    Noise Help

    Ok, I have been fiddlin' around with my audiophile and Here is something I noticed... The VU meters when my mixer is not on read at -80 when the mixer is on but all channels off, they read -60 It strikes me that this is probably not a good jump, but then agin my mixer is not exactly designed...

    Grrr...IRQ...Grrr

    I just realized my Video and Sound cards are sharing an IRQ. I hate you Bill...so very, very much...XP is offering no way to change this besides moving the card to a different slot...grr :mad: :mad: :mad: :eek:

    Best inexpensive soundcard for playing midi

    I know people don't much like creative cards, but the audigy or SBlive handle midi very well and support high quality sound fonts. Both have decent midi sounds built in and would serve your purpose. But brzilian is right about softsynths. Then it doesn't much matter what sound card you are...

    Computer + Mic woes

    The problem is most likely the onboard sound card, not mics or cords. In my experience most on-board sound is usually not much good for recording. If you have a separate sound card in your old comp and it worked, put it in the new one, if not then buy a new sound card. The Audiophile 2496 is...

    Associate Sound Card Only With Certain Apps in XP?

    I think the issues vary from game to game. It depends on how the developers for the game set up the games audio engine. I don't have a dedicated DAW yet and I play Far Cry on my system with no audio issues with my AP2496, but had some audio lag issues with Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow and...

    Yet Another Sound Card Poll

    The point is is that you are not recording with just the converters. You have pre-amps and cables and microphones etc. and all of these things will affect your recording performance regardless of an on-paper s/n ratio. Then you also have to realize that you are sticking those converters into...

    I want one!

    As far as I know, the Digidesign Digi 001 would probably be the low budget way to go for pro tools. http://www.digidesign.com/products/digi001/

    Beos & you

    About the hardware stuff...I have XP running beautifully on both my main machine (Athlon XP 2400+) and on my secondary (AMD K6-2 450 mhz). I can record on both (I use fast hard drives in both machines, and the only difference that I have noted is that my main machine handles effects much...

    Do you really buy that expensive recording software?

    It is a moral question though. Stealing is flat out wrong. Not that I haven't done it. And when I did it I was straight up wrong and i even felt bad for a few minutes until I realized "Bill" would never miss the money I couldn't spend. Sometimes I do wonder about the software prices...

    New Audiophile Snaps,Crackles, and Pops

    Does your motherboard have a Via chipset? My Audiophile did what you were describing on my old comp, pretty much because my motherboard had a Via chipset and audiophile doesn't much like it. Make sure you have the latest 3-in-1 drivers for your MOBO (If it is a Via chipset that is). Also I...

    "Sonar 3.0 sounds better" - Show us!

    Just for the record, I am still using Sonar 1 and I love it. I see no good reason to upgrade, except for the newer versions are cool, but cool does not feed my hungry belly...

    Audiophile + KT133

    SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET! Thanks to everyone for your advice on this. I finally got a clean recording at 24/44.1 by adding the 29beta driver. I don't know if this will carry through up to 96 khz, but I will not be recording that far above human ability to hear so I'm good. I am also going to...

    Audiophile + KT133

    I use SONAR primarily to record. My PC is already setup as a Standard PC, (No ACPI) and IRQ Steering is disabled. There are no hardware sharing resources. I am at my wits end with this. I have done all that I know to do.

    Audiophile + KT133

    OK, I got the patch and applied it. I also moved my card into the middle PCI slot. The problem did not go away. It is driving me crazy. Damn Via Technologies. Damn them. I probably have the one version of their chipset that can't be fixed. Factor in the fact that God hates me and you will...

    Audiophile + KT133

    I have now tried both .26 and .27 . . . I actually started with .27, and so I uninstalled and went with .26 That made it worse so I uninstalled and went back to .27 . . . What version of the Via 4in1 driver should I use? I have 4.46 now, the newest I could find. I honestly am wondering if...

    Audiophile + KT133

    OK, upping the buffer in the Delta Control Panel helped, but I still get snapcracklepop while recording. More help pleeease. I saw someone's post about WPCREDIT, but it is way over my head. I have no idea what to do with that program.

    Audiophile + KT133

    I just got the Audiophile, but when I record it has the horrible jittering. This is my system: AMD Athlon 900mhz 448 megs RAM MOBO Chipset : Via KT133 XP Pro I really need some sort of guide or faq to tell me how to get this setup to work. I have installed the newest 4in1 drivers, and the...

    New Soundcard

    Which breakout box would I get for the C-Port? It looks to me like I would pretty much need to buy a second C-Port setup. What I really need is just a few additional input. I am wondering if I couldn't just find a DAC/ADC converter in some form or other that would allow me to use the optical...

    New Soundcard

    OK, so I'm finally going to actually pick up a decent soundcard. Right now I am planning on getting the Delta 1010, although there is still time and I am keeping the C-Port in mind. My question is, where is the best place to buy one(Delta1010) online? On musicians friend they are going for...
