yea on my mixer it has -10dbv and +4 dbu. i just wanted to know what people normally use to record vocals out of the two. and to people who use the 4dbu do they use use stereo jacks into the line in cable to connect the mixer to the sound card?

yea i have sound forge. so after i make the sine wav in there, how do i get the sound to my mixer?

oh so +4bu and -10dbv are just the type of gear u have? i thought rca connections were -10dbv and the line looking jacks were +4dbu. thanks

i was trying to calibrate my DAT so when it reaches 0 my mixer reaches +12dbu. i read it from http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/apr98/articles/gainstructure.html "If you set up a 1kHz line-up oscillator on your mixer and adjust its level to exactly 0VU on the mixer output meters, you can go into...

does every mixer have a +4dbu jack? how does it look. also what is the difference between that and -10dv. is -10dbv when u record using the rca cables from your mixer REC OUT into the sound cards line out jack (the blue circle)?

i'm tryna to calibrate my DAT with my mixer so where to i find a 1kHz line-up oscillator? and how do i hook it up and perform test?

yea but what im sayin is that if i dont turn it up to 3 oclock it barely pick up any signal and i have a shure ksm27 condenser mic. sonar peak meter right? theres different measuring meters. so when u turn the gain on the channel all the way down u still pick up a good signal or do u have to...

thanx alot glen for that post. i will definetly do some research on it. mrhotapples u only turn your gain up to halfways sometime? for me doin a regular vocal take i have to turn my gain to a little over 3 oclock. im loud but not screaming like u said. isnt 3 oclock to high? i hope my firepod or...

what exactly does the solo button do? what if i only have one channel being used which is the mic preamp can that count as solo since i'm only occupyin 1 channel

i'm so lost with this dbfs stuff and line signal. i dont use my sound card. i just plug my firepod into the firewire and use that as my sound card. and when people say -18dbfs is that depending how loud u sing or not or its just a certain amount of gain of the firepod or whatever other gear...

man where do people get there bassline for hip hop beats? what software can produce basslines like that. If u use fl studio can u tell me how to use the 3x osc. i tried tweaking it so many times but it still sounds terrible lol.

farview i don't have a solo on my mixer. and when u say turn the fader up till it reaches 0 do you mean 0 on the mixer while singin into the mic?

farview can u explain to me how to do the calibrated test? and does it matter what my sound card line in level is set to (does it have to be set to 0 right)?

if so, how far (o clock wise) do u turn the channel gain to reach -18dbfs and do u use the rca REC OUT to capture the sound?

let me guess do you have the yamaha mg 10/2?

ok i found and old mixer in a box (peavey 500 unity series) and it's faders are not the ones u slide up and down. they are the ones u turn (o' clock) faders. the master fader is labeled from 0 (being the lowest) all the way to 10 (being the highest) and it's also labeled like that for the...

i'm using fl studio tho so how do i do that.

do software synths such as hypersonic or sonic synth have headroom? also how do u get software synths to 24 bit? is that possible or are they already at 16 bit? or how do i get them to 24 bit in fl studio
