    Where do I start?

    how will you keep your timing? you will want to sync your timing with your software otherwise drum loops are useless. I would say use the metronome from your software or find a free drum loop to practice with. And play along with it. I would do that first until your ready to shell out more for a...

    how much did you spend on your Audigy? You could have a bought card more suited for recording for as much as that card costs. but the line in is a better choice as far as which input to use. what other gear do you have?

    my EMu 1820 lights up, but doesn't show up in patchmix DSP

    My 1820m did that the first time I installed it. When I installed it I smelled something burning. I thought I burned it. But it turned out it was my power supply. But my pc still worked it showed the audio dock was not connected. I unplugged some fans, and one of the DVD drives and a hard drive...

    So are you saying he needs to do video edit as well? Would he need a video editing program like adobe premiere, Sony Vegas, or Nuendo? Are you looking for budget gear like in the $500 range or are you willing to spend up to say $5000? Does he need high quality recordings or can he get by with...

    Mixdown Question

    Also check your VST plugins at the Master channel make sure the there are no plugins that will lower the volume or any plugins you are not aware of. Cubase by default has a plugin at the main channel.

And so on and so on. And complain “My PC is slow”. I’ve fixed a couple of PC’s where owner was...

    A question for EMU 1616(m) owners

    I’m an 1820m owner and it is a nice card. though many don’t like tha patchmix but I think its a great tool once you know how to use it. It's basically what it says it is . a virtual mixer with routing and everything. Now what would really be cool is a hardware that can actually control it...

    changing machines will not ensure problem free recording. If you cant trouble shoot it and fix it then it wont be any easier for you when a problem comes up with a mac.

    I found that a lot of sale stuff is B-stock and when they say over 60%off they are talking about suggested retail value. but the price is the same every where else.

    Using electrical cords as speaker wire

    since this cable has 3 wires can it be used for mic cables? I know orange is not a color you on stage.

    dual-cores, noise, features, price

    No I built my own. but as far as noise, you will get noise with pre built or not. also power supply noise a graphics card fans add to the noise too. So its not just the processor fan. but if its well vented then the noise level should be low. no problems with my X2

    Using electrical cords as speaker wire

    Well he said the single loss was that the wire was not copper so I was not as good a conductor. I guess he was really going cheap on the wireing. still he said it was not enough of a loss to cry about.

    dual-cores, noise, features, price

    I have a 3800+ X2. with multiprocessing turned on in Cubase I notice my VST performance meter drops about I would say35%. SO I would say a dual core is worth it.

    Using electrical cords as speaker wire

    I know this guy that has a live stage set up. I’ve noticed all his wires that go to the speaker were those orange extension cables with 1/4 heads added. I asked him why he used those. He said that they are the same gauge as speaker wire and that the cost per foot is far less than actual speaker...

    Presonus Firebox or E-MU 1212m + M-audio DMP3 pre

    you mentioned "Sonar 5 PE or Cubase SX3" are you asking which one to buy or that you purchased and own both. really I dont see why you would own both since they both do the same thing.
