Always nice to get a happy ending, thanks for the update.

Oddly, they do actually have copyright legislation. They just routinely ignore it. I had a few useful products, then tried to order more and they had crossed a line, breaking one of their own laws. Our frequencies in the UK happen to be used by their military. The factory was banned from...

In radio frequency circuits, the correct impedance is vital, but in audio frequency use, im not sure any of my test gear could detect the difference. In digital audio, the key feature is not voltage, its not rounding off the edges of square waves. I would guess your generator is 50 ohm output...

The snag is some MIDI devices take the MIDI in into the processor and there do the integration and splitting. A sort of software switch - usually on device that allow changes to what is sent to the MIDI thru, to make it a sort of MIDI out/thru combination. Filtering program changes, or limiting...

I'm not quite certain what you want? You want somebody to convert them to mp3's? That's easy. Are you certain whatever you used for the video editing does not have mp3 as an option for the exporting? The apps I use can output mp4, plenty of video formats AND mp3? Soundcloud just requires you...

A switcher would work fine if that is what you need. Midi thru was just how it worked. My racks never get turned off. If you have lots of midi gear, it was normal to use proper midi distribution. M-audio made some great devices. I have two 8x8 units, which appear in windows as sources and...

I suppose much depends on what the walls of the studio - not the partition - are made of. Isolation comes from mass and a gap. No point at all in over engineering the partition between two spaces, if the sound can leak out and back in through a poor external wall? Assuming the existing space...

I've been reviewing cheap to expensive mics for a long time on youtube, and have come to some major conclusions. Price has hardly anything to do with sound quality. They all sound different. Some are clinical but others warm. Some hear things others don't and others seem to work better on...

This is NOT good. The mixer you have has an internal power supply, so wall wart failure is out of the question. There are two basic paths now. The mixer is faulty. To be honest, with A&H it is unlikely. The test is a simple one. Mixer and headphones =hum with nothing else connected, so take it...

ECC and MC are on different sides of a fence. I do understand both viewpoints, but the real issue here is that somebody has a problem, and the suggestions to fix it are being rejected. MC's comment on not knowing what to do with it is a fair one I think. Many people just do not have the...

The plots are not really 'techy' - they're just a left to right display of frequency, with amplitude on the vertical scale - 20-20K, the full audio spectrum. There is a hum at 100Hz, and another just above 150Hz - usual UK mains hum as was mentioned in the topic earlier is 50Hz, but the first...

400 euros is in my opinion, far too much money for a product like this - it could work, but if it does, how long for. If, like ECC83, you have the skills to fix it when things die, it could be fine - but looking at my pile of old repairs waiting, even I don't want to buy any more old kit.

I had a device that used Dsub connector fanouts and they were crazy prices!

Have a look at this topic. Sweetbeats has been doing M520 topics for a very long time - the linked topic is pretty much everything you need to know about buying one. As to the idea of you connecting one to your three grand interface? Well, you can of course, but what are you really hoping will...

A guitar cable is a great way to work out routing. Plug it into any input and tap the tip and you should see or hear buzz. Silly question. Does any input produce audio at the output? If the answer is no, you have to fix that first. You mentioned guitar and distortion? Is that plugging the guitar...

Single coil pickups, by their design, convert electro-magnetic energy into electrical energy. Those little, subtle, wobbles of your strings, wibbling about in the field of your tiny little magnets. When we had real tubes in our computer monitors, it was pretty bad, and of course, close. It got...

USB instruments and keyboards, even controller keyboards always need drivers for windows. Windows 11 requires certain features on your computer - I bought a new one rather than have to put in new motherboard and other odds and ends. Cubase is on version 14 and it works fine on Windows 10. If it...

Almost certainly not. The thing with interference is that it drops of VERY quickly with distance due to the inverse square law. double the distance and the interference drops to ¼! double again and it's a 1/16 of what it was. If the quality and volume of the hum changes as you spin through 360...

First thing is internal soundcards are pretty much gone, everyone is using external ones now as it really doesn't matter if you use desktops or laptops. Please do take this the wrong way, but rereading your posts, there are warning bells. You have verey common hardware and software. You are...

No joke - I reviewed a mic once and never realised it was side-fire, despite looking like an AKG C1000! I moaned about the thin and a bit weak sound!
