Ok so I bought a firewire 410 from a friend which has two mic pre's. After messing with it, I am realizing that the mic pre itself is not giving me a decent sound.
Giving it some thought, the word PRE probably means that I should be running the outputs to some sort of additional amp and then...
over the last few months ive been trying to piece together a computer based home recording studio, so that i can start on my new album. i have some sound card questions,but first let me give you an overview of what i have and what i need. ive got a pod 2.0 and im about to purchase a mackie...
im well on my way now to setting up my computer based studio and ive started purchasing equipment but to finish the order, i need to ask some more questions. so far ive got a pod 2.0, a shure ksm27, and a nice set of studio ref headphones. now ive had my eye on the mackie 1202 because i record...
i have been a long time user of ntrack and ive recently decided to upgrade some equipment so i have some questions. there are tons of things im interested in buying, but id really like the ease of usb instead of the old sound card/breakout box, but will ntrack recognise the source of sound if...
even though i know absolutely nothing about it, ive been wanting to get my hands on protools for a while. friends say its very easy to work with and the mbox seems like a perfect opportunity. however, i have a couple of questions about it:
1. is this supposed to act like a usb external version...
I have recently invested boo koo dollar into
computer recording. Got a pod, nice computer, burner, etc. Thing is I only have a stander pci sb64. Now I've read up on 24 bit cards and they sound nice. I just want to know how necsasary a 24 bit card really is. I mean I play garage rock (with class...
Ok my problem is this: I've got a cheapo korg effects petal running into my line-in on my compter. Now I know this doesnt have the best sound quality in the world, but this goes beyond. While I'm recording with N-track, the sound seems to be somewhat optimal. However on playback, the sound...
Ok, I got n-track up and running. Running my guitar through a Korg effects petal into the puter. Both my cable and adapter are stereo and 16 bit stereo recording is on. Thing is when playing, music and tonal quality sound great (well good enough for a cheap effects petal) but after recording...
Ok, back in the day when i had no amp, I plugged my guitar through a korg effects petal into the line in and used my computer as an amp. Now I've been recording analog, but got serious about pc recording about a month ago when we bought a p3 450. I thought well I'll just do what I was doing...
Thanks for all the input. Certainly points me in the right direction. Seeing as how i have already gotten myself a really nice computer I think I'll try n-track. 35 bucks sounds reasonable to me, and definatly sounds better than buying a stand alone unit for 800 or so. My only other question...
I have this budget tascam 4-track, and all except maybe delivering superior sound quality, it has done me well. The problem is I really dig digital sound, and would like to implement this into my solo work. I do your average 3 peice set kind of rock and roll music. No sampling, no Trent...
Ok, so I downloaded this 1.0 version of vegas, to mess with and it seems I need a serial number. I realize this is probably illigal but if anyone wants to send me it, email it to me so the guy running the bbs doesnt get in trouble. swollenrod@hotmail.com
Thanks and remember i wont tell if you...
My question is, how the hell do I layer tracks accurately? Keep in mind Im using sound forge and cakewalk. With the analog 4 track you can just play along with the tape. It seems with software programs I cant get the track I'm recording to start simultaniously with the track I want to play along...
