Does anyone know of any good computer software I can use in drawing up blueprints for my studio? It doesn't need to be very technical, I just need to visually plan this stuff out before I commit!

Hi everybody, I have a space that I want to acoustically treat and move my recording equiptment into, and its about 25x15 with slanted ceilings that peak at about 15 feet. I read through everything on John's page and I want to create a three room studio, the rooms being a control room, a...

Well I have finally decided to go spend the money to increase my studio, and I want to get into digital recoding. However I don't want to go the computer-based route, so I am therefore considering buying an XT20 and a studio 32, with plans to buy an LX later down the line. What I am worried...

I just bought events PS-6 monitors to use in my project studio. I have a tascam 414 portastudio which has RCA L and R MON OUT outputs on the back. To hook the monitors up I bought two RCA to XLR cables, which seem to be working. My question is, when I want to just listen through the...

My four track only has one headphone input, so its perfect for times when I record by myself. However, when I want to record my band (4 members), we all want our own headphones to listen through while recording. I have heard that it's bad to use a splitter to get more headphones into the 4...

I just bought the event PS-6 monitors, and I am so retarded that I am having a hard time setting them up (actually, I haven't really tried, i don't want to break anything). I want to connect them to my portastudio (tascam 414) which has the MON OUT L and R in the back, but the monitors only...

Hi everyone, This past weekend my band recorded our practice on my tascam 414 potrastudio. When I went home and plugged in the headphones to listen to it, all I seem to get is a high pitched chipmunk rendition of the practice. I can't seem to figure out whats going on!! Good thing no question...

Hi everybody, I am facing a really tough decision. I really want to buy the ADAT studio pack, because I want to be able to record more tracks, get involved with digital recording, and use it for live band recording. I have a tascam 414 right now, and I think I can get along with it for a...

Can anyone suggest a good amp to power the event 20/20's?

What is everyone's opinion on the moniter one's and the power amp that alesis makes? I was thinking about purchasing it for my home studio but I want to get some opinions on it first. Thanks

I bought aa alesis 3630 compressor from musicians friend, and after hearing some negative stuff about it, I decided that I was going to return it when it arrived. So I went out to the music store near my house and got the Behringer composer pro, and now my other one came and I have two. Before...

I just got a new raxxess 20 space rack from sam ash, and I put the thing together (no instructions, figures..) and tried to put my compressor and hartke bass head into the damn thing and it doesn't fit!! I am almost positive it is put together correctly, and I thought all of this is supposed to...

Im sure this is probably a stupid question, but Im a beginner. What advantages does the materlink offer other than cd burning that you couldn't just do with outboard equiptment? thank

I am going to buy a compressor this week and these two are the ones that I keep hearing good things about. In everyone's opinion, which is the right one to buy, or would I be happy with either one? thanks...

I have a tascam 414, two shure sm58's, a nanoverb, and I mixdown to cassettes. I am really stuck about what piece of equiptment I should be saving for next. I would eventually like to be making cd's to listen to instead of tapes,and I would like to improve the sound quality of my recordings...

Ive heard some good stuff about the bass pod, and I am thinking about buying it. I have a tascam 414 now and I really want to be able to have the ability to get great bass sounds. Do you think this is a good investment?
