Oh, I'm well aware of all those settings, both in the router and within W7, itself. Sure, it'll work. What you suggest is entirely configurable and generally reliable. I've done it myself. But I think you hit on something with "you have to be doubly sure..." No. I don't. As long as there's...

Oh boy! An oldster like me. 3.5 decades, huh? Why... you mighta owned a STRING MACHINE.:thumbs up: Okay, this is not hard. 1. Determine your budget. Anything from "get by" to "get with it" is available. The tech is mature. The prices are full spectrum. Any Craigslist computer with a USB...

This is precisely what I have done. An Intranet. I have 9 computers for various tasks (music, engineering, archive, etc.) and only this one is ever connected online. No W10. W7, XP, Mac, and Linux. Everybody talks to everyone else, except this one. This online unit is W7, but no problems...

I love these projects. Done several. Have one to do, but the cabinet isn't really spiff. It'll need some cleaning and conditioning. So the only priority that really matters is *appearance*. That's all. Someone else might wanna restore the thing. Okay. They could. They get crazy. They...

Ever met a guitarist that plugs directly into an amp and nothing else? They're quite rare. Way back when Jimi H had a distortion box made, they've been using effects to sound *better*. And it does. YouTube has some comical vids of metal songs played with no distortion. Few mixers can have...

Yeah, this looks like what I was afraid of. Just gonna fiddle through the Yamaha, Roland, and Casio catalogs and see what i can find. I'm not above doing a little surgery (like I did with the MKB), so probably gonna hafta go the hard way. Thanks all!

See, I didn't even know the Swissonic existed. So yes, I'll check that one out. I've been TOLD these are crazy heavy like my Yamaha KX88. I'll look around for specs. 61 key is out. Got several, myself. That's what i'm finding, too.

I suppose that might be a problem with non-keyboard people. Keyboards are made in 88, 76, 73, 61, and 49 key versions. Nothing more. (Well, i suppose some nob will find a 54 key piano made in the 30s for dirigible service.) As I have a specific hole to fill, I can use either 76 or 73 key. 88...

Gosh, what a happy and helpful group. This explains so much

Legitimately asking about Piano controllers.... sorta. I have a 76 note very old Roland MKB300(?) 76 note (E-G) keyboard. It's a tank. It's part of a setup I need to trim some weight from. What i'd like is 73 or preferably 76 keys of piano action. 88 won't fit in the setup. Not genuine legit...

There was an article where they took a technical tour through a Neve console describing all the superfluous circuitry compared to SSL where Rupert would color code connectors for gain staging within the channel, correcting to unity as the signal went through the chain. Why? only Rupert knew...

I know better than to argue with the Queen's Own Geezer on this, so I'll just say you've neither corrected nor explained anything. Transformers cycle in and out of saturation in microseconds, so yes, while conductivity is truncated during that time (duh), it reappears equally quick, thus...

Almost everything in music comes around full circle and transformers are one such item. All of these things start with "I remember..." There was a day when you couldn't give away a Hammond. There was a day when you couldn't find any interest in modular synths. There was a day when electronics...

"Baby, baby, baby, baby..." J. Beiber. Someone made a pile of loot off that song. It was, I'm quite certain, substandard to all involved, and yet it was popular. But This is a general rule in society. Those of training and discipline routinely produce work of refinement and technique, be...

That is a lie. Whether you're spreading it or someone told you, I don't know, but it's a lie. W7 works just fine as does XP and many others. So slinging that out there is gravely mistaken and misleading. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt considering your comments below. Again, you...

You're under no obligation to get W10. Just like in the 90s, products are a bit deceptive in their labeling. Back then, a hard drive would say "PC compatible" on it or "Mac Compatible". Of course, they were both, but they had to pay a small fee to use the trademarked label on their...

Vocabulary is the key From your childhood, you develop a speaking vocabulary. From attempting to form and use words, by listening to others, you mimic and then create sentences. Over time, through much more discovery and necessary correction, you develop both a spoken and written vocabulary...

Rule #1: everything fails. Sooner or later, everything fails. So the question is not if it fails, the questions is if you've established and sustained a proper backup regimen for when it inevitably does fail. Rule #2: Well, there's really not much left. An external SSD has very little...

Guess it's been said. DAWs all sound alike because they have no sound... or only theoretical differences at possibly a roundoff level if one wants to be entirely accurate - and again, this is theoretical. This has been true for basically ever. Mix magazine did some data dumps of Pro Tools...

The only "electronic based musician" that doesn't need an audio interface is one that works solely in VST or virtual instruments. That's not many. But I wouldn't rid myself of your decent interface. As you progress, you will someday find a need for something that doesn't synthesize or sample...
