    Is all this about colors?

    IMHO most pre amps want to create the sound of those older analog head bumps and frequency curves where low mids have been bumped to warm up the sound. tht isn't possile with flat converters, pre aamps, micropohones, and A/D. So does all this 20-20,000Hz +/- 1dB mean much? Not really since...

    took your suggestions...here's what is left -

    i forgot to add that it sounds like you don't have a pop filter and you are trying to have the mic far away in a position that keeps it from popping. If that is the case get a pop filter and experiment with that. You can get good sounds without a pop filter, depending on the sound you are...

    hey, im glad you got the delta 44. Its definitely the improvement in sound you needed from the time i heard "Lights Out". I hear what people mean by raw. There isn't much in the way of reverb or compression. but what means raw is bad? I think for the age/equipment/type of music it conveys...

    Your prices reflect roughly what I pay for hosting. I get 50Mb space, and $6.95/month, but i have 2.5Gb of bandwidth usage. Maybe your 250Mb was a typo. But these are the guys I host with http://www.digitalspace.net and I've recommended people to them before. They are my second host ever...

    Soon to change from WinXP to Win2000...

    been there, done that. I've already tried an install with the delta in. that was futile, it wouldn't go past the first boot where you set up users etc. so I'm pretty lost. I'm unfortunately going to have to call/email m-audio to see what they say. It is entirely possible the card died.

    Soon to change from WinXP to Win2000...

    Ok, process of elimination. I took EVERYTHING out of my PC. and just left the cd drive and video card. installed windows. everything was fine. Put in SCSI and the CDR, everything fine. Put in the Delta and BOOM!!! computer no longer starts. Took it out... its fine. So its a clean...

    i eat my hard drives. i don't do anything evil to them, and i've had win2k running great for like a year and a half. but all of a sudden i took out my delta and put it back in a couple weeks later, and now the hard drive is fucked. i did a fresh install on win2k and now my computer stalls...

    dipping my foot in the water. is this feasible?

    Dimensions. Sure, is there a way to flag John to this thread? :( I wouldn't ever get that much space. for width, 12 will be pushing it. But I will try to get as long as a space as possible so i will be able to split it into hopefully two rooms. With respect to getting air to the non-control...

    dipping my foot in the water. is this feasible?

    HVAC For ventilation there will be a wall unit AC. I said that on the first post. Its Texas, i think i would be limited criminally insane to not think about that. What size room is needed minimum for this idea http://www.saecollege.de/reference_material/images/Garage%202.gif ? Thats what I...

    dipping my foot in the water. is this feasible?

    Todzilla - I agree, I am pushing the limits with the two room idea. But thats why i was trying to make the "two" rooms become one larger one with the french doors. It would allow for some isolation. There are some properties that hes looking at that have really big lots, and that may allow...

    dipping my foot in the water. is this feasible?

    I'm studio challenged, ie. I don't have one. Not only that, I can't play drums in my apartment or have band practice. My brother who I live with is buying a house in the next couple months, and may even be building one. He is probably going to let me have a room designed around music if he is...

    Do you guys think I'm an idiot?

    Hey, I'm 20 and a junior at The University of Texas in Austin. I record bands for fun when time permits and it makes a lot more money and much more enjoyable money than working at a burger joint or at a stanic franchise clothes store. The best thing you can walk out of college with is a...

    Unhappy with my NTK...

    i have to agree with cyanjaguar, i couldn't find a mic that suited my voice until i was in a real studio and sung one note into a AKG414 - there was no turning back. The blue dragonfly might be that mike for you, you know when it is. and more to the point other people know when it is. if...
