    soundcard question

    Recording-wise, it is best to stay away from any soundblaster cards. They are simply not made for it. My old SB Live was great for recording when I was getting my feet wet but it didn't take long for me to outgrow that and move into an Audiophile 2496. I've been using it for over a year and I...

    recording static

    Odds are the static is coming from the cheap preamp on your soundcard and/or the convertors on your sound card. Take a look at the M-Audio Audiophile 2496 soundcard to replace the one that came with your PC and pick and Audiobuddy from the same company that will act as your preamp. The...

    Soundcard with preamps or separate preamp?

    Can't really go wrong with the 2496. I've been using it for a year now with no problems. The 1010lt is cool but if you don't need that much I/O save the money to buy other cool stuff.

    Can't Launch Logic Audio!

    I would try uninstalling Logic, reinstalling the drivers for your interface, and then installing Logic again before doing an entire wipe of your computer...It won't take nearly as long and may solve your problem...

    looping software

    I never did find a tutorial, but it is way easier to use than it looks at first glance. I learned everything I needed to know in a few hours of screwing around, right-clicking and so on. I use it for creating drum loops that I export as acidized .wav into cakewalk sonar. It works great. Try...

    Newbie with some souncard questions

    First off, I believe you get good results. When I first started recording on my PC I used a computer mic and got much better results than were typical for that kind of setup. As far as soundcards go, the Audiophile 2496 is the way to go...

    looping software

    Fruity Loops (FL Studio) is the easiest loop creation software I have ever used. You can very easily save your loops as acidized .wav files that should work with GT.

    Band Name Legal Rights?

    From what I understand, a band name is akin to a business name and if you don't trademark it, it has very little protection.

    Building a dedicated system

    Also keep in mind you need an OS (Windows XP preferably $100.00ish) and some good recording software (The Usual Suspects; Sonar, Cubase, Logic, Audition, N-Track, etc.). For software SONAR is amazing and you can get SONAR 3 at around $300.00 or even less if you look around the net. If you need...

    Mac or PC?

    Oh boy. Another mac or PC debate. Well, here goes. As far as stability goes, PC's can be as stable as Macs, but not all PC's are created equal so if you go for PC be wary of who you buy from and if at all possible build your own JUST for recording. One of the great things about Mac's is...

    Sonar 4 - To upgrade or not to upgrade. That is the question.

    Transporting audio files from Cakewalk to Protools..Urgent Help!!!

    Quick and dirty way is to use the mixdown function on each track seperately, this will give you a wav file for each track that will line up perfectly if you start them all at the beginning of the song in protools.
