That really looks cool, especially for the price. Unfortunately for me I couldn't find that on their US website.

Man, I can relate to that.

Yeah, I've thought about taking the left and right POD outputs and processing them separately, too. Unfortunately I can't do that right now. I'm still using the SB Live! sound card that came with the PC so I can't accomodate that third input. I tried using my 4-track as a mixer a few times...

OK Slack, I guess It's my turn to agree with you on this. I use the same setup, except I have a Dual MP. I like this combo better than either my ART or SABDDI by themselves, and they both sound pretty good by themselves. Another thing I just tried for kicks is recording two simultaneous bass...

I was lucky to have access to a friend's Princeton Reverb when I first learned to play in college, so that's what I used then. After graduating I played only my acoustic for about the next 15 years, when I played at all. I bought my first amp only a few years ago just for messing around in the...

RWhite, I agree with what you said, but I'll also second what hrn said. It's backing up GBs worth of data that I'm concerned about. In fact, in some ways I almost don't care if I have to rebuild the O/S from scratch after some kind of catastrophic failure. Yeah, it would suck having to take...

We took a look at them about a year aog for a unique kind of application at work about a year or so ago. I don't rememebr the numbers, but their price got them ruled out of contention immediately. They may not be any faster than modern IDE and SCSI disks, but they had no moving parts and were...

DATs possible, at least DDS-4 would let me put 40 GB on a single tape. They are expensive though, I thought a DDS-4 drive would cost me about $1200 - $1500, but then again I haven't had to buy one at work for a while. Just to get that kind of capacity I'd probably be willing to pay the $15-$20...

Yep, I have. But I found two reasons to wait, at least for now. One is that there are still competing standards so which formats should I try to support? At least I've finally seen a drive that supports DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, and DVD+RW, I just don't know how well it works. Also, for video...

I've thought about Ghost for taking care of my O/S once my current SystemWorks subscriptions expire. If I upgrade to SystemWorks Pro I'll get Ghost bundled with it. From what I read about it (still not too much) it seems like I could also use it to back up audio projects onto a few CDs...

I agree nubs. I manage about 10 TB of space across multiple Unix servers at work and understand RAID levels. However, my PC experience is limited to what I do at home and there a huge difference in my budget for my home network and my budget at work. :D Like Sean and I both said above...

That Nano looks - and sounds - really impressive. But $425 though. Ouch! I wonder if they sell a 0.05 W version for $42.50 (1/10 the power for 1/10 the price :D )?

erichenryus, I remember a while hearing about software that you could use to do something very similar to what you're doing. The idea is that you could create backup partitions and set things up so that changes to files in your working partitions get automatically backed up to the backup...

For a long time I was like most people, I did some occassional backups of my PCs for a while, then they became less regular, and finally they all but stopped. Lately I've gotten much better at doing backups on a regular basis (about monthly), but since I'm doing it on CD-Rs figuring out what...

Yeah, I'm probably better of with an internal disk like the special edition Western Digitals I was looking at. I'll just wait until the prices come down a little more and buy one for each of our home PCs. Then I'll see if my wife can pester her work to buy her an external disk for her laptop...

I understand it's intensive, but I'm also not looking to produce anything like sci-fi movies with a lot of effects. My real objective is just to take videotapes and put them onto VCD/SVCD/DVD. Maybe if I get creative and have the time to do it I could edit out the good parts onto compliation...

Nik, Here's a question I'm almost afraid to ask, given how often I do it myself, but how often and onto what medium do you back up your 120 GB drive? Backups are the main reason I don't want to use too large a drive so I really only want the secondary drive for working space, then I can...

Well it's ancient by today's standards but it's not THAT old. It will be two years old in April. The DVD-ROM is the original one I bought with it but I just replaced the old CD-RW drive to get one that had buffer under run protection. I understand the need to pick and choose capabilities, so...

In your original post you said throughput suffers putting your O/S and your audio disks on separate channels and t oinstead put them on the same one, master and slave. Your second one said it's best to keep your two drives on separate channels. I sent that reply before you posted the one about...

Uhhhhh, that sounds like it contradicts your previous post. :confused:
