    What is Korg's rep with DAWs?

    I had a D32XD and the mic pres aren't very good. And yes, mine is in the shop for hdd creating some sort of noise. Other than the few complaints, I haven't heard much bad about them and their built in effects are very good. Unless you have the monitoring/home theater system from hell...

    Studio construction questions

    I'm not an expert on acoustics or studio construction, but I'd seriously reconsider putting the studio on the second floor, especially if this is a residential home. For one thing you really have no idea what is going to change in the future. You never know, you may end up with a wife (God...

    Korg D32XD

    YES. I was actually in the middle of a recording project when this happened. Nothing was more frustrating than having this happen after taking a while to set up mics and meticulously tuning drums while trying different head and different drums, and, well this could go on for a while. I ended...

    What AD/DA converters are you using?

    Motu 24io, but I'm saving for a Lavry Gold unit. I have a long way to go.

    Don't mind this post.

    umm, those links won't work with the ... in the middle of them ;). As far as midi goes, there are some midi to usb cables that might work for you. I've heard of driver problems with them though, so make sure the store you get them has a good return policy. You also need a converter to change...

    MOTU 896HD vs Presonus Firepod

    I have a 24io that I'm not terribly fond of. It wasn't bad for the money, but it doesn't sound as good as I'd like. The card also seems to be causing problems for me and like at most tech companies, the tech support is full of idiots, so getting stuff to work well is going to be a bit of a...

    New-endo advice?

    Getting a live vibe for a studio album - how to best use the mics we have

    You may want to try to isolate the amps. I like to experiment with different stuff, so what I tell you is probably gonna be miles away from what others will tell you. If you can isolate the amps, I'd put the AKG at the center in front of the drums and the vocal mic centered but further back...

    Korg D32XD

    Is the drive full? I don't see why that would give you a read problem, but it can put a strain on the system. Did you try optimizing the drive/tracks? This might help. I'd start with that first. If you are still having problems and if you don't need the data on the drive, wipe it out, if...

    TSL60 vs DSL50

    Oh and I should also say that a lot of your sound is going to come from you fingers and pick. Try and get something good with what you have. Try picking at a slightly different angle, make sure any pulloffs you have are clean, make sure that you're not muting too hard or too soft, etc. These...

    TSL60 vs DSL50

    What do you use for a cab with the lower setting? My guitar player has a TSL100 running a 1960A cab and it sounds decent live. I don't know where his settings are though. Keep in mind that this setup is LOUD. Gig volume lately has been at 1.5-2, and even lower than that at some places...

    Best speaker brand???

    If the room is small and quiet 18s may be a bit much. I think that is why x suggested the 15s for subs. If you do that, you may want to look at 12s for tops. Turbosounds sound great. I don't hear them very often, but the few times I have heard them I've been impressed. They're usually a bit...

    Best speaker brand???

    Basically what it boils down to is what you want the music to do. Nothing brings out a groove like 18" subwoofers. If you want something that people can really get up and move to, I'd go with the sub/top from the JRX or the LX. If you want something that people can just sit back and listen to...

    Best speaker brand???

    Ok, I just reread your original post. You mentioned EAW's which would blow away the LX's, JBL's, Eliminator's, etc... But they will cost you more than double what all the other speakers you've mentioned. You mentioned subs. I like Yamaha subs. I'm genereally not a fan of anything else...

    Best speaker brand???

    I've never done any direct comparisons. The LX's handled more power than the EV's, and that's why I got them. JBL is all over the place in my neck of the woods so I hear them all the time. I'm not their biggest fan, but they are popular. I like the EV stuff better than JBL. LX vs JRX is a...

    Best speaker brand???

    I have a pair of LX's (15in) and other than the horn being a little hot, they sound fine, especially for the money. I just roll of a little high end and they're fine. I have a pair of EV eliminators that sound good.
