Thanks Jaymz, BTW, that's MR-8 from Fostex. You are correct in assuming that I want to add more parts to my recordings with midi, however, I haven't ordered the MR-8 yet (or anything else untill I'm sure of my purchasing decisions). I've just been recording straight into my soundcard and...

Thanks Jaymz, BTW, that's MR-8 from Fostex. I'm still a little confused by this midi thing. I'm going to print out your reply and tack it to my bulletin board and read it several times a day and eventually, I'll get a grasp on it. I looked at the starter kit at the link in your reply on my...

I've about narrowed my decision down to these two products for a midi interface. Does anyone have any experience with either of these? Any suggestions for a comparable alternative? I just want to beef up some acoustic guitar/vocal tracks via midi keyboard/interface/sequencing sftwr. I'm I on the...

Any comments on Cubase SL 2.0? It suits my budget, and I am thinking about making a purchase. This will be a first time set-up me on MacG4. Anything comparable in price/quality? Thanks in advance.

Cool, I just wanted a little extra encouragement before I hit the 'Buy' button. It's time to purchase. What a long strange shopping trip it's been. Thanks!

That would be MR8 with Good Buttons. What's with all the button complaints? I was just ready to order MR8 and now I'm seeing all these posts about button malfunction. I'm so discouraged now. Should one in the 'shopping mode' look around for a Boss or Tascam or something else? Someone enlighten...

That's what I wanted to hear! You're the man, Dirty! Anything to save a buck.

Thanks for all the help guys. I'm tracking the Symetrix on Ebay now. T-rat, that sounds a little over my head at this point in my 'recording career' (although you made it sound so simple). I've ordered a Behringer UB802 for a mic preamp, it's a small mixer and I'll have some EQ control. Will...

Thanks KDG--I've been seriously considering the UB802 for a pre based on other recommendations. How about the ART studio tube- that UV meter seems to a handy feature and it's only 10$ more-any experience with that or knowledge of? Also, I can't find an MXL V67. MusiciansFriend.com has other...

Thanks Dirty, Where does one find a de-esser if one needs such. I was recommended a specific mic for my vocal style (deep) but was also recommended a de-esser to go along with it.

Ahem, what is 'sibilence' and what does 'de-ess' mean or what is a 'de-esser'? Thanks

I'm real new to this, in fact I haven't even gotten started yet. I'm setting up a fostex mr8 recording set-up for guitars and vox, but I also want to accompany this with some midi. I have a midi keyboard. The question is, how do I go from keyboard to computer? Is that where 'midi interface'...

Pulling together a first time set-up. Made most of my decisions already thanks to this forum. Mics and preamps are still a gray area for me however. Any suggestions for a good set-up that wont kill my budget? Been looking at 100-200$ mics and less for preamp, if possible. Also, I have a deep...

Trying to pull together a first-time digital recording set-up and I've about narrowed all my purchasing desicions down except for a preamp. Any suggestions on a decent, affordable unit. How about the ART tube MP studio preamp. Are these things any good, they sure are cheap? Any other preamps...

Why would someone start their thread with "newbie here!" when our questions usually speak for ourselves?-- Does vocal style have much influence on mic choice? For example, I have a deep voice with not much range (if I had a nickel for everytime someone said, "you sound just like Johnny Cash"...

Do any others (cubase, DP, sonar, others mentioned) require seperate hardware? Also-went to the free download page for ProTools and it's only available for mac os9. Are any of the above available for mac osX? (I hate to see 'classic mac crank open) Just trying to get a head start on my...

Why do I read and hear about ProTools being the all this and all that yet I can't find it anywhere? I've looked @ Musiciansfriend, Zzsounds and a few other places with no luck. There's not even a forum dedicated to it here! Where can one purchase this program, if it actually exists? What is a...

After lurking around here for a while, I've decided to order the mr8. While ordering I would like to go ahead and get some other goodies while I've got some extra $$. Hoping maybe some of ya'll can give me some direction. I'm looking for a basic 'start-up' thing. Here's what I want to do-...

Brand neewbie, posting first of probably many questions. I'm still in the shopping mode but am leaning hard towards the vf80. One question I have for now is what is the A.S.P. that is mentioned in the features along with improved effects. Forgive my ignorance if it's something obvious that I...
