    Aardvark Q10, manipulating the frequency

    I run http://asg.hopto.org and I've never noticed any cutoff... usually it's the mic that messes with that as most drop off fast at 18khz ... except dynamics which drop off at around 15khz... I recorded a DV feature movie last year and highend reproduction was great ...especially because I used...

    new recording enthusiast!

    I think a very important skill that a lot of us skip is learning how to read equipment specs and knowing what they don't mean. :) I really like this site: - previously known as "Studio Covers" http://www.theprojectstudiohandbook.com/directory.htm

    Can't achieve studio quality...

    Audix i5: Frequency Range 50 Hz - 16 kHz if you're looking to improve brightness then you need a mic that is flat past 20khz... even my Rodes don't do this... I use a small diaphram condenser (actually a shotgun mic) a Sennheiser ME66K6 because I have i laying around for video stuff... I think...

    Advice for a dude about to do his first concert....

    It's been a few years sence I performed seriously but... If allowed... (west coast bands have a problem with this for some reason) ... if you're not playing on stage then you're _all_ stilling at the merch table. You need atleast CD's and stickers. But the merch table is where you make the...

    Mac vs. Pc

    If Macs ran a proper X server I probably would buy one... I might buy an old one or a mini and put linux on it... I just prefer linux. Macs Aqua GUI just sucks... Getting proper tech suppoer is a pain too... $50 for phone support or ask a Mac Genius who doesn't know squat... eMacs are the...

    Ardour: Anyone using it for a real projects?

    I was able to get cinelerra working on DeMuDi 1.3.0RC1 ...and burning a DVD this way: http://sanctuary.indieshare.com/viewtopic.php?t=4252 If I recall cinelerra has no Jack support which makes it suck for audio :) but it uses the usual LADSPA plugins

    Ahhh...Hard Drive problems I think...Help...

    I would back it up... but basicaly if it's making odd noises then it already has crashed. If you get CRC errors then you have platter damage. The drive being slow is usually a sign of sectors going bad and the drive being massivly fragmented due to it rewriting data everywhere. Basic odd...

    Clicking is very bad....There are a couple things. I used to use R-Studio for NTFS recovery... I assume it could make an image and then recover off that...(thats the right way) OR there is a program called CDcheck: http://www.elpros.si/CDCheck/ It will read bad sectors multiple times and...

    how do we get our stuff to digital?

    knowning what sort of reel it is is sorta important... you would need a studio that has a digial recording ability (which most should have by now) and a tape player for whatever type of tape you have. Then they would record each track to computer ... a "real" studio should be able to do them...

    I was copying and storing huge video files ...the lab guys said that copying massive ammounts of data can stress the drive as it is only doing one thing or a very long time. I went through 4 drives since last july.
