I'm looking for an affordable option for adding drums to my music. I have very limited drumming ability at the moment, but I am trying to decide between investing in a very small kit or using some software tools to get a decent drum track. I doubt that I can get a truly realistic drum sound...

Not to steer this topic off course, but how exactly do you make drum patterns with these programs? Do they come with some sort of sequencer? I was always under the impression that they were just a library of sounds.

I'm using the demo version of Tracktion for a little while now and I'm pretty certain that I want to purchase it, along with some recording hardware (PCI card). The one constant issue that I've had is that when I'm playing guitar in Tracktion 2.0, I hear two signals - one in real-time, and one...

I don't know...I guess from using real mixers, I always find myself looking for a bass/mid/treble tone stack on the Cakewalk mixer. Of course, you wouldn't be able to be as precise with that type of eq tweaking.

What is mixing like in Traction 2.0 or Sonar? Do either have a mixer? Also, is there a way to adjust bass/treble in these apps other than an eq plug in?

yes, those plug ins are definately swaying me in that direction. I'm sorry I missed the boat on Tracktion 1.0 - it was a free download?

After a long break, I'm ready to start recording on my PC again. Since most of the computer related hardware and software I have is seriously out-dated at this point, I'm looking to upgrade my current setup. Funds are limited at this point, so price is a serious consideration, especially since...

I'm torn about what to do in this situation. I'd love to blow the whistle on this guy and have us all just go flame crazy on him, but all that will probably accomplish is more of the same type of behavior. I suppose reporting him is an option, but really, the more I think about it, the...

I'm debating whether or not I should reveal who it is in a post. Perhaps it would be more fun to return the favor in very colorful ways... plus I am sure there is more than one...but this guy I definately caught in the act...

Guess what? I figured out who the douche bag is! I watched my user profile for new negative reps, and watched the post to see who was viewing it, refreshing both windows. There was only one user viewing it at the time. This user's profile stated they were viewing this thread at 13:15, this...

Got another one in my response..still no username, of course... Seriously, what is the purpose of this feature? If it's going to be this anonymous and abused like this, why even bother having it? Oh well.

I just got another one too... "Here's one to lick" Seriously, whoever is just shelling out the negative rep - what a gutless little pussy you are. At least have the balls to leave your name. Not to worry, September will be here soon, and you can go back to middle school, your remedial...

Wow - I had no idea what that was... and to show exactly how it works - for responding to your post incorrectly (though I clearly stated it was a shot in the dark) I got the following: "Wrong, dumbass! " "Suck on this. " For every good guy on this forum, there are eight a**holes.

this is a shot in the dark, cause I'm not sure either - but I always assumed it meant "negative reply".

Interesting replies, thanks for the help guys. I'm on the fence at the moment...I've got a Mackie 1204 right now, so that's all I have to base pres on, but from what I've heard they leave a lot to be desired. It does fine for now, but I guess you don't know what you're missing until you hear...

Can anyone comment on the sound quality of these? How would they compare to something along the lines of the DMP3? Or possibly even an RNP or other preamp a bit higher on the quality scale? I guess I'm just trying to determine where they rank in terms of preamps, and if it would be worth...

So can anyone comment on any difference in the sound quality of the following cards: 1) Delta 44 2) Delta 1010LT 3) AudioPhile 2496 I'm in the same boat - trying to decide between the 44 and the 1010. The 2496 isn't really an option because of the limited # of inputs, but if there is a...

OK, I think I get it - so these are basically similar to other drum libraries that have come out in the past, only they offer new levels of control on the sound (such as the mic bleed feature on DFH).

I've been watching the tutorials and looking at the screenshots of these and I'm confused about one aspect of both of these products. Where do the sequences come from? Is there a library of sequences that you can work with? Or do they have to be constructed like something done in FL? If they...

Thanks for the tips and the honesty guys. Sometime you just need to hear it like it is. I'm probably going to sell everything fairly soon, except for the Mackie. I don't think I will be hanging on to the Mackie on a permanent basis, but possibly just until I can save enough to get something...
