I am familiar with triton proX but not with Protools. Anyway if you connect the triton midi out to computer midi in and computer midi out to triton midi in. You are set. Then you need to assign the channels in Protools to triton Programs. It should be under "midi settings" or "instrument...
you need a midi interface with atleast 4 in 4 out, then you can patch stuff around. Look at this

Usually these soundcards are not truly meant for 96Khz, all they do is some real time convertion to adapt to 96Khz. That static means they can't handle it :p Be careful with that static, they are gonna tear your ear drums one day. If you try to run teh song from starting to end without any...
Any soundcard than comes integrated in your mother board is not a very good choice. They are not meant for recording and is defintely not going to handle your expectations. Since you have a nice quality setup, go with a better sound card. They are the most important of all. M audio is a great...
When you say blank 80 audio disk, you mean a 80GB hard drive? I assume it is some kind of hard drive, run your OS disk and there should be an option to format your drive in either NTFS or Fat32 file system. If you are running windows XP NTFS is better than Fat32.
You are gonna use the mixer as a input/output device, so connect your stereo out of the o1v to the line input of the digi001 and then take the digi out and go through the aux of the o1v mixer. Your studio monitors in teh control room out and you are set.
If you are an analog guy, get a goodmixer with quality preamps (vlz pro series) and run the line out straight to your soundcard line in. You dont need any other stuff.
In soundcard the more you pay the better quality you get, if you dont want to buy a new card that is fine, try to get the max out of Audigy. Get a good software, any Cakewalk software would do the jobs you expect. Download a demo as Stealthtech said and look for the one you are comfortable...
Yeah, it will add noise, but not so much. You said you are setting up the drum in the garage and if your garage is not sound isolated, then the noise your microphones pick would be more than the cable noise, so you dont have to worry about the cable noise for now :p
Drums are very hard...
It is good to have hyper threading, definitely helps. Especially when you have a dual channel ram. You would see a great difference in processing speed.
COmpression is a very very important at the same time dangerous processing, so take a little care when you are using it. Basically the two main stuff you have to worry about in compression is Threshold and ratio. Threshold is the point you fix in the amplitude of the audio signal from where you...
If you are recording bands, you need more microphone for drums. Other than that you are pretty much covered. Put some effort in the acoustics of your building and that will bring a great difference in your recordings.
I dont know much about Digidesign Mbox (hope it has one mic input and 1 direct input) you may be having an impedence problem. Go through a direct box, this will let you cut the signal real hot. You could get one from $20 to $150. Some DI even comes with a preamp. So give it a try.
Since you say it sounds good in the room, I think you are expecting to capture the presence of the room. Double mic it. Close mic with your 57 and put the 414 few feet away to catch early reflection. I think you'll get the sound you expect.
There is no hard and strict rules in recording, if you feel it brings the best in the musician, try it! Use Baffles around the drum and also the guitar amp. Close mic most of the stuff. Make your band members face away from each other and probably you wont have any phase problems unless your...
Some of the old drives wont play certain CD-R. Like the old car Cd players wont take in any CD-R or Cd-RW. so that may be yoru problem. Is it a CD-R you are trying to play? How old is your drive anyway?
I haven't used it, but it looks like any other regular analog mixer with quality effects. Just plug all the mics to the XLR inputs 1-8, then all your instruments to the other 1/4" channels (use a direct box) direct box recommended
