We have 2 workstations in our studio. Mac running a Pro Tools TDM rig. The other is a PC running various apps (including Pro Tools M-Powered). The PC is the box in question. Recently I've noticed more noise is the system. When I hit record on the PC I'm seeing the meters jump up to about -66db...

So the other CD Duplication thread got me thinking. How do you guys feel about replicated CDs versus duplicated CDs? I usually tell my clients and artists that I think replicated CDs look more professional. There's something about the green side of a duplicated disk that just screams "DEMO" to...

Okay, this isn't actually a piece of recording equipment. I play in a band where it's sometimes necessary to play audio files from a laptop instantly. I need software that will make lots of .wav files readily available for playback. BSI Stinger 2.0 is almost exactly what I'm looking for. Here...

Greetings all! I have a session tonight in which the 2 artists both play acoustic guitar. They are pretty insistant that we track their guitar part at the same time in the same room. It's nearly a unison part (with one part being slightly more intricate). Is this a horrible idea? Any suggestions...
