    Need drums.. Software recomendation?

    I'm a HUGE fan of Reason Drum Kits 2.0. But that would require an investment in Reason, and RDK2, not to mention learning Reason. Then again, Reason is a pretty handy software to know how to use!

    Who went to school for recording? Who hometaught themselves?

    Wow I'm really surprised to read that scathing review of SAE's theory portion. Glad I didn't go there! I'm at Metalworks in Ontario and the theory stuff has been great! Of course we do some really basic "this is a compressor, this is how it works" stuff that isn't all that new to me, but then...

    Digi 003-missing inputs in pro tools

    You should be able to create new i/o inputs in the i/o dialog and then just click them in to be your line ins.

    Auto-Tune vs. Melodyne

    Melodyne is really cool. It takes your monophonic wave and plots it out on a piano roll. You can just grab syllables and move them around very dynamically. To my ears, there are less artifacts, and its very easy to use it to create complex harmonies. The only drawback I could see is that it...

    Anyone using a tablet as a mouse/pointing device?

    I've never actually seen someone use one as a pointing tool.. only as a drawing type thing. For constant use stuff like a mouse or trackball, aren't you picking up and putting down a pen constantly? Is there any slowdown because of this (that can ulimately be made up for with its more...

    Anyone using a tablet as a mouse/pointing device?

    So it's basically like a giant notebook trackpad? I can see how that would be pretty cool. I'ma look into it!!!

    Anyone using a tablet as a mouse/pointing device?

    I just found out that my pro tools teacher at school uses a tablet as a pointing device. He is one of like 5 people in the world with all three digi 310 certifications and pretty retarded at pro tools. Wondering if anyone else is using these? If so, what kind? Recommend one to try out?

    Recording at 48000Hz??

    Well, that's sort of a different issue, isn't it? It's general fact that 20khz is the top of our hearing, but its closer to 16.5 for most men, and 17.5 for most women. 44.1 reproduces 22.050 and down right? So if people can hear a difference between 44.1 and 88.2, wouldn't that mean that it...

    Recording at 48000Hz??

    Hmmmm. I read that whole article. The math is WAY over my head! Aside from the math, which I'm sure could be convincing if I understood it, both camps make convincing arguments. What I said in my posts was what I was taught in school, and made sense to me, but now I'm on the fence!! Good...

    Recording at 48000Hz??

    Well, rather then just insulting me, why not shed some light on the subject? I'm willing to listen to what you have to say!

    Recording at 48000Hz??

    Yup. Once you lose that info by not sampling it, its not coming back!

    Recording at 48000Hz??

    Well, first off, by definition, digital isn't 100% accurate. Your converters need to see 2 points to convert audio without aliasing, but that is different from the sort of sonic accuracy that we are talking about here. At 48k, if you were to record a 24k sine wave, you would get two points for...

    Recording at 48000Hz??

    Yes, we only hear to 20k (more like 16k for most of us, even with healthy ears). But when we move up to 96k, you give your converters that many more samples to capture shorter wavelength (higher frequency) information. So you'll get a much more accurate high end. 44.1 and 48 sound fine (great...

    Recording at 48000Hz??

    Higher samplerates add more detail to your audio, but its especially noticeable in the high end. I can hear a difference between all the samplerates up to 96k, and so should anybody with relatively healthy hearing. After this, the change is too subtle for our ears to notice. To say there is...

    Best DRUM software plug-ins or stand alone

    I love reason with rdk2. Then again, I've been using reason for years and it was the first program that I really learned midi in. I can see how it would have a big learning curve due to the fact that it is completely different from all other programs. On the other hand, you have great...

    Who went to school for recording? Who hometaught themselves?

    Here's the thing guys... Like someone else said, getting into the "music industry" and making a shitload of cash producing or engineering records is about as likely as breaking into the NBA out of high school, or at all for that matter. There is a TON of work in alternative media. The problem...

    Need Help!

    Do you have protools open AND reason open when you're trying to switch to the mbox? I'm not sure, but it seems like you probably wouldn't be allowed to do that for some reason. OR See what happens if you run Reason in rewire mode (open protools, create an aux track, put a reason insert plugin...

    Free rtas spectrum analyzer?

    Yes, I know what to look for. Since moving and setting up in my new room, I'm experiencing a bit less low end than usual. Just want to see what exactly I'm missing.
