If I record a track at about -6 peak, the recorded result will be 15 db. lower. What am I doing wrong? Thanks

I don't see Roland interfaces mentioned much in forums such as this one or similar. I see that they have models including the Quad Capture, Octa-Capture, Studio Capture, and the Super UA USB, the latter having sold about zero units and being reviewed nowhere. I think it may have been aimed at...

Agreed, and that's what I want. I'm test-driving an original (but new) Babyface. I bought it for the converters and preamps I've heard so much about, not for anything else, and I don't need 16 channels. However, I'm not technically-inclined and I feel as if I've been given a maintenance...

...which brings me to this post: and the more I think of it, I'm not sure that I understand the difference between doubling and fattening. :(

Yes....... My understanding (such as it is ) is that if the listener can tell that you doubled it, you haven't done it right.

SOS has a list of methods. Besides the Real Thing, which do you prefer and use? Thanks. Double-tracking Vocals |

From ancient history: how to work a mic. She - with a degree in music, jazz vocals - knows that at the low end of her range, she can't project strongly, so she has to lean into the mic: at 22 seconds, 58 seconds, 2:00, and 2:35, she closes in on the mic, and then backs up when the melody suits...

I've been using a Presonus AudioBox. My understanding from rumour and innuendo is that to get a better interface - which basically means a better analog-to-digital converter - you have to go up to the RME Babyface or its competitors, for somewhere between $700 and $1000. That raises some...

I'm not with it enough to understand that. Could someone elaborate a little bit? Thank you. :confused:

Hit F2, which opens Edit View. There, the graduations are .1 decibel. Do it, then close = F2. I use Studio One 2.65.

I get glitches on tracks which are difficult to replicate or replace. Example: I had an acoustic guitar track which took 12,000 takes (+ or -) and on playback, it was indeed the best track - except for the bit where I lightly kicked the mic stand. Also, hand squeaks on the guitar neck are...

Yes, the tone is good at any volume. There are 4 tubes: POWER TUBES 2: MESA 6L6 GC STR 420, marked:28 MP GRY PRE AMP TUBES: 1: MESA 7025 STR 12AX7 & 1 Groove Tube AU7 Someone who saw a schematic for it said that there were originally two AU7 tubes in it, but someone must have...

It's a Garnet, made by the late Gar Gillies of Winnipeg, the guy who made the original amps which the Guess Who used (American Woman era.) This unit is smaller, 35 watts.

I have acquired this simple old amp, and I know nothing of the electronics. There is a small tube behind the 6L6 tube on the right; otherwise, what you see is about all there is. So, apart from the tubes themselves, what are those component thingies? Thank you.

Do I use an instrument cable (guitar cable) to go from the preamp to interface when recording guitar?

It's a ART Pro Audio Maybe this will help: Provides Superior Preamplification for: Microphones, Instruments and Line Level Sources Analog VU Meter OPL™ Output Protection Limiter Hand-Selected 12AX7A Vacuum Tube Variable Input and Output Gain Controls Provides over 60...

does it want a guitar cable or speaker cable or does it matter? (I haven't used an external preamp before.) Guitar>>preamp>>interface. Thank you.

I'm not satisfied with VST guitar stuff, and my tube amp is good, but too loud for home cranking, being 36 watts. There are some small amps around the 5 watt range, but I don't know if there are low wattage modelling amps. If anyone here is knowledgeable on this subject, please enlighten me...

It seems that Microsoft has made the decision FOR me, so to speak. The difference in price between Home Premium OEM and Professional when buying the components was about $60. To upgrade using so-called "Windows Anytime Upgrade" is $130. So much for that.

I've been very pleased with my PreSonus AudioBox 44VSL Interface, and it includes Studio One Artist DAW software. I just read the 44VSL reviews at zzounds.com, they are interesting.
