    Overcoming monitor budget limitations

    If we were a working studio, we would be prepared for these "noises" and strive to be faithful when needed. Depends on what you are doing, but music can be musical and enjoyable. With the piano, 27 can be effective. But no, no point in dancing around down there/ Rumble in a stone grain mill and...

    Overcoming monitor budget limitations

    You might look at the specs for the KH120 monitor for distortions. They've already changed the way they put forth the distortion spec at least once, but it still one of the specs we don't see on cookie cutter monitors ( for good reason ) while you can mix level in the lows, 100Hz may all sound...

    EQ sweep

    "Is this a digital problem possibly...the analog vs digital thing"? For me it is. But, the digital amp side seems to suffer most as the gain and effects go up.

    Question about audio interface ADAT expansion and

    The ADA8200 digital preamp you can use now, if the F-rite has the connection. Personally, I don't think premium amps are gonna' help "Electronica" all that much.

    Overcoming monitor budget limitations

    "Am I missing a lot of instrumental sound production activity under 50Hz", Try getting your shit together : ) hhaha. Ya, old records often have 16Hz . How many cathedral organ records do you have ? The other side of this is that ported boxes aren't big organ boxes. You want Acoustic Suspension...

    Using a variac for n00bs

    Beyond that, many don't know what the service is feeding the area for voltage. You don't, particularly, want 120v at your 110v amp, either

    Overcoming monitor budget limitations

    Ya, I bought fones with a large flat aREA TO MIX BASS ON. i ONLY CARE ABOUT 50hZ TO 15KhZ, HOWEVER. fOR MYSELF, i SEE NO NEED TO PUNISH MY SELF, or, the neighbourhood with un-musical frequencies.

    Berhinger Q802usb vs Berhinger x1222 usb

    The basic mixer takes whatever is plugged in and mixes it to two-channel output. It can have more features as the prices goes up, but the main idea is the 2-channel Stereo output. I bought the most expensive xenyx at around $400 and it is still a stereo mixer - line out, or, USB. The features I...

    Mic preamp

    The VTB1 was notable when it came out, but we gots that baby Golden Age now, and I think the TPS is worthwhile. If CoolCat is around, he can chime in on the best ART for low bucks & a couple sleepers

    Perplexed By Loops

    Well, it is going to be a lot easier with drums and synthetic music. But, you simply will have to be able to hear a sample and see how to use it. In my little experience, there are not a lot of good fits - like going through picture puzzle pieces

    Mic preamp

    Cheaper might do, as one has to go up to respectable levels. Ya, I'd snag a VTB1. Next time around would the MIC.

    Once again, there is a free Magix Music Maker for PC that can give insight - along with the tutorial VIDs Magix put out and what was originally what I recommended.

    Question about the tascam 24 and 32 track portastudios

    Well, I don't need the big track counts, but I was never under the illusion that my disk recorders were anything other than recorders. You can't beat editing in the DAW.. I can avoid the eye strain and track quick and dirty for a portion of the overall ordeal. The first Chicago (CTA) double...
