    Help with acoustic panel room placement

    Just moving the speakers 10 cm each can make a serious difference. How will you know if you don't measure?

    Help with acoustic panel room placement

    Wow! You can tell that from a drawing, without even knowing where the speakers will be? I'm amazed. And what height is the ceiling, please?

    Affordable interfaces for a 24 channel analogue mixer

    The closest I can get to your budget, is an RME USB Digiface. 32 In / 34 Out. Less than 500 € new. It would need 3 ADAT boxes like the Behringer ADA8000 for 24 I/O. If you look around these can be found 2nd hand for less than 100 € a piece. Still 800 € total, though. RME: Digiface USB You...

    Cubase can remotely!

    That's a cool idea I need to check out. Not for an elicenser or stuff like it. I stay away as far as possible from that stuff. I'm even amazed that works over IP...

    Mac: Two USB inputs

    The dynamic range is so high that mic and line level is the same input, with digital gain. Remote controlled, of course. And optional DSP opens up a lot of possibilities for measurement systems. Not for your average home recorder. The only one I ever encountered was in an Italian studio that’s...

    Plug iRig Acoustic into Audio Interface

    You seem to confuse Some stuff. Why don't you tell us what the plan is?

    Mac: Two USB inputs

    There is at least one audio interface that is true 32 bit. Base unit (8 channels) costs just over 16.000 €.

    Plug iRig Acoustic into Audio Interface

    I see no reason why that wouldn't work. Headphone out to line in. 3,5 mm to 6,35 mm TRS jack. Interesting thing. It's a MEMS omni with good specs. Have you tried it?

    Looking for a USB Audio Interface for Windows under $1,000

    There's no difference. If you can find a difference and dig deeper, it's because of different I/O impedance and the gear you have feeding the ADDA or getting it's signal from it. Mic preamps do differ. If you need >60 dB clean gain, the choices are a bit more limited. That's why some prefer...

    Looking for a USB Audio Interface for Windows under $1,000

    I don't know if it should be law. Maybe a tax is more like it. That way it would influence the consumer before he buys the stuff. Besides, taxes get policed far better :D Denmark already has this system, I believe. VAT is much higher on things that can't be repaired. We've got the local...

    You need at the very least 50 mm. 100 mm is even better. I never place absorbers with less than 100 mm thickness. If there's no place for those, I'd try to use another, denser material. But that gets very expensive and very heavy. And no bags around it, unless they are acoustically transparent.

    Looking for a USB Audio Interface for Windows under $1,000

    I have no problems with drivers from Focusrite, Presonus, Motu or most of the others. It's the support that's different. Focusrite gets good points from me cause their support is in-house. MOTU gets good points for a fixed repair price. You can send any MOTU interface back and get a recycled...

    It would be easier for us to test if you could give some links... Some companies use redirects for different parts of the world.

    Forget foam. The right kind is expensive and hard to get. Besides, why would it be inherently safe? All newly produced plastics exhale some stuff. Mineral fiber only produces dust, no chemicals. If you really want to be sure, consult your doctor. Asthma and eczema are too broad definitions to...

    Why Ebay? No numbers... Looks expensive. You need to go to specialised companies in your neighborhood. Those stock the different materials. And they know the numbers.

    Shure SM7B Static

    And you start the session usually around 8am? So it doesn't ALWAYS start at 12am? It sounds like electrostatic buildup noise to me. But my monitors are presently down, so I'm listening on crappy laptop speakers... And I also see no immediate reason why that buildup would always start at...

    Just look for mineral wool boards with a density >35 kg/m3. Buy 10 cm boards and set them up against the wall. You can cover them with fabric to you liking, but it's not necessary. And you can lean them into the wall, so no nails or holes and plugs needed. Don't do this with glassfiber boards...

    Is a dynamic mic better for me?

    While there's certainly some truth in that article, it all depends on the voice, the room and that particular microphone... Dynamic mics have definitely advantages, like not needing phantom power and generally having no higher end bump. But I've just acquired an vintage dynamic lavalier and...

    Multi-camera livestream recommendations

    You might still want to test at different hours of the day. My broadband is fine, except around 5 o'clock in the afternoon, when school is out. All the kids checking their social media tends to eat up a lot of bandwidth... No idea. I'm always very skeptical about such remarks. And fortunately...
