    kidkage's PC build thread (read: kidkage's request for PC build help thread)

    Even as someone who uses eBay quite a bit, I still feel hesitant about looking for a computer on there.

    kidkage's PC build thread (read: kidkage's request for PC build help thread)

    Thanks for the help d00ds! The receipt is awesome jimmy! I'm gonna start making a list of necessary components now and start trying to fill in the blanks. I haven't even mentally sketched out a build really. Do you guys know of anything inherently wrong with the barebones kits sold on sites...

    kidkage's PC build thread (read: kidkage's request for PC build help thread)

    [There's a TL;DR version at the bottom underneath the ______] A few years ago I cannibalized the off the shelf HP desktop I had. It was a nightmare process for me. I was limited to using AMD processors, the PSU was crappy, and the machine kept hitting me with the BSOD every time I opened...

    Drum recording for youtube covers

    I was honestly expecting to hear worse than I did when I clicked your link with the way you typed :D You're not sounding terrible at all. Way better than my first experience with recording drums. I'd try to make everything fit with the foundation laid by your kick drum sound. I recommend...

    Wood laminate flooring?

    I switched from carpet to laminate flooring a few years ago - it changed everything for the better! I remember gathering opinions here at the time, and if I'm not mistaken, I think John Brandt told me that cement, wood, and laminate aren't too dissimilar.

    So how important is the equilateral triangle?

    6'?!! yikes lol Yeah, I probably will just pull my table back a bit. Hopefully that won't make me have to reposition my side panels with the mirror test.

    So how important is the equilateral triangle?

    It isn't perfect, but I'm trying to get it as close to perfection as I can. Got the monitors centered in the room, proper stands, and treatment - all of which I didn't have before lol. I know home studio environments will always have some sort of issue that a person will just have to learn so...

    So how important is the equilateral triangle?

    My mixcube is dead center in the room. My Focals are equal distance from it and the side walls... But there's 40 inches tweeter to tweeter, and 36 inches from each tweeter to my ears :( Should I: A.) Do some repositioning of the monitors to get them 36 inches from each other at the risk of no...

    Native Instruments Komplete 10

    After I thought it over - I fell out of love with the keyboards. Maybe one day if I've got some disposable cash I might get one or something, but right now, I just don't find them appealing. I did get a copy of Komplete Kontrol software to use with K9U from NI a week or two ago and I'm in...

    Super cheap AI? Any one?

    A bit late for this I guess, but this seems to be the most bang for the buck interface on the market: Behringer U-Phoria UM2 | Sweetwater.com

    Equipment Advice Please!

    The Native Instruments Komplete Audio 6 is my favorite interface under $500. Komplete : Audio Interfaces : Komplete Audio 6 | Products The Steinberg UR44 is a close second with more inputs and outputs. If I had $500 to spend on a mic I'd buy a Violet Design Wedge: Violet Design The Wedge...

    Interface/sequencer package - recommendations?

    This is true. He did say "like Cubase" though, so I don't think he's too picky; He probably just wants any sequencer capable of doing stuff. The MIDI thing is something to consider if you have MIDI hardware, pash. The majority of MIDI controllers nowadays go MIDI over USB, so it might not be...

    Interface/sequencer package - recommendations?

    Compressor built into the DAW or built into the interface? I don't know about any interfaces with compressors built in, but all DAWs have them. The Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 is the best budget interface in my opinion. It's got two inputs with quality preamps in case you ever have a need to do...

    Digital vs. Analog

    Yeah, I don't think that there can be any objective evidence that hardware or software is better than the other. I've heard the phrase "Gear is like religion" before and that's true. In the same way that I wouldn't argue religion with anyone because it's a personal thing, I also wouldn't argue...

    Native Instruments Komplete 10

    I went from Maschine to K8U for $500, the from K8U to K9U for the same. I don't think I'll be going to K10U. Even if I wanted to... Stupid retina Macbooks and their limited storage. The new keyboards look cool though!

    Digital vs. Analog

    Don't mention it :thumbs up: Also, I don't think the other guys meant anything personal by it. Sometimes it gets tiring to answer the same question(s). We used to get a lot of "analog vs. digital" threads around here that always seemed to end with someone either getting banned, or leaving the...

    Digital vs. Analog

    Yikes. I see you're kind of new here, and it has been a really long time since I've been a regular here, so maybe things have changed; but usually if an OP of a thread in the newbies section is new they don't have to worry about being attacked here. We've all not understood things that seem...
