Yes and I think what looks like the ease of setting up auto punch in and out points either by time selection or item will make this doable for me. I will be doing some serious looking at interfaces. I think I need one with very low round trip latency as I need to hear what I am singing with...

I did a little more research and I think Reaper has some pretty slick auto punch features, I might just be able to make this work. This would be my last step in laving the porta studio behind and moving into the computer recording and mixing world. Now to choose an inter face. Here we go.

Okay , right now I track on a 2488 and mix on a computer with Reaper. The only thing stopping me from recording on the computer right now is I am my own engineer and performer. When singing I do several entire takes and often punch in sections when I think I can do better. It can be as much as a...

I'm considering buying a DP24SD for tracking and I mix on a computer in Reaper. What would the best/easiest way to transfer the audio files from the DP24SD into Reaper DAW. Thanks,

I'm looking mostly to record my own voice, male generic, mostly country/pop covers of 70's 80's 90's songs. no screaming shouting rapping etc. Everything on the country side from Eagles, George Strait, Charlie Rich Kenny Rogers etc to some old pop /standards like Engelbert, Sinatra, Billy Joel...

Anyone used this, Thoughts mainly for male vocals and maybe acoustic guitars. Thanks

Am I missing something, I thought I owned the license to all of the plugin's I have purchased forever. The current versions that is, Now if they update a plugin then is it not my choice if I want to pay for the new version or not? I would be very angry if a year from now I got an email saying I...

It's on sale for 99.00 Id rather get it for 49 or 29 but with Waves you just never know, They have had killer deals on most plugins this summer. I've already dropped 1850.00 on plugins I could not pass up. I probably own 75% of what they have. My luck is I buy it at 99.00 and in 2 weeks it's 49...

Anyone here use the Waves WLM PLus plugin, How do you like it;

Yes I do have the C6 and the full complement of the L series, L1, L2, L3 including the L3-16 multimaximizer. I've been working with the C4 on tracks and the master buss along with the L2Ultramaximizer on the master buss just because they are a little less complicated. Yesterday I applied high...

I read an article a while back, written by some guy who has recorded, mixed and mastered with some of the biggest names. He went on to say how they sold over 10 million + records of a recording done on equipment that was totally inferior by most pro standards but because the MOST important...

Right now I am experimenting with some Waves mulitband compressors, C4, C6. Trying to learn them inside and out. I've heard they can do wonders but also screw things up badly if used improperly. Think that is true of most plugins. Also to complicate things I usually am working with stereo...

All great advice, I'm kind of with and shooting for Alan's perspective, or trying to get as close as I can with what I have to work with. My problem [ and everyone else's] is that 10 to 15 years ago CD's were the standard. Car radios, boom boxes, home stereo's etc. Back then people used to say...

I think I have one from waves but I've never used it.Maybe I should.

Guys I have pretty good control; over most of my mix with the exception of the bottom end frequencies. Bass guitar, kick drum etc. They sound really pretty good on my 3 sets of monitors and in My car but really break up things like desktop computer speaker. I'm trying apples to apples...

Yes i guess I did kind of answer my own question I was just wondering if anyone else was doing this and has any tips/tricks in dealing with these pre-recorded tracks. I guess it's kind of like remastering the stereo music track, tweeking, enhancing etc. Then getting the vocal to lay in there...

One of my fun projects to to look for prerecorded music tracks be it karaoke or backing tracks that are of high enough quality to work with and then cut the vocal tracks and re mix. I have had mixed results, only done 2 so far and the first one turned out really good and second one is burning...

Great and much appreciated replies. All valid. I will keep working with them and try to break them in and learn their personality. I smiled at the typical smile curve equalizing reference. I have been guilty of that setting myself and frankly many sound systems sound best with that curve. I...

I'm hoping that it is just an adjustment phase, and that I will be happy with them after I get used to them. I mainly was wondering if others experienced this or if most people see their monitor upgrades as an "ah ha" moment right out of the box at first listen. I did not. I was not that...

The room is not acoustically treated, drywall walls, acoustic ceiling tiles, laminate floor covered mostly with rugs. I try to keep the volume down for this reason. I have always found the whole reference monitor subject interesting and yet at the same time perplexing. The theory has always...
