I've been reading up on the EMX-1 - it sounds pretty good, I might see if I can find one at a reasonable price. As it stands though, they seem to be about £400 new, which is what my iBook cost (second hand) so the financial risk of gigging either would be about the same. Thanks once again for...

Thanks ssscientist - that's some great info! junplugged, why do you say I need a sampler with a sequencer? In fact, what would I use a sampler for in this situation? The other idea I had would be to use Reason to create my accompaniment, and take my iBook to gigs. Of course the down side of...

Hi guys, I really need your help, I'm at the end of my tether! I'm basically a guitarist/bassist/songwriter who plays a bit of keyboards. I'm looking to buy an all in one unit that I can use to produce drums, synths and basses on to complement my acoustic gigs. So far so simple! I got an...

Hi all. I just moved house and I've set my studio up again exactly how it was. Strangely, now I have an intermittent "beep" whenever I play or record audio (in any application - winamp,WMP, Cubase etc). Any ideas? My setup is; AMD64 processor Cubase SX2 Seasound Solo I thought it might be...

Thanks dude, I'll look into that!

Thanks for your response - much appreciated! I've bought a perfect-condition MC505, boxed with all leads and manuals, from the SOS classifieds for £175. I figured at that price if it doesn't suit my needs I can probably sell it on eBay for twice that and get the RM1x instead. I didn't know...

Ideally I want it all to be in one box, or at most a couple of very compatible boxes like the Electribe series. I don't have a decent synth, or a sampler, so if it was all in one place that would be ideal.

Hi all, I'm thinking about expanding my studio with a sequencer of some kind. Now, I'm a guitarist/bassist/singer by trade but I'm pretty good with gadgets and new technology. I'm looking for something to make loops and beats and whole songs so that if necessary I could use it live. My only...

Hi all, I'm about to buy a new high-end PC for recording, but I also use the machine for webdev, surfing, email etc. What are the advantages of dual-booting XP, one for DAW and one for normal apps? Is it really necessary if you have sufficient processing power/ram/HDD speed?

Thanks David.

BBE Sonic Maximizer. Tis the bomb-diggy.

Hi there, Does anyone have any recommendations for places that do good value, good quality audio CD duplication and sleeve printing? I'm based in the UK but if it's significantly cheaper in the US (which is usually is) I don't have a problem going for an American firm. I'll be looking at a run...

Thanks fella. I'm pretty sure this is a bona-fide, shop-bought boxed version which the guy is selling simply because he doesn't use it anymore, so it's all above board.

Thanks dude, that's all good advice.

Have any of you had any good or bad experiences with buying second hand software? I've got my eye on buying a second hand copy of BBE's Sonic Maximizer software, but if the previous owner has installed it (which they have) what's the deal legally with me installing it on my machine? I'm just...

One more thing - should I use balanced or unbalanced cable? I'm still not really any closer to finding cables that I'm confident will do the job.

So basically any quality cable will do? That's cool, just had to check. Thanks a lot.

Hi all, I've just bought a pair of Alesis M1 active monitors, what cable should I use to connect them to the monitor outs of my seasound solo? Will any 1/4" jack to 1/4" jack cable do or is there any better way? If so, could you recommend a supplier for the optimum type of lead/cable? Thanks!

You resurrected an 8 year old thread for that?

Thanks for your comments, chap. Of course it's a pretty trite song all round really but there you go. The synth is actually a Novation V-Station, beautiful bit of software that. My setup is pretty basic as you rightly noticed - SPB1 into a Behringer Composer Pro XL->Seasound Solo, Cubase SX2 on...
