    Can I link a Delta 410 and a Delta 1010LT?

    You can use any 4 Delta series cards at one time.

    remove speaker, insert plexiglass

    That's it. But without the hole for the microphone. I hope they don't mind if I bring my drill... I think I'm going to have to run a few tests to see what going to work the best before the show. I have only 1 take to get it right.

    need help choosing soundcard.....

    You could use a 24 track MOTU, or multiple Delta 1010's (you can use up to 4 at a time). I'm not sure about the Terratec units as far a using more than one at a time, but M-audio seems to do it well. A cheaper alternative would be something like the Delta 410. Each card has 4 inputs and 10...

    I'm recording a live performance. The plus side is that I have the option to use up to 24 tracks.

    remove speaker, insert plexiglass

    Here's an interesting one... I'm recording a live jazz band that has 2 trumpets. The problem is that they usually play facing something like a sheetmusic stand covered in plexiglass. The reflection from the plastic is what the players use instead of monitors to hear themselves over the rest...

    My Audiophile 2496 Still Won't Record!

    As far as uninstalling drivers from the old card, it's usually not necessary. The accepted method is to reboot the computer with no sound card in it once. The operating system should realize that something is missing and adjust itself accordingly. Then, when you plug in the new card, it...

    vocal effect

    After reading the above mentioned Sound On Sound artical, I'm a bit curious. They say that everything was recorded into Cubase VST with a G3 Mac except for the vocals,which were recorded onto 3 DA88s and then transferred to Cubase. 1. Why track it to the Tascams in the first place? Security...

    Poll: Would You Buy A Dual Mono RNC?

    Get FMR to send you a power supply from an RNP and splice in another plug on its' output. From what I've read, the RNP wall wart powerful enough for 2 RNCs, although I haven't seen the power requirements for the RNC yet so I could be mistaken. Maybe someone who owns one could take a peek at...

    Do you really live in that house? I'm not to far from there. Man, is that place spooky or what?

    monitoring on the cheap

    If you are tracking, you can use the Radio Shack splitter and run 2 sets of headphones. Don't worry about their quality. More important is that they are of the 'closed' variety. You don't want the sound from the headphones leaking (bleeding) into the signal you're trying to record. As for...

    SBLive or Cobra AW-850? Did I get ripped off?

    You got shafted. MIDI inputs do not accept any type of input besides MIDI data. Multitimbral or polyphonic voices are synthesizer terms. It has nothing to do with recording quality. Bring it back. And while you're at it, make sure you go to the store when it's busy. That way when you start...

    My Audiophile 2496 Still Won't Record!

    A couple questions. What operating system? Can you monitor the input or are the inputs not working at all? Are you using the analog or digital inputs? What outputs are you using? What recording software are you using?

    Harmonic Distortion ?

    Basically, harmonic distortion is the noise that every piece of gear in the audio chain produces. It's refered to as a percentage of the incoming signal. When you read .02% THD it means that .02% of the outgoing signal wasn't present at the input. THD is a bad thing, but most of today's gear...

    Problem with my Delta 44

    Unplug all if the cables and record a blank track, If you still hear noise, it's not cable related. What operating system are you using? There are tons of tweaks available for all of them. How much memory do you have? This is something that recording software uses like it's going out of...

    Recording real drums with Audiophile

    Good idea ted. The key is to use a click track while you're doing it and hope that your drummer has good timing. He'll have to play the same song a few times exactly the same (or really close) for it to line up right but unless you use an external mixer (which will not let you mex the tracks...

    Dual CPU Support

    no. The software has to be specifically written for dual processors. It will work just fine if it isn't, but you won't get the performance increase you'rel looking for if it's not. I'm not sure about Samplitude, but I am pretty sure that Sonar supports dual processors. On a somewhat related...

    electric guitar sounds like its in a tin can

    I downloaded those 2 files and played around a bit. There is a phase issure there but it's not consistant over the entire frequency range. I got some decent results using a tiny bit of delay on 1 track. Try recording the same thing but move one of the mics 1/2 inch closer or farther away...

    Home studio advice - Help

    The extra hard drive is always a good idea. It may not be necessary, but at the prices they are selling for, it's just something else you don't have to worry about. Also, most recording programs will incluse some sort of processing ability (compressions, EQs, etc...) This might be something...
