    Help Recording DI Distorted Guitar Tones

    People often don't realize that the way most DI's are wired, the thru jack provides absolutely no protection from impedance loading and tone suck and is often the reason "wow bro, this DI is so warm man!" because its completely barfed out the actual sound of the pickup, and there's no need to...

    Help Recording DI Distorted Guitar Tones

    This sounds about what I'd expect, lots more highs than you would normally get on a cab recording except in the most pristine conditions (which is how these IRs are often made). POSSIBLY some intonation stuff going on, but really, with a low pass or a different impulse, I would have ZERO trouble...

    Why are Macs "better" for recording/mixing?

    I could list the reasons why nobody should ever buy a mac if they are interested in anything beyond garage band, but Microsoft is showing in no uncertain terms that they are about to put the worst of apple into windows 11. I just got my first mac for compatibility testing. There's some good...

    Just realize that if your computer was made after 2010, its about forty trillion times more powerful than the systems I mixed hundreds of albums on

    Reaper DAW, will it deliver all the "goods" in multi track recording?

    And usually not even then, but you can certainly always make it worse

    My name is Judy Kaszas

    People like to make acoustic guitar and ukulele pickups out of these. Pretty much every uke in Kalihi was using this until the cheap electrics came out

    Alternative to UAD Apollo

    You need to define what you mean by "better". To me, drivers are the primary determination of quality for an interface, as someone who actually tests apples to apples with real measurments, all of the major driver families, most of the USB devices out there, including Audient and SSL use the...

    Alternative to UAD Apollo

    In what way do you think the Apollo would be an upgrade from the Focusrite?

    Tell me about the new Mac M1 processor

    The worst i3 you could buy today would run circles around the type of computers we used to record and mix at low latencies with piles of plugins not so long ago.

    Do different plugins sound different?

    This video tells a lot about EQ types, including fab filter. His videos on compression are "must watch" to me. YouTube

    Do different plugins sound different?

    I wouldn't go toooooooo far with the first half of that. You can null an awful lot of these, but the second half can make things quicker, easier, more likely to get the results you want

    ADC converter to Audio interface makes noise crackle

    Could be the buffer size, but it also could very well be clocks. Can you set the outboard converter to chase the FCA610 somehow? Not sure if you can have your ADC chase the spdif out of the FCA as it looks like you are using that for something else. Honestly it looks like that set of converters...

    Connecting Outboard Device Issue

    Wait, he can most certainly use a hardware compressor as an insert if he has enough channels on his interface. Its so commin in REAPER there's a function called 'ReaInsert" for it. I'm sure there is similar in cubase. No he cant control it fro mthe DAW, but it should certainly be available to...

    Search some videos of Vern Graner who does the sounds for some very popular podcasts and youtube shows. He does INCREDIBLE work with 2020's theres one where the guest speakers mic had to do double duty as an acoustic guitar mic, it was insane, especially when it went off axis and still sounded...

    Time to retire my EMU 1616m? (and: Motu M4 vs Ultralite Mk3)

    One of my rooms is still running 48 channels of 1999 MOTU 2408 MK II interfaces. So, never say never :)
