Ok so now i've come to the part of the learning curve when after the inicial romance with this new thing you get really frustrated because things are not working out. Kinda like when you have your first fight with your girlfriend. As I said earlier y first try was inpiring. I've been...

Damn, I should've done my research better. I bought my TASCAM us144 a week ago and for about 30 dlls more I could've had the us800. Great work Jimmy!

Im in a similar situation as you guys. Even though my room is smaller and has no sloped ceilings (no snow here in mexico) im getting into home recording and I dont really know what a good room sounds like. As Hakea said, you can't really fight until you know what you're fighting against. I guess...

You're the man Jimmy!

Hey no one has posted a reply here and I think this would be a very interesting thread.

Im really a begginer at this. I was talking to some guys at the newbies forum about monitors and they told me no matter how good my monitors are they will sound crappy in a crappy room. My "control room" is a 6x11 feet room with A LOT of books at the back. Both side walls (on the short sides)...

Yeah, the c4000 is a great mic, what I've been able to record sounds really beautiful through that. The sm57 is harsh for mee, but everyone has one and I guess with attention to position it will do a fine job. I dont really know if my room sounds good :confused:. It's just the room where I keep...

Ok thanks a lot for your help guys. I guess Ill save a little and Ill look for a good used pair. The thing is im from Mexico and things here cost quite more. Also there es really little offer so one doesnt have a lot of options. I will be pacient with this. I know a good deal will pop at a moment

OMG ): I think I will return all of my equipment. Hahaha just kidding. Tell me more about the room. I will probably have them in a 2x4 meter room (sorry, I use Iinternational Unit system) with a bunch of bookshelves on the back. Any advices on this? So I should deffinetely buy more expensive...

Mmm so now I have a problem. I knew I was going to need a pair of monitors but I didnt think it was THE most important piece of equipment for my recording. I was going to spend around 200 bucks for them but now Im thinking I should save for something better. What do you think? It just kinda...

Thanks a lot! I guess Ill spend a bunch of time in this forum in the future. So basicaly I wont really improve until I purchase a good pair of monitors and Im able to hear accurately what Im recording?

Currently I dont. I know thats the next step. Ill be getting a pair in amonth

And what do you mean exactly by "learn from what you hear"? Besides from a good sound source (good recording player and a good instrument) what will make the most difference in the sound of my recording? I mean what should i do if i bring freakin miles davis over and his trumpet sounds like crap...

I just bought a tascam us144 and a piar of mikes: akg c4000 and shure sm57. I came home and recorded my guitar amp with both of them, sm close miking the amp and akg as a room mike. I didnt pay a lot of attention to the placing of the mikes since i was anxious to try my interface. The result was...

Im also unable to hear the click track

I will post a screenshot as soon as I have acces to my project (currently im working with a diff computer). Thanks a lot for your help so far!

Ive tried both mono and stereo

I've tried that :/ also disabling the recording button on the tracks

Ok so I bought this audio interface and I installed the included Cubase LE 5 software. I read the manual and set up my vst conections (1 stereo bus for in and 1 for out). The ASIO driver is the tascam us 144mkii. Everything is supposed to be fine, but when I record something I cant play it back...
