    Ibanez tube screamer direct to sound card

    interesting. some mixed reviews so to speak. actually, mine is one of the really old ones and it sounds great. I have tried several ideas so far, and I do appreciate the feedback from you guys. where to begin...... I just started to familiarize myself with cubase sx3. pretty easy so far, but...

    Ibanez tube screamer direct to sound card

    I apologize if this is in the wrong place. I am using cubasesx3, or trying to :) can I come right out of my tube screamer into the RCA input(s) of an audiophile2496? thanks for any feedback. cheers! Bill

    Just bought a 414 Porta, have a few questions..

    famous beagle, that is a very impressive demo. thanks for the link. after searching for a 414 porta cassette recorder, I see that I can not find one. maybe I am confused. I will search again. it seems that the only 4 track tascam products available are the small digital portastudio for $199.99...

    Just bought a 414 Porta, have a few questions..

    howdy streetchant and famous beagle! I wanted to ask you 2 guys a quick question if you don't mind. are you able to get a pretty good sound with the 4 track cassette recorder? I don't see why not. I'm just curious. I am so so far behind the curve on the digital stuff, especially all the...

    and again, much thanks altitude! thanks. I will look for used copies of those. perhaps on ebay, or maybe amazon. indeed. my whole operation is in tatters. alas, when lack of ready cash becomes an issue, which it is, there's always plastic. I have shopped for a new PC that comes with XP so...

    Thanks Much Kerose! I have been bouncing around with this stuff for what seems like eternity. I think I'm ready to go ahead and download Reaper. your recommendation is the most recent I have seen, and it also "speaks to me" in a personal sort of way. I do like simple. simple is good! I...

    MIDI Only Anyone?

    oh, I forgot. there is no midi input and no serial input. why would I buy such a computer one may well ask? just for bills and surfing the information traffic jam. and I wanted something that came with XP and not Vista. the idea of using it as a DAW was an afterthought, as it IS new and all...

    MIDI Only Anyone?

    Thanks much Tim and gecko! http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883109030 that's the beastie there. apparently, or allegedly, it is not so much the speed of the cpu in relation to recording per se as it is the guts and oomph of said cpu in relation to using a USB audio...

    MIDI Only Anyone?

    Hi all. I recently found out from some nice folks here and on the reaper forum that my cpu is likely not powerful enough for digital audio. it's one of those 'atom' things in a small net top. anyway, surely I can record a bunch of midi tracks and have them on standby for the 'someday' nice...

    Best Recording Software For A Noob

    I just found this link on another thread. it's very cool. I am going to assume (hopefully not erroneously) that all the major DAW software these days is more or less the same in terms of audio interface needs. like, if the thing is ok for cubase and sonar, it'll probably be cool for Reaper and...

    thanks 2Kickdrums and obsidian3d! I never liked cubase either. mostly because I don't 'get it' but I have friends who do all kinds of cool stuff with it. I downloaded T4Riffworks and need an audio interface for it. like a USB soundcard basically. something with ASIO drivers. am looking...

    sonny, I'm back!...more dumb questions :rolleyes: what's a good budget priced usb audio interface for riffworks? I just now downloaded it after all this time. am procrastinating my life away. man, I need to get a grip. anyway, riffworks looks very cool. I need an audio interface and there are...

    Suggestion on Forum Name Change

    yours was a good post anyway! even if the first post in the thread is from the dead sea scrolls :D I agree with you. anyone who uses audition knows where it came from and will easily find audition topics in this forum. cool edit die hards, like, well like me if I still had it, STILL look for...

    sounds like a plan! all good info. thanks! also good info. yeah, they are all up to snuff in terms of sound quality. riffworks T4 sounds good. I'll do it. it's free for that version if I read it right. for a good while, 4 tracks may just suffice. do you play your own bass tracks or use synth...

    I am a guitar guy sonny. never heard of Riffworks but will check it out. can you tell me what it is about Rifftracks that makes it cool for guitar players? I guess I can check into it myself. anyway, in spite of being a guitar player, I want to do music that is beat oriented. actually, the...
