Not sure where else to post this so... I've got a Tascam Portastudio 424 - original version and a Delta 44. What I'd like to do is this... Record to both the Tascam and the computer at the same time, For up to 8 tracks at once. Then tranfer the Tascam tracks to the computer. I don't mind...

Thanks for the info... The band is a Punk/Metal band So I'm not sure that they would suit all that well. Also... does anyone have any samples of Roto-Toms I can listen to... I don't think I've ever heard one (Knowingly)

So can anyone tell me what good it would be To have only roto-toms on a drum kit? They should be used in conjuntion with real toms shouldn't they? Not just by themselves? My drummer is looking at a kit (he hasn't seen it yet) But the ad says roto-toms (leading me to believe there are no real...

Easiest way would be to export the Audio Mixdown when you've got it all set up. Then import that back into the project.

What do you want to record? The MIDI output or the Audio Output?

You beat me to it Farview.

I'm confused about what exactly your question is.

Does anyone know anything about these drums??? http://www.milwaukeedrums.com/craftsman.htm $600 for a 9-ply All Birch 5 Piece Set? Seems like a great deal to me. But I don't know much. And, also, I'm having trouble finding any info online about these guys.

I suppose I could try that... Good thing my drummer doesn't particularly care what I do his set As long as he can still play it. Thanks for the tips man.

Let's see... Mine is a No Name (Soundsource, if you want to get technical, haha) 22" 8 Lug with a Remo Powerstroke 3 Batter Head. The front, when it is used, is the stock head with an off-center hole... Not sure of the size of it though.

No it's a 22" The pillow may not be making enough contact... I dunno. That style of playing isn't the normal style played on the kit... I'm not a drummer so I just do simple fairly low velocity playing. My drummer has a lot more velocity than I, And generally uses his double pedal like there...

Yeah, a pillow. This is a really crappy drumset as well. My drummer has beaten the crap out of it over the years. The resonance you are hearing is very likely the 13" Rack tom. The mounting hardware is crap... And the bottom head of the tom actually rests on the top of the kick. I'll go run...

There is no resonant head on the kick at this time... Could have something to do with it? Also the room is very small, thus very bad acoustically for drums.

That's what I was thinking is the difference too... I've heard some HRTF recordings And they seem to have great stereo imaging.

Yeah... It's the TapeOp mic... Is the kick really tuned that high??? I didn't think so, but I'll try tuning it lower.

Any one have any idea why my homemade Omni Condenser mic, 3 feet away from the kick drum sounds way better (IMO) Than actually using a kick mic? Here's a sample... http://www.fronder.com/bands/388/music.php "The mic I built..." I personally think it sounds great... anyone else have any thoughts?

Basically what I was thinking... If I can get my drummer to not move around so much while recording... Having him wear a pair of Omni Mics (using his head as a baffle) In order to get that stereo image if the drum set... Whether this will work or not... I dunno, but I think I'll try it. This...

Anyone around here ever try HRTF mic'ing? I was just reading about it and it seems interesting... I am building a couple Omni Condensers with help of an old Tape-Op article... And would like to try out this mic method... Any tips, if you've done it?

Just wondering what the take is on bilingual songs? I am writing one right now with verses in spanish and the chorus in english? In your opinion... could that work out ok? Thanks in advance.

I suggest heading down to your local CompUSA And getting any cheapo soundcard they have there. Yes it's good to test on as many systems as possible... Though I think you'd get the same effect By simply changing out the speakers on the Delta Rather than using a different soundcard.
