Yes, I use the spdif out to record from Gigastudio into Sonar (using spdif in on a Seasound Solo interface). The clock works fine - I have no problems doing this.

I am running a three year old system (an Athlon XP 2200 with 1 GB Ram). I have been able to run projects with several Midi tracks triggering Giga instruments along with 20+ audio tracks, however when I start adding a lot of plug-in effects I really start feeling the load. Although I recently...

I use an Audiophile 2496 with Gigastudio - it works perfectly.

In my setup I have both Sonar and Gigastudio running on a single computer. I have two interfaces because I can't playback out of Giga and Sonar at the same time through the same card (I suppose I could if I hard a card or interface with multiple stereo outs, but in my case I am outputting my...

Nice to see some progress. Keep it up!

mrbowes belongs on the good guys list. Very pleased with my purchase of a pair of C4s.

First thing you'll need to understand is that sound-proofing and acoustic treating are really two different things. You're studio will not be dead because you used real sound proofing techniques in your construction. Many people seem to get confused, and think that things like foam, acoustic...

Oh help me - I've gotta stop laughing. The guys here at the office are gonna wonder what's up.

With a $3000 budget for everything, I think maybe you're a bit premature to worry about a control surface. I believe there are a few control surfaces with built in preamps, but the ones I've seen lately would eat up an awful big chunk of your budget. Likewise, the Mackie MCU and Tascam units I...

Probably caused in part by people who hear things and repeat them, without having actual experience in the matter themselves, just because they want to have something to say. I suppose I may have even been guilty of this at times myself, but am trying hard to keep it in check. If we could all...

Depends what you consider affordable. Do you have a budget? I am using a Peavey Studiomix at the moment, works fine with Sonar (don't know about Reason) - cost about $300, three or four years ago. I'd like to upgrade, either to the Mackie MCU with an expander (about $1700) or more likely to...

And just when I think I can't possibly love this place any more, along comes an interesting thread like this. Right on!

I know sonic; my comments weren't in any way referring to you. Certainly we want the fellow to consider the possibility of fire hazard when choosing his construction methods. I was really referring to the guys who were jumping down his throat about his plans, and/or turning things into a big...

See, now that's what I'm talking about. Short and sweet to be sure, but it's actually useful information.

You know guys, what I got out of his post is that he's obviously new to the world of recording, but very enthused and looking for people to share his ideas with. The guys only 15 years old, and could use some reasonable advice. Come on, every one of us was new at this at one point (I wish I...

Hi spikey. All joking aside, Rick is right - the foam bed mats aren't gonna provide soundproofing. If you're serious about building a studio, be sure you spend plenty of time reading about the subject. Start by cruising through the numerous threads here in the studio building and display, and...

Can't comment specifically on the B1, but have to say I'm very impressed with Studio Projects gear in general. I'm a guy working with a limited budget, but also very critical about getting good results - a tough combination, right? Still I recently puchased both an SP C1 mic and a VTB1 pre...

Hey alevy, I'm not much of a rap/hip hop guy - I'm more of an old rocker that grew up with the music of the 70s and 80s. But after Chessrock's comments I went ahead and listened to Hood on Smash, and i gotta say, i can really hear the talent and potential here. I hope you'll keep asking...

Nice job! Hope it works out well for you.

I can concur with this, for sure. I have the heater duct blocked in my studio with mdf to keep the noise from traveling into the bedrooms when I am in there late at night. I made the thing removable so I could take it off to get heat into the room, but I have found I never need to take it off...
