I think I get how the bow would make the wave off-center when through a DI, Farview, but wouldn't that only apply to instruments that are played with a bow, though? Since it's the bow pulling on the string that pulls it off-center of the pickup and makes it oscillate around said off-center...

I was going to say something similar, and add that for that to be caused by compression, it would have to have zero attack and a release time of exactly 1.0/(sampling rate * 2.0) , so it would only attack the positive half of each oscillation and release the negative half. 0.01133(snip)MS for...

Oh, and: It most certainly is not! There's like 4 little modules they have to open source to use (L)GPL libraries, but the vast majority of Reaper is closed source... I would do all kinds of horrible things to see the rest of their source code....man that would be badass.

This++. I remember starting to work with Cubase, and they're not fond memories at all.... it's effing weird at first, even compared to other DAWs. I was pretty fluent in ProTools and Sonic Foundry/Sony software when I first used Cubase, and still didn't know wtf was going on for a while. I...

Yea, not ready and not really interested, I guess. I was thinking much simpler - just a single passive component between source and amp. After looking at, and almost buying, the level pilot bouldersoundguy mentioned and tinkering with all kinds of other stuff in my free time over the last week...

Oh, sweet, thanks dude :D Didn't notice (or think about) the linear/log thing. Ok - instead of ordering and waiting for pots, I just de-soldered a ton of them out of these (otherwise broken) mixing boards. I have quite a few that were for stereo levels/returns/etc that I'm assuming are the...

I'm trying to get up to speed with all this stuff, and I think I understand that if I wire a "quad potentiometer" inline between a balanced, stereo, line level source and an amp that it will work as a simple level controller. Something like this: Slide Quad Potentiometer Alps 10K Lin 60mm...

I totally agree. That song really sucks! ....lol @ typo-fails :p

lol. It's not your fault - it's been half-broken like that for entirely too long now.

HR attachment fail zombies attack again :(

Sounds like a ground-loop between the PC and the Behri. Tried a groundlift on one or the other (or both)?

That's almost certainly correct. All the DVD/surround/amp/receiver all-in-one type units I've ever seen only have stereo inputs. But what model is this thing you're messing around with? Either way - even if you can't use the main part for all the speakers, if your PC has the realtek chip with...

lol, ok. Well we had a thread here: https://homerecording.com/bbs/general-discussions/recording-techniques/drum-recording-help-344402/ where Jimmy and Greg give some really good explanations about why samples are usually used for metal. More reasons exist that aren't necessarily specific to...

And a lot of people don't understand the reasoning behind defining which tools and instruments can be used to create music. No drum triggers...ok... what about keyboards that use great sounding samples of exotic pianos? Cheating? Where do you draw the line? If you really feel that way - I'd...

Baby OJ?

Honestly it doesn't matter at all because they're all sample replaced anyway. Any decent pair of SDCs for overheads is all you really need to be concerned with when recording drums for any kind of metal. Close mics are almost never actually used beyond triggering something else. ...deja vu, lol

You bought $2,000 worth of (redundant) software and don't know what an audio buffer is? Wow...watch out for splinters at the end of the plank, matey. You realize you basically gave no details whatsoever about your problem, right? "Something is wrong". With that amount of detail, the only...

:laughings: .... yeeeaaaa... don't do that :p. They're probably using some old ADAT stuff or something that only works with 48Khz - all you can do is get them to clarify. This post made me laugh out loud, though...literally :laughings:

lol @ walking off and returning to press "submit" and steenie already said it all. high five :p

Very damn important! But not for reasons I think you're driving at. Hard drives fail all the time. Back your stuff up! The performance benefit from using multiple hard drives for audio work is almost negligible, unless you are streaming tons of samples from one disk and recording multiple...
