other tracks. When I practicing to hear what I'm playing along to. And I wont have to turn up the Zune to deafing volumes :D to hear the track and...

    is something wrong with these?

    No problem. I just wanted to make sure it would mess anything up. Since I've got to build two full traps before I get to that corner anyway, who knows? I might be able to seat a full one there. Just trying plot everything out while I have time. Since Lowes STILL does not have my roxul. BTW...
