an insert puts both an unbalanced output and input on the same TRS plug. so, for example, you could put a compressor on a channel before it went through the EQ section of the mixer. but if you only push in a plug part way, it does not break the original signal path, and it acts as an unbalanced...

Not knowing much about this kind of stuff, and without much research, a friend of mine put up some money for a Deura P.A. He asked for my opinion on it, but I'd never heard of them. Has anyone?

if you say where you are, maybe someone knows of a place in your area, or lives ten blocks away and has a suitcase full of neumanns.

mkwAct is a good .SHN utility to convert the files. http://www.etree.org/mkw.html .... i think someone also made a Winamp plugin so it could play them. but i've never used it. correct, you would have to convert them before you burned a CD. in fact, you would probably have to convert them to WAV...

SHN is big with concert tapers. it works, but it's kind of annoying (for me, at least) going through so many conversions. i'm content with 256kbps MP3s. but if you plan to burn the files to CD, SHN is a good way to keep up your sound quality. i'm reading on that link you posted that a "seek"...

see my posts on this thread, i think i explained it, but if you have more specific questions i could try to rephrase myself or expand on what i said. It doesn't. it would only effect how the vocals combine with other signals. [/B] Yes

just because there is more than one mic in the room does not *necessarily* mean you'll have phase problems. even if you do, they can often be fixed by mic placement instead of flipping polarity. it's not just an issue of IN phase and OUT of phase ... you can be anywhere in between as well. this...

an audio signal is represented electrically with a voltage difference between two conductors. if you reverse the polarity -- swap which conductor is positive and which is negative -- the measured voltage is essentially multiplied by -1. If you think about it as a sine wave on a graph, the whole...

well, Shure makes one: http://www.shure.com/accessories/a15prs.asp?PN=Problem%20Solvers but that's expensive! you could make your own for probably $10 max. or if you're recording to digital, you could just flip the polarity of the track after it's recorded.

assuming this is a balanced xlr mic, you would need a cable, adaptor, or feature on a mixer/preamp/etc. that reverses the connections to pins 2 and 3 on the xlr connector.

the volume that you record at has very little bearing on the level that you mix it at. you can always lower the volume in mixing, but usually the most important thing is to get a nice strong signal going into your first A-D conversion (but avoiding clipping, obviously), so you have good bit...

You probably just mistyped this .... you can send a signal from an outboard preamp into any line-level input (1/4" on your mackie).

best bit depth explanation ever

yes, the audigy will be able to do the same kind of basic input/output as the audiophile. but m-audio's A/D converters seem to be better regarded than creative's. (and exactly what "great game features" do you mean? sounds like marketing to me) If you're really struck by a built-in surround...

OR you could have a lot of fun with the analog stuff. i wish just once i could happen across a bunch of equipment like that! in my opinion, you'll get a much better feel for what you're doing if you jump right in and make mistakes with what you've got. an audiophile will do you well ... if you...

that's West Penn, not west pin

i'm actually from new jersey, i just go to school up here there is a difference between being able to record 8 channels at a time and being able to record 8 sources at a time *independently*, which is also different from being able to mix 8 independent tracks together. to explain: With a...

the audiophile is not 4/4, unless you can make use of the SPDIF. it only has 2 analog ins and outs. the only thing you're missing from your list are preamps, which would be included if you bought a mixer. sm57s can be used for almost anything. but condensors are usually the mics of choice for...

a metronome. if there are any pauses in the song you will be very grateful you played to a click.
