I'm thinking about swapping out my Soundblaster Livedrive card with a Delta 1010. Anyone using this card with N-track? Any problems I should expect? (aside from the $600 price tag on the card).

Can anyone suggest a decent sound card with at least 4 inputs and midi that will run with Windows based N-track. Something in the price range of $400.

A buddy of mine just tossed me a Roland MC-500 MKII micro composer. Says it works like a champ, but he has no manual and no time to go over it with me. Seems pretty basic, and all I want to do is record midi files from my V-sessions and Keys. Figure it might be good for some live stuff, can't...

Is it better to compress the vocals while recording them, or after when recording on a PC?

OK, I've about made up my mind on buying this Bass Pod Pro for $329. Anyone have any suggestions or opinons on using this (or not using this) to record bass direct?

I have come into a 5' metal equipment rack (for severs, networking, etc.). I can easily fit all my gear (well, alot of it ), plus my PC, and a 17" monitor in this one rack. I have never heard anyone speak of using one of these in a home studio, so before I go ahead and bring it home I need to...

Was just wondering if anyone has any suggestions on how to go from a 1/8 out to 1/4 without losing any sound quality. I'm using a Soundblaster Platinum (I know, I know, please don't throw to many stones...I'll upgrade in the future), and going into Samson Resolv 50a's. The monitors have 1/4"...

Anyone familiar with the Samson Resolv 50a active monitors? I've been offered a set, but don't know much about them, and don't want to go thru the hassle ( it does involve a little hassle ), if no one has a kind word about them. I've been in the market for an active set of monitors to mix on...

I'm looking for a set of headphones that won't bleed for $100 or less. Anyone have any suggestions? Thinking about the Sony MDR 7506. Anyone using them?

I just picked up an Ovation 12 string Balladeer. It sounds really, really sweet unplugged, however....when I plug it in it sounds like total crap! Anyone have any suggestion on how to improve this? I'm not sure, but can the pick up or preamps be swapped out in these? Anyone ever mic one?

Anyone know where I can download a good "live audience" wav. track? Want to make a recording sound like it was recorded infront of about 5000 people or more, can't seem to find a sample anything like that.

Ok, for those of you that didn't get the "hate the greats" thread, and wanted to debate becasue you just can't shut the hell up when your heros are bashed, here is a very, very short piece of my list IN NO SPECIFIC ORDER.... 1. Kiss. The whole package. 2. Alice Cooper 3. John Denver 4 Willie...

I know I'm gonna get shot at for this, but here goes... When I was in middle school and High school I was never into what every one else was. I was a big, big, big Kiss and Alice Cooper, Rush, Black Sabbath, and Ted Nugent fan. To me everyone that was into the Who, or Zep, or Hendrix, just...

My SM57 isn't cutting it for my Boogie. Works well on my Marshall JCM800, but I'm not really happy with it for the Mesa. Any suggestion on other choices for a good mic for guitar cabs?

I feel the need to add a couple more compressors to my modest studio rack. I'm ok with the Alesis 3630's, but I feel they don't really live up to the hype. There ok, I love the way my rack looks like a Christmas tree with all the lights flashing, but they leave a little to be disired. Any...

A buddy of mine just showed up with a couple of mics he got in a package deal. MXL 2001p and MXL603S ( got them both for $125 new) Anyone have any feedback on these mics and what they would be best suited for?

Just wondering what the thoughts on a good "inexpensive" studio amp and monitor set up would be? Sound will be coming from a pc into the amp. It's a small control room 14L x 20w.
