    HELP.....External drive error says "drive needs to be formatted"

    I'm beginning to think that the drive is physically damaged. It makes a funny clicking noise when it's running.

    HELP.....External drive error says "drive needs to be formatted"

    So you use USB flash drives and then transfer to other drives? That's a good idea. I can get a USB 3.0 flash drive (since I have 3.0 on my laptop), which should be plenty fast enough, right?

    HELP.....External drive error says "drive needs to be formatted"

    I used my usual setup which is a Dell desktop running XP Pro, Reaper, and a Presonus Firestudio. I've used this setup many times with no issues. I took the drive to my home PC which is a self built running XP Pro. I do remember when I plugged the drive in to the Dell it started the Auto Play...

    HELP.....External drive error says "drive needs to be formatted"

    Tried using Recuva and it won't scan it. It says "Data error (cyclic redundancy check)". I've got to run out for a little while, but when I get back I'll get back on it. Thanks for your help so far. Dwayne

    HELP.....External drive error says "drive needs to be formatted"

    I bought an external drive enclosure so I could take my SATA drive out of my desktop and use it as an external drive. I bought a new Siig JU-SA0612-S1 USB/eSATA external drive enclosure. I removed my HDD from my desktop and installed it in the Siig. It worked. I tried it on 3 different...

    If you're gonna be singing live, it would be good to learn the technique that Steenaroo mentioned.

    Help! What Should I buy?

    Can you post a sample of the noise? Is the noise in every track that you record? What microphone are you using?

    live band recording ... help please!

    What is your budget if you decide to buy more gear? If it's not very big, then it might be better to save for a little while to get something that's really going to make a difference. And using a mic on the guitar amps would be better (in my opinion) than using the headphone outs from the...

    Compression before of after recording

    Ummm......yeah. I think I misunderstood the question, too. I was thinking he was asking about recording a Strat DI into an interface and either recording with a compressor or adding a compressor when mixing. My bad. I tend to think that this: guitar > compression pedal > effects stomp...

    DMB Crash Album Best Mix Ever?

    Well I am a huge DMB fan. I relate to the lyrics, the acoustic guitar/jam band and freaking killer drums. #41 is probably my all-time favorite and the album Dave & Tim Reynolds: Live at Luther College is awesome. So yeah, I would agree that Crash is very well mixed. I'm also a huge fan of...

    Compression before of after recording

    But, theoretically speaking there should be no difference in using a compressor before or after assuming that you use the exact same compressor & settings. Right??

    Wireless Pedal Board

    Man that's cool. Even though I still don't fully understand exactly what's going on.......which probably adds to the coolness of it all. :)

    Not wanting to use computer recording, what else do I need to use these models?

    From everything that I've read, the Alesis HD24 is absolutely rock solid and sounds great. Sooooooo.................it makes perfect sense to me why people would prefer to use it rather than a computer and interface.

    Interfaces and Reliability Madness

    Just speaking for myself..... I've owned two Presonus Firepods, a Presonus Digimax, and a Presonus Firestudio (which I still have and use regularly) and I've never had a single problem with any of them.
