    alesis m1 520 usb monitors

    Well I can get always get a refund and go to a lower version. If I can't use it for some reason then there is no point in jacking up my credit cards. Ive spent tons of money on mics, guitar amps etc (the joys of having a guitar center credit card) over the years to record on my Tascam neo. I was...

    alesis m1 520 usb monitors

    Im using 10HD. Nothing can be selected except asio4all for some reason. It will play through the speakers on my laptop...yay... For now Ill probably look for a splitter like you suggested. I emailed alesis and still have gotten no reply so Ill probably give them a call Monday. I found a few...

    alesis m1 520 usb monitors

    Ha. No apologies necessary...Yes I did go to playback engine. Nothing is there...no matter how much I cuss at it. Thanks for the info on the splitter though. I appreciate you taking the time to try and help me figure this out.

    alesis m1 520 usb monitors

    yeah they work for everything but pro tools. Its also in the windows CP. Im also looking at splitters and can't seem to find one that splits to trs...just ts. The box says they are trs inputs so I don't know if that's a deal breaker or what. also it plugs in and it installs itself. I can't find...

    alesis m1 520 usb monitors

    Thanks. Yeah I don't have the option to chose the device by name...its rather strange. As far as the splitter goes, do I just plug that into my headphone jack on my computer?

    alesis m1 520 usb monitors

    I think the problem is they don't use asio4all...they use their own interface when plugged in usb...which doesn't seem to want to play nice with pro tools. They do however have two 1/4" inputs on the back. Perhaps I could buy some sort of cheap audio interface to run them through in order to...

    alesis m1 520 usb monitors

    Yeah im currently using 10. Pretty sure I messed with the buffer setting for a hour....still there. This is my lot in life I guess. Any other way to connect these things to a laptop without the usb?

    alesis m1 520 usb monitors

    Well they don't work for anyone else wondering. I did manage to get some sound out of them by changing the hardware from asio4all to the usb codec...but I get a lot of annoying pops. There has got to be some sort of way to make this work.

    Compression on every track?

    Ive always just compressed bass and vocals. A friend of mine asked me why I never compressed my guitars. The only answer I could come up with is it looks and sounds like they don't need it. Im no wizard lol...just use my ears.

    tempo for mixing?

    Thanks for the reply. Yeah the money is a definite selling point. My friend had told me reaper is much easier to learn and use right out of the box. Although trying to do research between the two I can't get a clear answer on it...as everyone likes different things and use them for different...

    tempo for mixing?

    Thanks again! You seem to know things about pro tools. How are the presets? Usable? I keep hearing amazing things about reaper...would that be a better option? Sorry...this whole DAW thing is new to me. I know how noobs can be frustrating. Switching from a standalone machine is becoming more...

    tempo for mixing?

    Awesome. thanks guys! I got a little confused when I was importing them...when I hit the add button a message popped up saying the song might not play back at the right speed. I then tried hitting the convert button before adding them and I didn't get that message. No clue what that was about...

    Hello all! I ve got a question regarding the tempo as far as mixing goes in pro tools 10. I don't use PT to record but I am going to be using it for mixing. My question is....if im importing tracks form my Tascam neo to mix in PT do I need to set up a tempo or just add the tracks and go from...
