I use Vegas Video 3.0 here at the planetarium for doing our audio and our video. It definitely kicks butt. I've played around a bit on Premier and FCP and truly prefer Vegas. Heck, at home I still have Video Factory! :) -WayStar

Come to think of it, what is the maximum capacity of the approved scsi drives? My list of larger drives (downloaded on 12-09-2002) do not say OK for backup use. curiouser and curiouser... Waylena PS- even with these final bugs to work out, our operations are a lot smoother than the were using...

Skippy - thanks for the lowdown on the scsi issue, makes good sense. JR -thanks for the tip on external drives, I'll have to look again. Last time I checked was a few months ago, and I found that 40GB or higher was a bit more on the pricey side. I have a few $$ left on a grant for audio stuff...

Hi all! Question: Is it possible to transfer from one D2424 to another D2424 using SCSI as the SaveDevice? I don't have the cable to attempt it for sake of experiment, was hoping someone might already know the answer. In the manual, there are instructions for saving to an external or internal...

Hmm. Dunno about Ethernet. Out of curiosity (and unabashed ignorance), what is the Ethernet for? (remote operation, data transfer...) I am curious about your 80GB hard disk. What model of drive is it? (Should say during boot up.) What version of the firmware are you running on your D2424LV...

I've got the 2424LV here at work. Unfortunately, I'm not a very knowledgeable audio person, just a newbie learning her way around. Still, many of the folks here are quite knowledgeable with other units in the D series. Skippy, in particular, has saved my rear on a couple of occasions. (Thanks...

SUCCESS!! 2 things at work here. Last night, before leaving, I made some cables to go from the Fostex to the mixers. Not pretty, but they work. That boosted it quite a bit, and improved the clarity of the sound. This morning, I found your responses and decided to try changing the setting to...

Hi all- This is only marginally if at all a Fostex question, but any input is appreciated. :) I've got a Fostex D2424LV (two actually) and I am totally in love with them for recording or playback into my DAV via the optical cable. My problem is in the other room, where I run the recordings...

We've got two of these units ordered, so now the real fun will begin. :) I'll be capturing many old tapes to digital, and installing one of the units for playback in the planetarium, replacing our well-worn Otari MX5050 and 1/2" tapes. We'll be the first facility to use this unit with our...

Hi, all! I need to know what the real differences are between the D2424 and the D2424LV. I'm assuming that the LV has fewer features, but that might work for my purposes. It all depends on what those differences happen to be. I don't need much by way of mixing capabilities, since most of...

I suppose I count as the 4th female. But I'm not into recording from a music standpoint. I'm a planetarium show producer, so mostly I'm recording narration and using music from a library, since we can't afford to work with a composer. Back to researching digital multitrackers, Waylena

I'm in a bit of a fix and need to erase some older tapes to put newer stuff on. (Not touching any masters, not to fear.) I'll be upgrading to a digital multitrack recording and playback system in the somewhat near future (it's all spoken word), but in the meantime... I have a bulk tape eraser...

Re: Getting off topic, aren't we? Actually, I'm quite grateful for the primer on RAIDs. I'm about to take the plunge into setting up a DAW, so I need all of the related info I can find. This thread has been extremely helpful. Thanks! -Waylena

Hi, I'm currently looking for a reasonalby high-quality, low-cost, low-feature card. I don't need much by way of features because all I want to do with it is get spoken word into the computer for editing (I really like n-track, BTW). I've got a decent analog board for my mic to run through...
