have you tried a metronome?

I wasn't aware that one used 21'' CRT was better than another used 21'' CRT monitor. I guess it all depends on the condition. If it was me I'd get the one that had the best buttons on the bottom of the screen to control the contrast and stuff. I'd go with the Sony because Samsung is made in...

I hope somebody can help me out with this: The inputs on the Fostex PM0.4 monitoes have TRS and line 1/8'' connections. My Audiophile firewire has RCA L & R outputs. I'm pretty sure they dont make an RCA to TRS cable since on RCA jack is mono. Am I completely missing something on this? Just...

Cables could be part of the 300 but don't buy 300 dollars worth of cables. Unless cables are really causing you trouble like pops and hisses, you don't really need to replace them. If you get a better quality cable, do an A and B test to see if you can really notice the difference and I bet...

Adapters and cables. There may be other external soundcards that allow this but just keep looking. Also, since your preamp has two balanced outputs, I'm assuming you don't need to connect both at once.

I don't know if guitar center specifically will install pickups. I don't shop there much. Music stores will generally do it for around 25-30 dollars for one pickup.

Bingo! Skip mixcraft.

USB mixers mix down to stereo 2 track compared to a firewire mixer which can essentially do unlimited.

In Mixcraft can you actually select the soundcard? Or does it not even show up?

Not too familiar with Sonar 4 but I'm guessing you should use the tool that allows dynamic drawings on the tracks. Draw it to however long or short you want it.

Oh. There's also 4-pin and 6-pin types. 4 is noticably smaller than 6 pin. Make sure you know which one you have when purchasing although most products come with both, or none.

Well it should have a little picture next to the port. Or you could always go to google images and type in "firewire." Nevermind, I'll do it for you. http://images.google.com/images?q=firewire&hl=en

You are going to have to select what you want to record in your recording software. Use the control panel for selecting what you want monitored. Basically if you have sound, you shouldn't have to fool around in the control panel that much, maybe just some simple fine tuning.

What mics do you have exactly? 4 mics isn't a lot to run a studio with but I guess it could be done.

I don't presonally have the 2496 but I do have an M-Audio Firewire Audiophile which is the external firewire version of the 2496 I believe. With mine, I do not control the volume from the Windows sound properties. There should be drivers and software that came along with your card. After...

Video shoot as in music video or video shoot as in promotional material? And do they have to be muted for the sake of someone taling over them or they have to be muted just becuase the director doesn't want loud sounds? I say just shoot the thing and take out the sound later, it's a lot...

Read in a magazine somewhere that everything was done using a 4-track. I heard in an interview with a guy on the radio that they were always trying to find more effects to make it sound differently (like the guitars sound like sitars before they played sitars). I have no idea what specific...

Pad and rolloff aren't really necessary in the mic and they just give a mic like the SP B1 a chance to get ruined with a faulty switch or wiring.

If you are close micing, I'd said just ckip the fiberglass abosorbers for now. I have tracked in bad rooms before and got reasonable results (definitly better than video camera mics. Get better mics and everything will be solved.

It could be outside your computer. Becuase you are creating a type of loop from your computer back into your mixer, you could be getting bleed from that insert into the other channels. Try disconnecting the mixer's Stereo Aux Return and see what happens.
