    EBAY - stret----ching the truth. The real thread.

    Maximum what the seller can possibly offer you is the refund. In this case shipping expenses both ways will most likely be yours. Before anything else I would suggest to make sure that MOTU will honor the warranty, which many companies provide only to the original owner. Since this was a...

    EBAY - stret----ching the truth. The real thread.

    Is it the same light that appears off on the picture? If yes, then you would probably get no cooperation from the seller... :(

    Took out 1010. Put in MOTU 2408. Problems ensue...

    Apparently you had an IRQ sharing/shortage problem. Glad you fixed it! Now back to music. BTW, how do you find the MOTU compared to 1010?

    How about this new system?

    AMDs are as good as Intels, just avoid cheap motherboards with lousy chipsets.

    windows xp doesn't "see" echo mia

    Your ultimate test would be to try to stick the card in some other computer (if you can get access to one) and see if it installs. Sometimes in Windows 2000, whenever first time installation does not go right, all other attempts fail, because instead of using inf file on your drivers cd or...

    Samples licensing

    On a CD with drums samples by ProSamples (East West) I read: "The licensee may modify the sounds and may use the sounds for commercial purposes within musical compositions subject to section 7 below." Section 7: "Use of the included sound samples in "library music" (also known as "production...

    Upgraded to SBLive....LOL!

    It is rather interesting to note that during the latest few weeks I am witnessing a regular emerge of threads on SB, in which some relatively fresh BBS member defends SB quite agressively. Are we under SB marketing attack or what? On the subject: I upgraded from SB to 2496 to 1010 and the...

    adding ram...how should they match up?

    Dell manual will not tell you even half of the story. They say that you should use matched pairs, which is rather typical. But you actually have a single stick of 256, and the manual does not mention this option. The only way to determine your mobo model is to open the box and look - it should...

    adding ram...how should they match up?

    I suggest that you determine what your mobo brand and model number is, and then try to get some tech info. Allowable sizes and types of memory, whether or not you can mismatch memory stick sizes etc., all these questions are usually mobo specific. Besides, brandname computers can be picky about...

    This is called "Kleptomania". You have a neurotic disorder. Maybe you should go find some BB on mental health.

    Annoying sound with Audiophile 2496

    Just a couple of ideas. I understood that you hear the noise on the playback. But how was this file recorded, with or without the mixer? If you can arrange to play this file on another computer, than you can say if your 2496 is adding the noise on the playback. What happens when you play a...

    Annoying sound with Audiophile 2496

    Try to use a sound source that you can feed directly into the soundcard bypassing the mixer, something that does not require preamplification. If the noise is gone - blame your mixer.

    Is there any decent sounding substitution for an orchestra?

    If you have MIDI controller-keyboard check out Roland String Ensemble sound module (M-SE1). It was discontinued several years ago, but you can still catch one on ebay for around $100. It has some pretty realistic strings sounds, fast and slow, even legato, solo and ensemble. More detailed...

    Cds may soon be obsolete

    Cassettes are obviously on the way out, but in many countries of the world they are still playing significant role. Considering all past predictions, cassettes should have been completely dropped many years ago. My point is, that the mere fact of new better format being developed does not mean...

    Cds may soon be obsolete

    No big change will happen in five years. Many years ago I remember reading how CDs would kill cassette tapes. Did they? No. Then another "killer" format emerged - minidisk, which was expected to mark the end of both cassettes and CDs. Did it happen? No. Minidisk did not replace CDs due...

    What do you consider top of the line plugins??

    TC reverb sounds good to me. It is easier on CPU than Waves, so you can run more reverbs at once. Recent discovery is Voxengo stuff: Soniformer (compressor) and Elephant (limiter) are surprisingly good.
