    Mixing With Real Faders on PC ?

    Warning: I'm a total newbie to PC recording. But, I've been doing some research on how to put together my PC recording rig to include mixing with real faders. I know that there are many different ways to achieve this, but it's all very confusing to me. I'm hoping some of you who mix on PC...

    Question for recording drummers.

    great suggestions... Thanks a lot for the tips. I appreciate it. Never thought about leaving space at the beginning of the track. Doh! Couldn't really do that in analog land. This is gonna be fun!

    Question for recording drummers.

    cool... ...thought there must be some kinda remote. On the other hand, I could use the excercise of running across the room ;-)

    Question for recording drummers.

    This one is for you drummers who engineer for yourselves. The only recording I've done of my drums at home is with a portastudio which I move right beside my kit when recording. How do you guys manage start/stop of the recording etc...when recording to a larger unit or PC that might be across...

    Proximity of PC to speakers, amps, etc?

    well, that's a RELIEF! Guess I've really shown my lack of knowledge with this thread, huh? Thanks so much for hanging in there with me, Derek. All of this is totally new to me! Most of this equipment will not be used simultaneously, anyway. For example, I doubt the PA will even be on when I...

    Proximity of PC to speakers, amps, etc?

    i guess this is gonna be tricky... I was hoping I could line the interior of the armoire with something relatively inexpensive that would do the trick. As I have the room laid out now, all the amps, PA etc...are to the right side of the computer armoire, but one of the PA speakers (or a...

    Proximity of PC to speakers, amps, etc?

    grounded shielding?? Thanks for the response, Derek. Sorry to follow up with more questions, but ;-) What would I use as grounded shielding? Is there something I could line the walls of the armoire (that's housing the PC) with?? If I can't do that, how close is too close to cause damage? I'm...

    Proximity of PC to speakers, amps, etc?

    OK, I'm taking the plunge and adding a computer to my home studio/jam room! So, here's my VERY IMPORTANT question: My room is fairly small and I am trying to integrate an armoire that will house the PC into an area with guitar amps, and large PA speakers. I'm concerned that there may be issues...

    still LOVE my 4-track!

    Thank you! Hey, Reel Person! I sincerely appreciate you taking time to check out my music and for your kind words and suggestions. I used the standard 414. No preamps, and just a pair of SM58's. I guess that's just about as bare bones as you can get. But I'm honestly very proud of the album...

    Non-powered speakers to PC?

    all points taken I will definitely be getting adequate monitor speakers as soon as the budget allows. Just hoping to cut a few corners while i'm getting the system in place. Thanks to everybody for the input.I'm also open to suggestions for a decent entry level set of monitors that can be...

    still LOVE my 4-track!

    YOU'RE KILLING ME ! Actually, this whole decision is killing me, but the bottom line is, I have a budget of approximately $1700, and i HAVE to buy a computer, because I can no longer share my roommate's PC... There goes half of my budget for the computer itself, so unless I want to continue...

    Is Roland StudioPack Pro a good choice?

    thanks jhira001... ...i appreciate you taking time to respond. Can't seem to find very many folks with experience with this system, which might be an indication of something...??? Too many options...TOO MANY OPTIONS!! Think I'll just go write a song and record it on my portastudio for a...

    US-428 Hey everybody, I'm gonna jump into this post, because I'm a new to digital recording and trying to find a controller with real faders to incorporate into my as-yet-to-be-assembled recording set up. I've been investigating the Tascam interfaces, as well as the Roland Studio Pack Pro, but...

    still LOVE my 4-track!

    In a perfect world... ...music would have never gone digital at all. We're all forced in one way or another to "go digital" just by virtue of putting our music out on CD or creating mp3's for the web. Sad but true. It's the only reasonable solution for me given the number of songs and...

    Roland Studio Pack Pro??

    Does anybody here use this system or have experience with it? Thought I'd try this forum too, since it's a Roland product. I need 8 simultaneous ins, and a mixing interface with real faders. I'm new to PC recording and trying to put together my first set-up. Looking for something similar to...

    Is Roland StudioPack Pro a good choice?

    I've been doing a lot of research trying to decide how to set up my PC-based studio (for less than $2000 including the price of a new computer.) The primary features I need are at least 8 simultaneous ins for recording drums and/or with a live band. And I want to be able to mix using real...

    Yo' Manning1.............

    Manning's Mixes... ...maybe it's possible that Manning was simply going after something different with his sound?? Not everybody wants to sound like everybody else. In reading some of his posts, he states that he admires "older" production techniques/sounds, even mentioning "Secret Agent Man"...
