From the question, I'm guessing the OP is probably a noob, in which case we can skip all of the complications (that he may well not understand anyhow) and offer up this simple and inexpensive solution... Buy M-Audio USB Uno 1X1 MIDI Interface | MIDI Interfaces | Musician's Friend

Yeah...I loved hearing "Sargeant Pepper's" when the Beatles played it in their live shows... (Sarcasm OFF) Back in my "one overhead" days, even though there were a lot of drugs around, I never heard of anyone suspending themselves upside down from the ceiling to listen to my drums! But...

Seems to me that audio quality is something that can be quantitatively measured. I'm afraid you are wrong... Quality is a subjective value; in the eye of the beholder. You might find equipment with a particular set of specifications that provide what you define as "quality", and look for...

Obviously mic position is of extreme importance, but... Here's a quick and easy way to deal with the problem of "too much cymbal"... Don't hit the f*ckin' cymbals so hard! When I first started doing studio work, the drums got one overhead...that was it. The good studio guys were the guys who...

To buy a Pro Tools 9 upgrade, you need the serial number of a piece of Avid/Digidesign hardware. You can get one Ilok authorization for each serial number. Otherwise, you have to buy the full PT 9 package. Frankly, I couldn't figure out how the hell your scheme works, but what I've outlined...

... most people don't ... I think you really need to expand your sample base. Look at Cher's and T-Pain's sales figures and tell us again about how ... most people don't ... like Autotune...

The Structure Free sample library included with my Pro Tools 9 is 886 MB in size. Just the sample library. I think if you look carefully at Cubase LE you will also find sample libraries of substantial size that don't exist in Reaper. Do you know what the size of a program on your disk tells...

This is one of those things where there is really no need for discussion... You are learning Pro Tools, the industry standard professional software, in school. Outside of sleeping, school, work, getting laid, whatever, you have X number of hours in a day. You can spend all of those X hours...

Keep everything you write! And go back and look at it from time to time. More than once I've grabbed a line or two from a sucky song and used them in what would become a good song...

I'm trying my best to learn how to sing at least one song for the onicon this octuber 30th (2010)! Did no one notice that any advice given after that date might be somewhat moot?

You don't use them in Nuendo or Cubase... You apply those effects while the input is being recorded (which means that you are stuck with them). Unless there is some compelling to record while using the effects in your mixer, don't do it. Record with no effects, then add them later by using...

A few things to think about... The most important part of your signal chain is your room treatment. Even if you're using the best mic in the world, if the room sucks, the recording is going to suck. Unless you've already done so, spend your money on getting your room to sound good. No offense...

Stuff a lot of cotton in your ears before you start adjusting your amp. Say, enough cotton to mute the sound of a very large explosion. I mean, you might as well do so if your amp is sitting on the floor and you're standing up while you're "dialing it in". You're probably thinking, "I wouldn't...

... is there something comparable to ProTools that is not as expensive? No...if for no other reason than certain standards exist in the professional world. There are other tools that may perform as well as, or perhaps even better than, Pro Tools does. But that's not the important criteria...

While they didn't show all 16 data points, what they did show looked like STC measurements to me. And JFTR: My position on booths is neutral. Ideally, we would all be able to have a nice sized space with good acoustic qualities and low noise transmission into the space. But not all of us have...

Have you considered picking up something like an Avid Eleven Rack or one of the Pod units? You could probably get pretty close to your desired tone without the degradation...

Start with the first post...the poster already has a 4 x 4 booth; he was trying to make it work better, not build or use some other space. And I would really like to know in what part of the country a 12 x 20 bedroom is "typical"...

I have a feeling I know why, too...you didn't really look at the site... On the Whisper Room site they are listed on both the "Product" and "Pricing" pages for each model. On the Vocal Booth site they are listed on each "Product" page, and their testing method is show via: the "Decibel...

Shadow_7... Most of the vendors I've checked out either offer or include a ventilation system designed both for low noise and low noise transfer...

If you're not doing it for the love of music, it's just as well to quit. That's a nice homily, but... I got into playing drums because of Connie Francis' boobs. "Lipstick On Your Collar" had an interesting late 50's drum part. I saw her on American Bandstand and, not to be stereotypical, she...
