    Stereo Expander

    Hey Mixies, Just need some input on stereo expanding. I like to use this as a master track effect. It makes my songs , well sound cooler. The thing is it can change a mix quite a bit with regard to the volume of panned instruments. so I need it on while mixing. If I mix first then just add it...

    What hardware do you use

    I use a Tascam US122 with cubase, and it works great. Doesn't protools come with hardware? As I understood it, protools only works with the hardware it comes with, and that hardware won't work with other software. Correct me if I am wrong, as I know little about protools. UTSMAn

    Clicks at Start of Audio

    Hey Cubies, 2 questions really Firstly I need some help with clicks. When I import a wav file from fruity loops into cubase, sometimes there are clicks as the audio starts and finishes.

    hip hop and cubase please help

    Hey Nashunbooking, Don't know heaps about hip-hop, but 2 programs that come to mind are Reason and Fruity Loops. Reason is probably the better program but is set-up like a virtual mixing studio and is harder to use. Fruity loops is very user friendly in a drag and drop kind of way. I use it to...

    Getting the Bass right

    I know exactly how you feel. I go through the same thing all the time. I still haven't got it fully dialed but my advice is comparison. Get a commercial cd of similar style that you would like your mix to sound close to. OPen a song from it in some media player and set the volume to match your...

    us 122 mic pre quality

    Very Clean Pre's, but lack a bit of punch for guitar I think. If you are micing the guitar - crank it. If you are DI ing the guitar use an amp first then preamp out to tascam. That works well for me. Over all though I am very happy with my US122, I certainly recommend one. Though this is an...

    hooking electric guitar into tascam us-122

    I would suggest using the line out and not the headphone jack. This would not make it not work though,

    Cutting in close

    Hey Cubies, a problem my cousin is having. When he tries to cut a piece of audio with the scissors, it will only cut at an increment, not anywhere in between. I hope you know what I mean. Along the top of the tracking window there are little bars. He can only cut on one of those bars. For me I...

    Error when exporting

    I had a similar problem, Don't know if it is the same but I wasn't setting the left and right locaters properly. When you do this. set the left locater, then drag it to the end of the song to set the right. There should be a blue line in between the locaters. When mine wasn't working the line...

    Mixing on Home stereo speakers?

    I also mix on home stereo speakers. I think the key is comparison. Find a commercial cd that you are aiming to mix like - same style of music etc. Play it through your speakers and hear how it sounds. This gives you an idea of , for example if your system is weak on bass. Then you will know to...

    Anyone High passing their bass

    I have heard from some of you muso dudes that you need to cut of bass guitar below 60 - 100 hz(depending on bass and pre amps) because those low frequencies can mud up the bottom end. I can't tell the difference except I must turn up the fader if I do cut them off.I suppose it depends on the...
