I most probrably won't have such a big library. I'm only using reason and its factory patches.
Btw, my comp just died on me. It can't boot has emits a high pitched frequency. Suspecting that the RAM failed. Any opinions?
I got a WD 7200rpm 8mb, 186gb HD.
I'm going to format it, what should i do if i would need partitions? Or can i put all my samples, libraries and unfinished audio on one entire drive?
My OS is a 74.5gb NTFS already, and i'm going to have my system files, OS, Reason, Cubase LE, Guitar Pro 4...
There should be, but i'm not experienced enough to tell you.
Of course, marshall + gibson is a killer combo, but its up to individual artists to decide their own sound. I've seen fenders with marshall and they still get a great tone.
does the firebox work well? Connections, pops, latency.
The tech support at presonus stated that s400 connections only, no combo cards, VIA or TI chipset. I got a VIA combo with USB, and i hope my box can run when i get it.
The Studio Projects B1 is around 100+, and the C1 is around 200 i think.
You also could try the Rode Nt1, those 3 are great condensors.
Edit : I just saw the mackie post. Does it have phantom power? (assuming its a mixer or AI).
that's sufficient then. I won't be recording drums, and the firebox has max 4 inputs.
Thanks.
Apart from that Cubase LE is pretty good for anything else right?
I just got my DAW, turned it on, and registered windows. What do i do next? I haven't got my AI yet, so i'm planning to DL sequencer demos and reason on my net comp and transfer em to my DAW.
Any thing i need to do next? (change BIOS, disable stuff).
Also, my 2nd HD isn't formatted, how do i...
If you're recording drums, you're going to have to spend alot. Firstly, laptops might not be strong enough to do a full band. Those 3 thousand dollar 32 bus mixers should be a little expensive right now, perhaps you should consider getting a firepod or RME Fireface if you could afford it...
So now i'd have to get 2 condensors? the B1 for acoustic and C1 for vox?
Can the B1 do all my vox too until i upgrade? I was planning to use Sm57 for vox as well till i get my condensor, but now, i'm convinced to get a condensor along with my dynamic.
I've checked, i will be able to get both...
I was set on getting the box when i've seen a few threads complaining about the latency, hiss, pops, mic pres and the overall build of this box.
I'd be recording my demo with this one, a Sm57 --> guitar cab, and bass DI in the instrument pres.
So far, i feel that its great, but i want...
Entry level guy here, as some of you know.
I'd be getting LE with the Presonus firebox. I'd be recording guitars, acoustic and vox, bass DI, VST other instruments in reason. I'd handle my drums in reason. I know that LE doesn't have a drum map, does reason solve this problem?
Most of my...
Alright, i'm entry level, new to recording, but experienced (somewhat) in music.
I'm getting a new DAW, a firebox and an SM57.
I'd be recording Guitar electric/acoustic, and vox mainly, using DI bass.
I know the SM57 can handle everything, even vocals, but will it be better if i got a con...
What instruments do you record? do you do vox?
First advice is to get a better soundcard.
I'm also new and with a 250$ budget its not really enough to get that. My starting budget is 1000 American, and will upgrade asap. My total final cost is estimated to be 2.5k american.
Sorry for the intensity, but i was prepared to buy the entire setup on that day, and had to get the price quotes, so i needed to know whether this was suitable for me.
