MOTU 2408 + Digital Performer Robert Jaybird said: "if you have the $$$ a better combo would be a motu 2408 with cubase using a mackie for the pre amps(unless you'd want to get sometrhing better)" That's very true. I personally think that a potentially better combo would be the 2408 +...

I am contemplating purchasing a CDRW. I have a Mac Dual Processor 500, and am looking at either an internal SCSI CDRW or a Firewire CDRW. Has anyone had experience with Firewire (Which is what I am now leaning toward)? Any pitfalls or things to look out for? Thanks in advance for your input...

Kristian This is BAD!!! Really BAD. NOT worth the risk. Thanks all for your advice. AlinMV

Has anyone purchased any gear at Zzounds? If so, what kind of experience did you all have? I am about to plunk down some dough and found some great prices but need to know what kind of BS I may have to deal with. I have never ordered anything on the web yet. Thanks AlinMV

Get the Events PS8's. Well worth the money. I got mine and agree with Gabriel. They beat the Alesis M-1's hands down.

Thanks Emeric for the info.

I've heard that speaker cables should be the same length from the Amplifier. I have PS8 active monitors, and because of my home studio's configuration, I have my mixer to one side, and as a result, one of my monitors has to be connected by a longer cable from my mixer's outs than the other. Is...

ADAT? Dobro (and Ed) "the Way To Go (*IF* you can get the bastard to work) is... track to ADAT, mix in software, and get your stuff mastered by someone who knows what they're doing." Why track to ADAT when you can track, edit, mix, and master on a hard drive? I am a newbie, so if the answer...

Thanks for the URL. I finally saw it at Mars Music. Two things struck me: 1) It is much larger than the pics indicate and 2) It sounds great.

Has anyone laid their hands on this machine? If so, any feedback? AlinMV

Yeah the DPS16 is cool. BUT have you checked out the Yamaha AW 4416? If not you owe it to yourself to check out this machine! http://www.aw4416.com/e/index.html

PS 8's The PS 8's as the name implies have an 8" woofer. I A/B'd them with the 20/20 bas. You literally cannot distinguish one from the other by looking at them. They do sound different, however. The PS8s seemed more mid rangey. But we are talking minutae here. And for the price difference...

Frankly, AlChuck, there are so many words being bandied about with different meanings that I don't feel quite sure what I am getting from any of the software products I am looking at other than what they specifically tell you. Even the Digidesign guy could not state what the limitations on...

Thanks AlChuck for the info. The issue for me is that with Digi 001 for instance I am limited to 24 playback tracks. So, if I used actual tracks for multiple takes, I'd run out of tracks in no time. So, virtual tracks, play lists, (or whatever they're called) is a must if Digi's 001 is even...

For whomever cares, here is a post by the Digi Tech Support people on the Digidesign User Conference: jnilson posted February 16, 2000 08:36 AM does the digi001 have virtual tracks or some form of virtual tracks for multiple takes on a track...

I suppose I could start a new project (same song, different file) and record a second take of whatever track I need. The question I had was "is there something less cumbersome than having to do such a thing with computer based DAW"? BTW, thanks AlChuck for the clarifications. On the 001...

I have been doing some research for a computer DAW set up for a Mac, and in my price range I am currently between the MOTU 2408 and Digi 001. I read someplace that computer DAW's such as the Digi 001 do not offer virtual tracks. Is that true? Is there a way around that? Thanks Al

Pro tools here I come I am also trying to resolve whether to go with the 001 in my set up or go with the MOTU 2408. I've read much about both, and wondered what you all think about the 24 track limitation on the Digi 001. I don't like the price of the 2408 especially that I want midi, and...

Has anyone compared these two setups? I've done a lot of research on these two and it's now down to which one delivers the best sound quality. I really can't A/B them in my local music stores because I'd be running different tracks through different monitors, etc. Any ideas? Thanks for the...
