I´v been trying very hard to find a free, or at least cheap, room simulator plugin, that I can use as a insert on the master bus, connecting all my tracks to a virtual space, where I can move around the tracks (as sound sources) anyway I want, much like the stage positioning feature...

    Quality Loss,of signal when working with hardware fX

    20 bit, 18 bit??? Thanks for the answers,, actually I discovered that I´ve been recording in 24 bits, but that the soundcard has 20-bit D/A and 18-bit A/D converters, is it necessary to record in 24 bits? Will there be any benefits eventhough the converters don´t match that bit depth?? As I´m...

    Hi, I´m building a studio based on a Tascam 388 1/4 reel to reel and PC with INCA 88 8 in/out soundcard with Cubase. As I´m kind of used to the 3 band fully sweepable parametric equalizers on the Tascam 388, I´m looking for their "digital twin!!" in the vst plugin world, for the reason that I´m...

    Hi there. I´m kind of new to Cubase, been working mostly in making waves since 1998. It seems to me that cubase makes everything sound a little brigther than making waves. I think I´ve read somewhere that Cubase adds it´s own touch to the sound, is this true? Is there a difference in sound...

    TASCAM 388_Is this possible

    Hi there, trying to figure out a way to pingpong tracks with effects. I think that I´ve understanded that there is impossible to do so with the usual ping-pong method, as the effects is AFTER the track faders in the signal chain. I know that a great way would be to mix down (up to 8) tracks...
