I threw together a recording of a short song I wrote. It's all DI from an Epiphone Les Paul. The tones are from the dinky Eleven Rig plug-in that accompanies Pro Tools 10 that has two amp models. I've been trying to get some usable guitar tones out of just DI and the basics that PT gives you...

A guy I know is selling his KRK Rokit RP8 G2s. I live in a smallish bedroom and have been using headphones for the past half year. Do you think I should go for them at 230 pounds for the full set? I don't know if I might be overshooting my dimensions here. If you think that there is a better...

Hey, it's me again. I'm having some performance issues with PT10 again on my desktop. I have PT10 on my laptop which is vastly inferior to my desktop PC but it never has an lag or buffering issues but I get an error message at least once a minute on my PC that the program isn't getting data fed...

Do any of you guys know that Graham guy on Youtube? I watched all of his "5 minute to a better mix" videos a few weeks ago and I found at least half of them pretty helpful. I signed up for his newsletter because it said that it would update me with more of that kind of stuff. Yeah, sure...

I'm trying to create a template in Pro Tools. My problem is that all my bus names are gone when I create an empty session. My usual saved settings are only available when I create an empty session and import files into it. I don't get it at all... I also only have about 25 busses instead of...

I'm trying to do what he does in this video but it isn't working. 5 Minutes To A Better Mix: Kick Drum Low End - TheRecordingRevolution.com - YouTube I have everything set up the exact same way: A kick drum track with a mono bus send that is acting as the key input to a mono aux channel with...

I don't understand the concept of effect sends and returns in DAWs. I'm using PT 10. Mike Senior writes in one of his books: ... "That your reverb plug-in is only outputting processed effect ("wet" signal) and not any unprocessed sound ("dry" or "direct" signal), otherwise sending to the...

I've got some questions about AD and DA conversions. I read an explanation on it that showed a primitive quantization based on a 3-bit system to show a close of up the sampled voltages being adjusted the binary values. Is there somewhere where I could hear what this sounds like? Should I...

Hey, I was at a workshop today where a guy took about three hours to explain that he records a dry DI signal along with a mic'd amp when recording guitars just in case the amp sound doesn't turn out that way it should have. Is there a bigger picture to this technique? I found his way of...

I just started Pro Tools up after a month of using Ableton and something went wrong. I never updated it but everything is changed. There is a big problem when recording my guitar using Guitar Rig 5 as a plug-in. When I listen to the recording, the sound is delayed by a few MS and is completely...

I've been reading "Understanding Audio" by Daniel M. Thompson. In the chapter about room treatments, he says that the only way to really stop audio from leaving a room is to increase the thickness of the walls with the proper materials. He goes on to say that "absorbtion materials" such as...

Hey, me and a friend made a song. Definitely not my first recorded work but the first one that I mixed. I'm hearing a bit of high frequency fuzz and occasionally slight clipping but I'm not sure if it's the recording or the speakers. They are my friends and they tend to be really fuzzy and...

Hello everybody, a friend of mine bought himself the 2i4. We've been having a small problem when two different devices are plugged into the interface at the same time. The device will always only play whatever is plugged into the the 1st input. The 2i4 is getting a signal from both paths but...

I got PT just a few days ago and am very new to it. I downloaded the free version of Drum Core today and don't understand quite how it works. A guide told me that I need an aux track and an audio track as well as a MIDI track to be able to play the drum tracks in PT. It works but it just seems...

I'm literally trying to deinstall an insert. I got rid of the program on my HD but it keeps on popping up in the Pro Tools inserts. I can start the program but all of the drum tracks are gone. It would seem that the program on deinstalled the audio and midi tracks but left itself on the...

I got a copy of Pro Tools 10 from a friend and I don't quite get a few things yet. On my friend's Mac he uses Logic. In Logic, I'll watch him loop a track and mess around with the EQ and it will be rendered in real time whereas I always have to hit "render" on PT's built in EQ before it changes...
