    Looking For Your Experience With Digital Multitrack/ Field Recorder(s)

    Hey again. At the low end you're already there. In the middle there's Sound Devices (which I use). Extremely high quality, pricey. And then there's Zaxcom. OMFG. Sound Devices tops off at the 788T-SSD 8-Channel Portable Solid-State Audio Recorder, Zaxcom comes in just below that with the Nomad...

    What mixing board is best for the money

    I was going to suggest looking into the Midas VeniceF but I see from the press release that Berhinger is using the pres from that line so it's looking like the X32 is getting increasingly awesome.

    What Non-Computer Equipment Do I Need For Recording & Mixing?

    Dr. V., I've been submersed in computers since 1975 as a programmer, bench tech, system builder, help desk, administrator, security guru, et. al. over Novell implementations, WinNT implementations, nationwide IBM AS/400 implementations, etc. etc. and nobody is more dichotomous in their...

    Newbie for keyboard recording

    Oh don't feel too bad. We're you Enron or Disney nobody would blink an eye. I worked for Nestle for several years and they pirated like crazy as a corporate policy. Just become wealthy through your music and all will be forgiven. According to...

    If you are running an external video and have access to integrated video or a spare I'd start there. Then I'd pop the 2496 into a different slot.

    Newbie for keyboard recording

    Raze, I'm not the best resource, and I'm a little confused, but is the Yamaha outputting audio or just being used to trigger MIDI samples?

    Shure sm7b questions

    No. It won't. Well... not as much as you are hoping. Everything adds noise to the signal chain, including the mic, but nothing adds as much noise as your environment. Noise is not cumulative... if your mic is a relatively noisy mic (as the SM7B is) you'll never notice if your room is even...

    Shure sm7b questions

I've never done this (maybe I'll try!) but it's my understanding that you can receive an audio signal by running your speakers (a dynamic mic is essentially a very small speaker) into a pre. Only condenser...

    Shure sm7b questions

    From personal experience and from what others have said the SM7B is an extremely solid choice. A dynamic mic, it does not use phantom power but it does want a solid preamp and I'm not aware of any hard and fast rule of thumb on how to tell if any particular pre is suitable. I use mine with a...

    Question about usb interfaces and analog to digital converters

    +1 If you were a manufacturer would you make a product that can't be used by 70% of your customers? It's a brave new laptop and tablet world.
