Fair enough Rich. I guess this grumpy old bugger was just put off by their over-busy website. I don't WANT to setup a friggin' account with every sodding company I seek information from! I get enough 'king spam as it is! My hard earned will go to sites which are "quiet", calm, easy to navigate...

Hmm? My son plays bass in a band in France and they have two mixers. A cheap jobby that I sent him, it works but I was very disappointed with it. They have a bigger analogue mixer but I think they are running tight on inputs. I might get a flow 8 and they can 'slave' it to the biggy. Well...

I am not in the least surprised that it worked and had I spotted your post earlier this is just what I would have suggested. FYI the noise is called "ground loop zipper noise" and is usually caused by a laptop being earthed via its charger (did you try it on battery?) and connected to a grounded...

" You could probably make one in 2 minutes from a pair of broken headphones" Possibly not S because a lot of headphone cables use 'tinsel wire' which is Aluminium and impossible to solder. But, FFS! A stereo 3.5mm plug and two TS or TRS 1/4" plugs? There are not that many permutations and...

Checked their website yesterday..."splashy" super busy site and not straightforward to navigate so I blew them out. Proper, "professional" suppliers make their websites clear and simple and quick to know. I also suspect they claim their cables "sound better" than the competition which is Russ...

I was interested so I looked up its specifications and was rather disappointed? Max output +14dBu, a good 8-10dB below almost all other mixers including Behringer's own. The mic noise EIN is given as -117dB weighted! Most mixers/AI do better than -127dB. I guess if you have monitors or PA...

Yes, as far as I understand things, that^ is what OP needs. A stereo splitter. Personally I would chop the single TRS plug off and replace it with a 3.5mm TRS plug? The weight of adapter,cable and plug can bugger a TRS socket....feeble fekkers at the best of times! But I hope his eyes are a LOT...

For (Win 11?) laptops I have bought my son a Lenovo E590 i5 gen 8* 512 ssd and 16G ram 15.6" screen . I have Reaper on it and the 11 track demo plays out of my M4 with no problems at 44.1kHz and 128 samples. I would suggest if you can to go for a bigger hard drive and 32G ram for future...

Rob, you are the LAST person I am going to have a cow with about computer recording! I am but a worm. I can only go by what I have read over many years and the whole thing is complex, involving as it does floating point math INSIDE the DAW which cannot I understand be overloaded? And the...

Yes because each time you mix two tracks at the same level the resultant is some 3dB higher. You can see therefore that as you mix more and more tracks you are going to bump into 0dBFS before long! Once you have EQ'ed and mixed the **** out of your tracks you can always boost it to as close to...

I would forget isolation booths. They are a bit of a myth for singers and were mainly used for V/O work where the "zero acoustic" did not bother the speaker too much but horrible to sing in! But! You seem to have discovered the source of noise ingress and therefore egress? Try placing some...

I don't know, I only read but I think SUBTRACTIVE EQ is the way to go? That is, do not, if you can possibly avoid it , boost* any frequencies. There is also the "Skyline" principle where you visualize each instrument/voice as part of a cityscape? *This can run you into headroom problems. The...

I could be wrong but I think you can only get Adobe Audition as part of a suite? Includes video editing and other ***t you don't need and subscription only. I have had AA 1.5 for 20 years! It came on a PC my best mate built for me for my 60th birthday. It is the only cracked software I have...

It's the wavelength innit! Given by, in theory c/f where c is speed of light and f the highest frequency of interest. So for 20kHz that is 15,000 mtrs. Signals* don't quite go at c in cables and it depends on the cable but you can see that 20kHz is going to be well over 10km! At audio...

No but but then I am not a musician or songist! My point was really that the "seekers of the '60s mojo" have, IMHO missed a very important factor in the sound of many of the hits. We hear endless waffles about vintage mics, pre amps with "attitude" and "tape sound" but nobody has ever asked...

I was put in mind of this very common thread, the search for that "old rock sound" a month or so ago when I read about the history of the echo chamber (re your mention of "The Plate" Papa) in sound on sound. Yes! It suddenly struck me! You can assemble all the (grotty IMHO!) harmonically rich...

Unless I am T as S and missing something as well I don't see a problem? The DP02 has send and return jacks. The SX3040 has in put and output jacks. You just need two TS cables AFAICS? Play the track out of the DP, send to Behrry, mangle. Return to another track on the DP...Bob;s yer whatsit...

I would like to just add to Rob's comments. The ZED 10 uses an internal switch mode power supply, i.e. no 60Hz transformer so that initial 60Hz spike HAS to come from an external source. Yes, transferring mixer, cans and guitar to another venue is a very good idea. The more so if the incumbent...

Chicken and egg sir. You won't know what to do with a meter until you get one. Suggestions! Test batteries, check earth continuity (we can tell you how) check the polarity of wall wart power supplies, been the ruination of many a gadget when that is wrong. Modern meters are sensitive enough and...

A easy, cheap way to colour code cables is some heat shrink sleeving. You can buy it in various colours but an even cheaper solution is to buy a collection of coloured 'lekkies' PVC tape and some clear shrink which keep the tape in place and stops it going sticky*. If you know the resistor...
