Well, thanks for the comments so far. What I need is to be able to record a minimum of 8-10 tracks simultaneously, to record the drums well. I dont HAVE to have 10, but I thought if I could get 10 that would be cool cause the guitar player will be playing along with the drummer anyway, I...

Thanks guys! I should explain that I was challenged by some friends to see if I could do any instrumental pieces that would fit as the intro/outro to an imaginary TV show. Those were efforts along those lines, although I had to trim a bit to get to those lengths. Dante's Inferno (Dante being...

My band is opting to take our meager savings from gig earnings and spend it on a good soundcard to do our own recording. They are leaning on me quite a bit to set it all up since I have the most home-recording experiance in the group. We are going to get a card with 24/96 capability and at...

I have heard some people say that NTFS is slower for audio, but I have never actually seen any official documentation from any software or MS about it. I used FAT32 for a while, but when I got my 30 and 60 gig drives, I switched to NTFS and found no difference whatsoever. If there is one, I...

While all these hardware suggestions are good, there are numerous software issues which can cause lockups as well. Certain versions of Windows (95,98,ME) are notoriously unstable while others (2000, XP) are very stable. My point is, what OS are you running? What software are you running in...

Check out this tune please...I really am digging the mood... It's called "The Dark Conflcit" http://www.nowhereradio.com/artists/album.php?aid=1437&alid=-1 Later

I have the infamous SoundBlaster Live on my DAW. With care, it produces some fine recordings, but no better that 16/48 can produce. *sigh*

I have been using the SBLive (extigy/audigy is next generation of SBLive) and I have to say, while my end results have been good, the hellish nightmare of making the damn card work right has made it impractical to use. If you want great midi, OK audio, and can deal with Creative's crap, get it...

OK, I went with the maxtor 60 Gb 7200. Best Buy was selling it for 30 buck less than the equivalent WD and it has equal perfomance, according to all the info I could find on it. Needed more space anyway. I may be switching to a 2 drive config later, but one has worked fine so far. Thanks for...

My hdd just had a massive coronary and died. (I have fully confirmed it, there is no recovering the data short of going to a forensics lab and having the actual disk removed, and even then, iffy). And I must buy a new one. I am undecided between WD and Maxtor. The WD's cost more, but I've...

Man, I really like that mix. It sounded smooth and pretty clear. I have no guess on the mic, but my only advice is you work on the acoustic eq a bit, and draw down the highs a little. Great song, great mix.

There are about a zillion things that can cause 98 to crash. My best advice is upgrade to 2000 or XP Pro. Barring that, make sure your not running alot of stuff in your background. Go to Start>Run and type msconfig and then hit enter. Go to the startup tab and uncheck all un-needed crap...

I understand the difference between 24 and 16, but what about the difference between 44.1 and 96? I have never seen anyone address why quality is better when your sampling is that high.

Yeah, there is an option usually called "What U hear" that is sometimes checked in you windows mixer. Also, as far as changing your midi drums, are you using Live Synth Pro or your Audigy for Soundfonts, because there are different instructions for both. There are fairly detailed instructions...

It really just depends on what you want. If you don't mind the tap hiss, the rewinding, and other hassles that go along with an anlog four track, go for it. But, if you want to eliminate that hiss, and be able to work audio wonders with punch in and moving things around and so on, you need to...

I've only talked to one guy on this board (or anywhere who has used the hoontech card. Most people seem to think its better to spend a little more for the Audiophile and have guaranteed quality. You can read that dude's (Oysterman) opinion of his dsp24ve here towards the bottom of the thread...

Dude, I don't think Bruce was trying to have a pissin' contest, he was just trying to help you out and possibly stop you from doing something that would be time consuming and of little or no value. If you weren't goin to anyway, fine. No harm done, let's all just chill and have some Kool-aid...:D

Also, on the fader window, look for the "update" button. The default setting is down. If you push it, it will turn off and your faders wont move or nothing no more less you tell em to... Edit The button looks like a fader...right next to the little camera...

Goooood Idea..... :cool:

That's pretty much my life philosophy.:D
