the zvex seek wah is what I want. I was wondering if anyone knew of an auto wah that were similar?

roachy, This statement is a slap-in-the-face. Things we need to know are: 1) your budget 2) what instruments you will be using 3) what you plan to achieve As you can tell from Mr R. and Mr G. we don't have a crystal ball. From your statement I don't think you realise the depth of...

Well, you can mix in software or you can mix on an actual mixer. In order to mix on an analog mixer you have to convert your digital tracks on your pc to analog signals. The onyx will only give you two channels of Digital to Analog conversion. You are covered on the a/d conversion with all...

This is why I have a mixer. Even if I did not mix out of the box I would still have a small format mixer. Hook up your monitors to the mixers control room outs. This way you could monitor your daw on one stereo channel and listen to Itunes from your computers soundcard output to another...

What he said.. There are some fundamental user problems here. I think there is a mix-up on recording levels and mix buss levels or mix monitoring levels.

Youtube beats are going to sound like garbage through anything. I advise using a sequencer from either a device (keyboard / workstation or Sampling device ex. AKAI) or software (ex. reason) and make them yourself. I presume you will be using a sequencer of some sort to generate the music. If...

Double post alert! On the last two Melvins albums they have added a second drummer. It sounds like they have panned one kit left and the other right. It is wicked bad. Dale G. is no slouch.

most everything @ 12:00. Best stereo field ever! seriously, its fun to just do a pan check on everything for the hell of it. You may discover the oompa loompa's. I will sometimes use some automation to pan bass g to one side and a single layer guitar the opposite side during a verse. Then...

If you are not doing live sound I would not buy a mixer unless I were going to use it for mixing. I understand that it has the firewire for A/D conversion, but it does not have 16 channels of D/A conversion. My answer would be both an interface and a mixer for mixing out of the box. I you know...

You have some fundamental things to buy. Monitors, A/D/A Conversion (at least two channels of I/O), and 2 mic pre's. If you are ever going to track and acoustic drum kit you will need more channels of a/d conversion and and mic pre;s. You could fill that budget in a hurry. I wouldn't skimp...

I think it depends on who's material your playing. I know under-the-radar artist are receptive of people covering there material and may even post it on there web site. The ones you would have to worry about are the mainstream gimps. As far as age I think it is 50 years and the artist is no...

If there was a good reason you would do that, I would use very minimal settings. Also you may try blending a wet with a dry buss. The dry being more up front of coarse. I have heard recordings that would use this technique but with a tremelo effect but only having the wet mix on one side.

I wish I had a dollar for evertime i heard that line. not to say you cant get good results without getting a loan. In your case I would definately look at some good mics first since you have mostly acoustic instruments. Next would be mic pre and converter. For mic'ing you piano you may want...

I know it does all 16 channels digital out and in. That is the reason for the price tag. I love the fact of mixing at the console analog without having to run 16 trs cables from a box to the console inputs and vice versa. I it also has the sub group routing. Probably some very usable eq at...

Am I the only one that hates the slap technique? Anyways there is a much wider dynamic range when people play this way. I have never delt with it myself. I allways hear that crap at the music store. Maybe a multiban compressor would help deal with this problem better to pin point the...

2nd that. I most people don't want to read that much info. You may need to address these things one at a time.

Most of us I believe are the band producer engineer all in one. So we can tolerate our self and mix as you go. If I were just the producer/engineer I would most likely lay all the tracks and tell the band to get out and go home so I can play.

One thing that would help is that you look at the block diagram of the mixer. This should be in the user manual.

yes. You could process a track at a time or 8 at once. you add new tracks in the daw so you could loop the raw tracks out of the DAW through your outboard gear and return back in. But you need to figure out the routing to do this.

The key word there is functionality. You have to realize also that there is a reason terminology and layout are different from one software package to another. If they were all the same someone would be out of buisness. My point is if you cant understand the fuctionality or you don't want...
