    Master fader level rising

    Just not enough information here to provide a solid answer. Will I assume the mention of "tracks" and "master fader" are references to a DAW? I'll also assume you're shooting for an output level of -6 to -12 and not +6 to +12? With those questions on the table, the short answer is, at least...

    Presonus 1818VSL stupid question

    I'm with papanate in that I doubt the unit is defective and, like him, I suspect something is amiss in Studio One's I/O page and not the box itself. Anything is possible though. The 1818 was a pretty good interface and played nicely with Studio One's low latency "z" mode. So ya might wanna give...

    Can the Tascam Model 24 make a good recording?

    Yea James that just shouldn't be. Something is wrong with the board that absolutely can be corrected. These are decidedly not duds. As I mentioned I'll offer my help if you're ever inclined. A gaggle of thoughts however; These devices are pretty complex and my first thought is I wouldn't look...

    Presonus 1818VSL stupid question

    Another component you'll have to address. Since apparently 7 and 8 are the default outs for the headphone mix you'll have to adjust. Since setting up Studio One to feed independent outs (channels and tracks 1 through 8) to your mixer, as it stands there would logically be channels that would no...

    Can the Tascam Model 24 make a good recording?

    Three years as an interface to Pro Tools and Studio One. Hasn't failed me a single time. Not once. I'll assume your firmware updates are current? Your DAW is up to date? Historically each makes an immediate difference. If that's all up to date I'd think about sending it to Tascam. No reason this...

    Presonus 1818VSL stupid question

    No that's not exactly what it means. Outputs 1 and 2 do share the stream with the Main Out 1 and 2. That won't cause a problem with accomplishing what you're trying to do. Don't physically route anything out of the Presonus Main Outs. No TRS cables on the Main Outs. Similarly, 7 and 8 shares an...

    Presonus 1818VSL stupid question

    If I understand you (it's still a bit murky), you wish to run 8 analog outputs (TRS), from your DAW, out of the back of the Presonus, and onward to 8 analog inputs on your mixer. Mix or re-mix on the board and then return that mix, 2 track/stereo to your DAW. So the problem you're encountering...

    What keyboard?

    I'm pretty sure it was a CS80. A friend of mine had one, and may still. The oscillators drifted on that machine. Actually, the oscillators drifted on almost all the machines up until the Oberheim and Prophet. If you listen to the Bruce recording you can hear some drifting goin' on which although...

    Can the Tascam Model 24 make a good recording?

    Still looks good to me! You're kinda tryin' to pound a square peg into a round hole and then declaring the peg a shame :) At what it does, and what it's designed to do, there still is very little (if anything) on the market that does it as well as the Model 16 and 24. It is fundamentally and...

    Footswitch on Mackie ProFX mixer

    Any simple TRS, on-off footswitch will work. Momentary footswitches will work also but to be safe it would need to be one with a polarity selector.

    My tascam DP-01FX won't let me load anything from the menu it's stuck on home page and if I push play I can't stop

    Power the unit down. Simultaneously hold down the "track edit" button and the "shut down" button while rebooting the machine. Initialize for a factory reset. There is also a reformat disk function that may also be useful. Of course, caution when reformatting drives as obviously all recording...

    Best Speakers/Monitors From A Mixer?

    We're just gonna have to agree to heartily disagree :) I've been in far too many great rooms to consider it a "recent fashion". And, as a side note, I've been at the audio/mixing/production game since 1969. You're in good company with another very old fart :)

    Best Speakers/Monitors From A Mixer?

    Not to be a contrarian cause I tell ya at times I certainly can be :) The best system one can afford starts, embryonically, with budgeting for the room. Almost everyone who has ever built a great home recording/mixing environment will tell you, sooner or later, they realized the room was the...

    Best Speakers/Monitors From A Mixer?

    Yep, Dave, I agree with this. I do understand the idea of small rooms, limited budgets, and perhaps a significant other objecting to drastic changes in the aesthetics of a particular area of the house :) I'm also familiar with various DSP correction software and monitors onboard correction. I do...

    Best Speakers/Monitors From A Mixer?

    Yea Dave, I certainly agree that one should get the very best monitors that also comfortably fit their budget. I will however continue my mantra that a good room trumps a good pair of monitors virtually always, and honestly by a long shot. With respect, I'm gonna strongly disagree that one...

    Best Speakers/Monitors From A Mixer?

    I've said this often. The critical chain in recording is something to the effect, and in order of; 1) the player, 2) the room, and 3) the instrument. All else including mic's, speakers, compressors, DAW's, and what-have-you, falls far, far behind. Any decent brand of currently available...
