My Otari did not come with any hubs for the reels, just the metal pin that sticks out. Does anyone know of a source where I can get these?

I have an Otari MX5050 8trk, and I'm looking for a mixer, but I am also going to need to get a hold of some empty reels, and hubs to mount the reels on. Does anyone know a good source to get these parts? Also, in the process of selecting a mixer, I would like to be able to record 8 tracks...

Portable is in quotations, because it will be primarily going between two locations, although it may make a visit to 1 or 2 more. Anyways, the space we have is an old firehouse, built with 3 wythe brick walls. It's owned by family members that does a little work on it here and there, planning...

What is a good preamp/rack effect for distorted vocals? Kinda like Lennon on "Instant Karma"

I was originally planning to get an 8 track open reel, then go into a Pro Tools setup to add vocals and leads, etc. Then I thought that for what I'd pay to do that, I could get a 2 track deck, a couple good rack FX, and other things. Would it be OK to record 8 channels of rhythm tracks on the...

Hi, I'm interested in going analog. We just recorded to Pro Tools, and it just didn't work out. We've decided that for our next recording session, we want a good setup in our basement. As much analog as we can do. We're into that "dirty" sound that you hear on Pearl Jam albums, etc. We...

I am looking for a bass instrument mic for live and studio use. I will be miking a 10" speaker on a bass amp. I have been looking at the A-T ATM25 and the Audix D4. I have a punchy, midrangey, warm tube-overdriven sound and I do use a B string, so I get pretty low. The bass sound from AC/DC...

Hi, my band is looking to both get a decent recording setup and a live setup (more pressing). I'm the bass player, but I'm sorta the sound guy in the band. I think we are actually pretty much set with the exception of drum mics. We have an extra SM 57 or two, I have a Beta 57 as my vocal mic...

We have a Tascam 428mk2 4 track recorder, a Yamaha EMX5000 powered mixer, JBL JRX PA monitors. We have 2 electric guitars, drum machine, bass, lead and backing vocals to record. The thing is, we can't figure out if there is a way to record all this together. We can get it all run through the...

I own the $69 n-track on my desktop computer. Is it legal for me to put n-track on my laptop computer with the same registration codes? I own and am the sole user of both computers.

Any reccomendations on a compressor plugins and parametric EQ plugins? I'll pay for the FAsoft versions if they're that good, but want to see if there's anything better first.

I'm looking into buying a set of monitors. I'm currently using Roland MA-8's with the treble and bass both on full. Anyways, I'm looking for something more accurate. I don't have expensive equipment, nor a lot of money. What would you reccomend as monitors? I don't have the money for a set...

OK, I downloaded the demo, and I liked it, when I got my paycheck, I got the registered version. I registered it, and it no longer says UNREGISTERED at the top, and no more reminders. However, some of my effects (i.e. compressor) still say "Demo Version" on them, and mute every 10 seconds...

I'd like to learn drums, and possibly have the ability to record them direct. But learning to keep a beat, and being able to hear the sound of them is what's important. I've seen articles on how to modify Remo practice pads into drum triggers, to save money on those, my main question concerns...

I'm posting for a friend of mine, whose Gateway with XP Home has not been working well since he installed his AP card, DSL/ high speed internet no longer works. Are there any problems with running XP Home and the 2496? I have XP pro and the 2496 and it works fine

I have an Audiophile 2496 and just downloaded n-track. I cannot figure out how to monitor while i record. M-audio says to change it in your recording software (n-track). N-track tells me to change it in my soundcard software. Thanks!

Are there any problems with windows XP Professional and Audiophile 2496 drivers, n-track or ACID? I want to get networked to my next door neighbor, and he wants to convert me to Windows 2K, because he says that XP sucks. Any thoughts on this?

I have a nice pair of Denon Headphones that I would like to use for stereo monitoring purposes on the Audiophile 2496 that I just bought. I was looking at a Rolls Headphone amp, can i just get a dual RCA to 1/4" plug and still have it run stereo? I cant afford the money for expensive monitors...

I read that there is one stereo input on this. What does this mean? If I am recording 2 guitars, bass, and drums, can the drums be run in stereo, i.e. the toms on the left will be heard through the left channel, the toms on the right will be heard on the right?

I want to start doing computer recording. I have a new Dell Dimension desktop and also an older Gateway laptop. I'll probably be using ACID Pro. Everything I'd be doing would be one track at a time, but I want to be able to do stereo, especially for my drum machine. I'd like to be able to...
