So far the my sound is pretty decent. I've had to work like rip on mic placement and amp settings. However, my room is not too sound friendly. If I stay with the current setup, I will definately need better pre's than what Behringer has to offer. I just thought while I'm ditching the mixer I...
Hey guys, I'm still fairly new to home recording but I do know I'm ready for a better quality of sound. Right now I run Cubase VST 5 & Sonar 5; however, I've got a fairly crappy Emu 0404 card and I'm using a Behringer 1202 Eurotrack mixer. With the pre's on the mixer, I'm barely able to...
That could very well be the problem. I checked my setup and have no "emulated". See if you can click off of emulated in your settings but make sure you can go back to it if you need to.
Maiden, If you bought your tascam new, the manual will show you how to bounce tracks. If used and no manual, go to the tascam website to see if they have a manual to download. My advice is go with software like Sonar or Cubase. You can record tracks without having to bounce them. You can...
Slinky, Your recording program gives you several choices for output. You have to select your card as the output source. For some unknown reason, your system will default to your system's output source rather than the card. I run Cubase and Sonar and my Cubase keeps defaulting output to my...
Although the room size does have something to do with your overall sound, you can work with the mics to get the optimal sound out of what you have to work with. You are going to have to put in some nerve-wracking time to find the "sweetspot" for each phase of your drum set. Try this.....

Tragik, I had the same problems recording our drummer. We found the answer is to mic the snare and hi-hats with one mic (SM57), one sm57 between the 10 & 12, one sm57 between the 14 & floor tom, one inside the bass drum and two over heads to cover the crashes and ride. You'll need to back...
Point taken on the shipping. I probably have around $400 tied up in shipping, but you still have to agree the list is pretty impressive at under $2,400
Can't beat my setup for the price.
- Emu 0404 sound card ($48 new off Ebay)
- Behringer UB1202 Euro (built in preamps for 4 mic's) ($41 off Ebay)
- Sonar 5 Producers addition ($105 fully licensed & registered off Ebay)
- 4 shure SM57's (NEW for $50 each off Ebay)
- 1 Shure SM58 (New for...
Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Everyone, if you agree with the following, please do not post. Let this thread die so we can go on the better things.
Stealing: BAD!
Not Stealing: GOOD!
The End (I hope, I hope, I hope, I hope, I hope)
Well Thanks Alot! I've got a whole fleet of 57's and now that I've heard your clip with the i5 I'm wondering if I have the right mic. Killer guitar btw!
I finally contacted Steinberg Support and told them just how unhappy I was that they no longer offered the MP3 patch for VST5. I got an email a couple of days later with the patch file attached and a "Best Wishes". AWESOME!
I don't think we should have to put up with pirates either. BUT, it seems that everyone who posts a problem on this forum is an automatic PIRATE. Maybe the forum administrators should make it a requirement before you post that you provide proof of purchase along with a certifide letter from...
Everyone, Newbies & Pros alike, will agree that our software is not for the faint of heart. There are going to be times you will be convinced you got a bum piece of software and there's no help available. Many of the times the answer is very simple and right in front of your face. The best...
Gotta tell ya Limmerik, Pirating the program and coming on this board is not the wisest thing you'll ever do. You're not going to get any help here. But, here's some good advice. Go out and purchase the program; its really good stuff. Then read the manual and it will get you up and going...
Right click on Start. Click Explore. Click on Program files. Click on Steinberg. Click on SX3, you'll see the folder "VST Plugins". Drag your plugin to that folder and you're set.
Come on guys. Sometimes reading a manual is not the solution. I've read my VST5 manual twice (all 360 pages) and some problems are still very confusing and we newbies need to fall back on the advice of you guys who have been around the block. It's not that most of us are lazy or have...
