    Aaarrrghhh! No CD Audio in Windows!

    I changed out my motherboard with a new one, and took out my Soundblaster Gold audio card which I only used for MIDI. Reinstalled everything. Everything works fine, but I can't play CD audio!!!! When you click on the Volume Control Mixer icon at the bottom you get properties for my soundcard...

    Win 98 or Win 2000 with SONAR and Delta 1010?

    Using SONAR and a Delta 1010. SONAR supposedly has fast capabilities with Windows 2000, however I have heard from people that Windows 2000 will hog your RAM. I have Windows 98 on my recording computer right now, and I also have Windows 2000 so I could switch it with no outlay of cash. What do...

    Rode NTK

    NTK and guitars I'm seriously considering the NTK as well. Mainly for vocals, but I would also be using it to mic a guitar cabinet (Fender Twin cranked) as well as a SM57. Is the volume of the amp going to hurt this mic? How good will it sound in this application? I will probably be close...

    Does anyone write christian based songs?

    Hey Dennis I've thought many times on that verse you brought up. In fact, I think it's interesting that although many times we as Christian musicians talk about using music in an evangelical fashion, I see no instance in scripture in which music was used this way. Music was used for corporate...

    Does anyone write christian based songs?

    my favorite scene Just wanted to add something, my favorite scene in the movie "The Apostle" is towards the end when the old man stands up with his trumpet and plays a song for the Church and directs it to God. He played horrible, sounded terrible, but I feel that that sound and his intentions...

    Does anyone write christian based songs?

    My two Cents.... I would just like to say that although I see a your line of thinking with the "music must reflect God in style" concept, I feel it's really contrary to how I believe Jesus would have us look at music. We know that God is concerned with the internal, not the external. He looks...

    Glass or Plexi for Window

    Studio design Why must every studio have a Futon? Just kidding.... That's really interesting, although probably more time consuming to build. What are you using for the door between the control room and studio? Is that just a solid core door with foam on it? I'm tackling that problem right now.

    Glass or Plexi for Window

    Angle? Do you angle them opposite each other like this \ / ? How much of an angle do you use? Doesn't that distort things visually?

    Glass or Plexi for Window

    I am putting a window between my Iso booth for amps and the control room. I'm wondering whether to use 2 quarter inch pieces of glass spaced apart or 1 half inch thick piece of plexiglass. The glass will cost a tad bit more, will be easier to clean, etc. The plexi I can drill into and maybe...

    That dang Door!!!

    I'm adding a second room onto my home studio and am putting cinderblock and sheetrock between the two rooms to isolate the recording booth (my old room) from the iso booth (the new room) where cranked amps will be. This should be adequate, only one problem, there is a door between the two rooms...

    Delta 1010 What do you think?

    Mic pre I'm eventually going to get tube mic pre's. So would the 1010 be the way to go? I'm using the Midiman Audio Buddy preamps right now. Are they about the same quality as those in the Q10 and Delta 1010?

    Delta 1010 What do you think?

    My Card... I have the Midiman DMan 2044 PCI Card (4 in 4 out breakout box). Yeah I am recording at 24 bit, but only playing back at 16 because Cakewalk won't play back at 24 with my card. It's a good card, I'm happy with it. The reason I ask is that it seems what it is missing is not more...

    Delta 1010 What do you think?

    I'm thinking of getting the M-Audio Delta 1010. Anyone have one? What do you think? Will it work with Windows 2000? I use 98 right now but am thinking of switching to 2000 to get more out of SONAR's WDM drivers. I have a 20 bit card right now. Will there be a big difference in quality?

    Tube in Mic or Preamp?

    Should I put my money into a good tube preamp with a Rode NT2 or non tube preamp with a tube mic like the Rode NT1000? Will I notice the difference? What will it be? And no matter what I buy should I try to upgrade the non-tube component to tube later? Is it redundant to have both be tube...

    Recording Bass tube pre or not?

    I am doing my first real project for someone else other than my band (and for free too I might add for experience). I will be recording their bass direct into my DMan 2044 Card with either an Audio Buddy preamp or dbx Tube pre with the 12AX7 in it. Would the tube make the bass muddy? Can I just...

    Does anyone write christian based songs?

    That's awesome I think that's really cool. We've had some somewhat similiar experiences. I think the key is exactly what you did about being yourselves. I've never seen the point in being a Christian band and writing lyrics so ambiguous that no one gets the message and then claiming to be...

    Thanks I appreciate your comments on the site. It was my first website design. I checked out yours as well, looks cool. I see you guys play some secular gigs too. Awesome. I will definitely check you guys out if God ever puts me in your neck of the woods. Have you had any trouble getting gigs...

    Guitar Amp Isolation Box

    Crank it I looked at the Randall. It looks cool but a little expensive for what it is to me. I think I could build something pretty cheap and do just as well. The one thing I did worry about was heat, I don't know how much to worry about that. Would 1 foot all around not be enough air to cool...

    Does anyone write christian based songs?

    Christian Blues Rock I have a Christian Power Trio in Southern California. We play about 1/2 secular and 1/2 Christian shows. My attitude is to just play wherever God opens up an opportunity. If people dig it cool, if not, fine. All you can do is do your thing. I wrestle all the time with...
