A few years back I used to use the Tascam 428 and loved it, had shortcut keys that I could program to do what I wanted.

try going to the m audio website it lists those in a little more details than the digidesign website. http://www.m-audio.com/

You can use the 003 on a mac, I use my mbox 1 on a mac, and I have even used my 002r on my mac laptop.

I loved using the Masterlink..... Haven't used that one, what is your setup? just wondering why you need an external burner

What is the black lion mod? cause I use a 002r at my studio and use a mbox 1 at home to mix on

Yeah, I have never personally used N Tracks but been on this board for years now, even though I have been away for a while and I heard good stuff about it years ago from this board and people still are talking good about it. So if it works for you go with it.

What software are you using, as this seems it is either a latency issue in the software itself which could "potentially" be fixed with a few clicks of the mouse, or it could just be the soundcard and I have heard nothing but bad things about using a soundblaster for recording.

LOL. It's too late now, I've been buying on ebay for about 4-5 years now, and even when I'm not buying I'm still searching. Its an addiction lol.

Firewire is "suppossed" to be faster than usb. And for you to be getting a usb error you might want to try tweaking your settings in protools as far as your cpu usage and your samples. Or you could be trying to run to many things at once. What is the specs on your computer and are you running...

I think now they make them easier to but in most cases it's best to get a external drive that way if you want to just grab and go you can, but really it's just whatever is best for you. I just prefer external drives

Yeah go with adobe audition. It's simple and easy to use. I used it back when it was cool edit pro, and not much of a change to the "ease of use"

I would say skip on the soundcard and get you an interface either usb or firewire if you have it.

True, but also look how long the 001 has been in service, and not only that as of right now I still have a mbox 1 that I use at home and I'm upgrading still and I'm at 7.4, I think they might keep those around for a while but you never know.

Cool. I'll have to check that out, I'm a ebay junkie anyways, even if im not buying anything I still search it, lol.

I do believe so but your best bet would be to get an external drive and run either firewire or usb.

Cool you got a great deal on that.

That was gonna be my next question, what are you comparing your mixes to? Because if it's commercial cd's or products that have been mastered it is going to be lower.

I replied to one of your other posts but if you want to add an outboard compressor which normally has eq built into it as well, you can run your xlr cable from your mic to the compressor, then use the out on the compressor whether it be xlr or 1/4" and go into your xlr or 1/4" in on your...

Run your mic into an outboard compressor, then you can run xlr out of the compressor to the xlr in, if your compressor doesn't have xlr out you might have to use a 1/4" out to 1/4" in. I have to do that when I use one of my compressors, but I much prefer the xlr out to xlr in just makes me feel...

Hard to make it sound original but you might want to try adding eq's to the vocal. Even if the beat hasn't been mastered sometimes in the situations I've been in an artist will get a beat which doesn't "fit" their vocal tone so you have to eq their vocal to "fit in" with the instramental.
