I've been trying to research what the function of an AD/DA converter is but can't seem to figure it out. If anyone can help me out with this, I'd greatly appreciate it! -Steve

sooo, I was thinking that it's about time to re-tube my Peavey Valveking. I figured, pretty cheap amp, must have pretty cheap tubes too. So I was thinkin about this combo: Groove Tube GT-ECC83-S Preamp Tubes and... Tungsol 5881 Matched Power Tubes, Hard I play in a deathcore band and...

ohhhh okay. and I'm not sure, I'm running currently through a Presonus Firepod 10x10, and I wanted to connect it to some pro tools interface eventually. I saw that the only interface with an ADAT input was the (very expensive) digirack. But then I saw the M-box had an S/PDIF input and I saw...

I understand ADAT, but then I realized that my interface doesn't have a digital out. So I came across the "S/PDIF" output, and I was wondering what exactly that does? Does it do relatively the same thing or something completely different?

I'm sorry, I'm confused. I mean that I want to use an analog mixer for multi-track recording (probably 10 inputs at one time), and this is because I want to use Pro Tools. So I was wondering how I could still have seperate tracks on Pro Tools for each channel on the mixer?

Hey, I'm Steve, I'm quite new to recording. I just found out that I guess I need an A/D Converter to convert my mixer to my computer and be able to seperate the tracks instead of having 1 stereo track or whatever. I was wondering how an A/D Converter works so I can understand it before I spend...

My friend offered to build me a guitar if I bought the parts for it. I'm having a hard time deciding what types of wood I should get for the body/neck/fingerboard. It's going to be a seven string guitar, and I play in a deathcore band. The guitar will have 1 EMG 81-7 in it and I'd prefer...

I'm trying to improve my guitar sound, and I discovered the Nady RSM-4 and saw that it had great reviews. I was wondering if it would sound good if I combined the RSM-4 and my SM57 on my amp? (yes, my amp sounds good too).

So I own a firepod and I plug 7 drum mics into it (AKG D112, SM57, 2 e604's, Audix F12, and 2 Audix F15's) and record with Cubase LE. I play with the mixer set to "input" and it sounds good. but then when I play it in the "playback" setting it sounds completely different, compressed, a lot...

I'm currently looking to buy a new cabinet for recording, and are angled or straight cabs better for recording, or does it really make no difference at all?

okay, so I know that the only preamps I've seen like the firepod only have up to 8 inputs... but I'm trying to record drums with 12 inputs, and I need to record more at the same time, but I don't want to use a mixer because I want to have seperate tracks on my DAW. Is there anything out there...

oh, well ya I know I need more than one, I was just stating I need to find a particular kind that wouldn't need adhesive or nails or anything. and thanks for showing me that one on the stand that really helps! THanks!

So I'm looking to buy a bass trap, but I have a problem. I have isulated walls, but the outer (actual wall) part is this soft, almost fabric-like material, so I can't glue or nail anything to these walls :( So is there any form of a bass trap where it could be free standing, without having to...

oh alright, thanks mixsit!

thank you very much for the feedback, but I have a mac and that says its only compatible with windows

there will be a delay and it will get extremely annoying, trust me, you'd rather save up the money to get a trigger module.

I'm currently looking to purchase a compressor for my studio and I just wanted some advice before I started buying. Within a reasonable price range (nothing over a few hundred dollars or so), whats the best compressor that you know of on the market?

This is something that I've always wondered. besides the obvious things like number of speakers, is there any other major differences between half stacks and combo amps? I know its probably a stupid question but I've always been curious. Also while I'm on the subject, would a Vox Classic Plus...

hey, thanks for all the feedback! I understand what drum replacement software is, but what do you mean by "blending a kick sample"?

This is just a song I threw together in about an hour. Mixed it for a couple hours, let me know what you think, and what i could change! My Gear: Logic 8 Software Izotope Ozone 4 Mastering Software Presonus Firepod AKG D112 (kick) Audix F12 (snare) SM57 (guitar amp miking) Sennheiser e604s...
