1. Dont worry about voltage. Mics require 12-48volts (some are pickier than others but that's usually higher-end mics) but they only require a couple of milliamps of current so stepping up the voltage is not a problem.

It's all subjective as to what's easier for you (just like with audio daws). I prefer Sony Vegas Studio. It's cheap ($50 or less on sale), powerful with plenty of effects and you can use your audio vst's. I've used it to do music videos, commercial videos, multi-camera plays and airshows.

Download Reaper. (the 'demo' is fully functional) See if it works there. If it does, something is wrong with Cubase or its configuration (you probably dont have the vst where it can find it) If it doesn't work in Reaper then soemthing is wrong with the installation of Halion. You have to...

zip files have nothing to do with sampling, that's just a way of storing files together. what you will need is a sampler vsti to use in your daw Try: TX16Wx Software Sampler (yes Cubase, Reaper or any other vst-capable sequencer can use it). It's free, powerful and fairly easy to use (drag...

Audacity. It's free and you should install it as a .wav editor anyway....

Spend $40 or so and get Sony Vegas Studio. It's easy, it WORKS, it's cheap.

You won't gain anything by uninstalling them, unless you are short of disk space. Leave it, you may find use for them some day...

I switched over to an iMac a couple of years ago. I use Reaper,same as I used on my Windows DAW, and it's just fine with mac vst's (be aware you cannot use PowerPC or windows vst's on an Intel Mac...) I use a couple of outboard firewire drives and the same Motu828mkII I used on my previous...

If you are easily distracted by options and buttons, maybe you just need a simpler daw. Garageband on the Mac, or on Windows either Mixcraft or Sony Acid Music Studio (both under $60). Keep stuff simple and learn to ignore shiny things.

That's what that little wheel is for...

Any modern DAW. As long as your soundcard has separate channels, you're golden (beware, some usb mixers only pass a stereo pair, not separate channels.) Look at REAPER; cheap, easy and powerful.

throwing up your hands and reformatting every time your computer slows down is not a solution. you need to find out what the problem is. sounds like you need some windows tech help. sampletank directories can be moved and changed via the sampletank preferences pointing to the library menu. look...

Another reason you should browse through the 'Classic Tracks' over at Sound-on-Sound magazine; they have details on old recording techniques: CLASSIC TRACKS: 10cc 'I'm Not In Love'

I use a small Beheringer mixer. Plug the mics into the mixer and then run the outputs of the mixer to a stereo Y cable into my camera. Works great.

by the way, monoprice has one for $65.

M-audio keystation usb 49 I've used one for 4 years with zero problems.

Band in a Box from pgmusic.com

Those mics are just stage props, guys....

no. sound-on-sound magazine did an in-depth investigation into connectors a few years back and determined that xlr's and trs's have virtually the same contact area and resistance. even rca's aren't too far behind. they just suggested that we should stay away from 1/8" plugs whenever we can as...

Are you using the onboard soundcard???? If so THAT'S your problem, not midi.
