    power conditioner

    thanks for the info. i still think i'm going to go with the pl plus because from what i've read the noise filtration on them seems to be pretty good. any other thoughts on this?

    power conditioner

    O.K. I'm thinking of getting a power conditioner for my little home studio setup(DAW and a couple synths). My main priority is RFI/EMI filtration and some surge protection. I have pretty decent power in my area and am not worried about brown out protection or being able to run my stuff for...

    which preamp for keyboard

    O.K. I've been trying to record my xv-88 (specifically the piano expansion board) but I just haven't gotten a hot enough signal and I've also gotten some noise. I've got mogami cables and good connectors and the noise is not from the AC. I have been running the line outs straight into my mia...

    noisy synth

    No, I'm not. I've been resistant to using a preamp because for right or wrong I always just figured the less things I run the synth through the cleaner my signal would be. I'm recording on a pretty good DAW setup in cakewalk so I don't think I need a mixer. But I guess maybe a preamp is what...

    noisy synth

    I have a roland xv-88 and i love it. I have been trying to record the srx-02 piano board, which i also love. the only problem is that i record with the volume on the synth all the up and i think the synth itself is generating noise. i am going to explore a noise isolation filter for my ac...

    cables

    od, i've decided to get some mogami quads. other than the fact that i need 1/4 balanced TRS connectors for the patches, is there anything else i should know to make sure i'm getting the best connectors?

    cables

    I appreciate the advice. Is there a particular type of those brands I should get? WHy are monster cables so much more expensive than the others?

    cables

    by flat i just mean that recording doesn't really seem to catch the nuance and expression of the sound that i hear when just playing. right now i'm using hosas.

    cables

    thanks for the advice. i've checked out the monster 1000 studio pros, and they sound decent to me i guess, but i really don't know. they look like they are going to be about $100.00 for the 12 foot (although 6 is all i need, but i can't find that). any input on these from anyone?

    cables

    i shouldn't have said "acoustic based mix" because it's actually all digital. I just meant to achieve an acoustic feel.

    cables

    I'm recording a roland xv-88 using cakewalk on a p4 1.3G with a mia soundcard. Mostly I'm recording lightly layered piano or solo piano with the piano expansion board. This piano board with a few of the xv's effects is exactly the sound i want, but when i record it it is sounding a little bit...

    be careful

    thanks for the info. Can you tell me exactly who you called to get your stuff back. I know they filed ch. 11 but that doesn't mean they can simply keep everything people send them. even if they don't fix it, they have got to send it back to me. btw, bankruptcy may only protect them from...

    be careful

    I'd give serious thought to purchasing anything from alesis. i bought monitors that worked for about two weeks and then one stopped powering up. sent them to alesis FIVE MONTHS AGO and have not yet heard a thing from them, despite my persistent calls. I'm not really happy considering i spent...

    cw noise reduction

    I'm recording right from my synth into my mia soundcard while running cakewalk. I'm still getting a little noise I'd like to try and eliminate, that I guess is coming from the synth (or maybe better cables would help? -what kind and where?) Anyway, I don't think Cakewalk pa9 has any noise...

    recording solo piano

    Does anyone have any suggestions about recording solo digital piano. I'm recording from a roland xv-88 with piano expansion card into cakewalk on my pentium IV, 640 mb ram system through an echo mia soundcard on balanced inputs. Specifically, I don't really want to go crazy with processing or...

    Noise Floor Reduction

    I'm recording from a roland xv-88 into my mia soundcard in cakewalk. I'm getting a little more noise than I would like that i guess is simply coming from the xv-88. I don't see any way to reduce it on recording, so I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas on how to reduce the noise in cakewalk or...

    I'm pretty new to using a Roland xv-88 and and surprised I can't find any internet user's groups out there for it. Anyone no of one for the xv-88 or I guess the xv-5080?
