    Help Please! Acouistic Treatment for Brighton Recording Studio

    Stephen, I'm not sure this is the correct forum to properly address this issue. Have a look at the studio construction forum on GearSlutz, as well as the www.johnlsayers.com forum. John Sayers is a well known studio designer and acoustician. I think the level and depth of knowledge required...

    pt rant

    I'll be honest: I skipped over a bunch of the last posts. Let me just say this: The digi001 was released in Dec'1999. That's nearly 10 years ago. The major problem with it is that the PCI-X slot format has been largely abandoned by the computing industry. To expect a piece of computer hardware...

    mbox2 pro monitor knob won't work.

    I think your mbox is broken! I've heard this happen a few times before with them. When did you buy it? If it's still under guarantee, take it back to where you bought it from.

    Reflexion filter to augment recording setup

    Actually, I realised I moved your thread without ever giving an answer :D Reflexion filters are pretty brilliant, with a few caveats: 1) if your room already sounds good, then it's a bit pointless. It's nice for getting dry vocals in a very lively room. 2) It can be used very effectively...

    200-500 Hz

    I found that in my mixing I often wanted to alter similar frequency ranges. It might have been a room acoustic thing, I'm not sure. Either way, it worked very well for my. Unconventional yes, but fuck the rule book, this is recording. Also, I'm a firm believer of sending the ME the best...

    ? about pt 8 le

    I don't think there's any difference between the two methods - just a question of preference. The workspace window also does a LOT more than just doing imports! SRC stands for Sample Rate Conversion. You would need to do this if your audio file is at a different sample rate than the destination...

    Reflexion filter to augment recording setup

    I think this question is probably best suited in the Recording Techniques forum - this is a specific Pro Tools user forum and your question isn't really PT related! thread moved!

    Will G4 run Pro Tools 8 and Digi 002R?

    Or even, for really not that much more money (if at all) get a decent 2nd hand G5 on ebay.

    Digidesign C24

    No, HD cards are only for Tools HD. A 003 and a MBP will be just fine - if its one of the new MBP's then you'll need a FW400 to 800 converter.

    Mac and pc question

    Leave XP. From what I hear, Vista is much more CPU/RAM intensive to run - so your computer will in effect be less powerful! As they say, if it ain't broke....

    It's not confusing. It's wrong. I was having a senior moment :D

    When I'm stacking my vocals? PT8 LE (hip hop track)

    I think it depends what kind of effect you want. For that realy synthetic-sounding vocal, you'll want them tightly doubled and the stack on on top of the other - however, this will reveal inconsistencies in the performances a lot more than the next technique. If you pan them, it will make a...

    are you using PT 8?

    Not sure I'd agree - often the first version or 2 of their software has a fair few bugs in it! I know quite a few pro studios who often wait for version x.1 or x.2 to come out before upgrading to ensure there are no stability issues!

    200-500 Hz

    To be fair, even in most professional studios that I've worked in, I find myself cutting the same frequencies. I used to work in a very nice studio and used to leave an EQ on the master bus, with a small scoop in the low-mids and a small boost for presence...I found I used to do that to most...

    Good Guitar Cable

    Planet waves is just fine - and they have a life-time guarantee which actually works. One of mine died a few weeks ago, and I took it in to a shop and they exchanged it - no questions asks, no receipt shown, in with the broken cable and out again with a brand new one. Otherwise I make my own -...

    Quick pro tools editing question. Thanks :)

    no problem. Read up about these edit modes, then can make life a lot easy (i mostly shift between slip and grid).

    Quick pro tools editing question. Thanks :)

    you've got yourself it "shuffle" edit mode. This means that when you move/edit a region, it will automatically stick itself next to the closest region. Change your edit mode to "slip". You can find the different mode-button selectors in the top left-hand corner of Pro Tools, or use the F1 thru...

    Nah mate, still on 7.4 here :( but i suspect it's only a matter of time!

    Logic or ProTools - Help Needed

    There is fundamentally very little between the two programs for what you want to do - you already own PT, so I'd stick with that. However, you're talking about Apple loops and I don't know much about that - could you use those it PT or can they only be accessed thru Logic? You should record...

    I believe internal sata will be faster.
