I haven't posted anything on here in years; I've been too busy recording other people that I don't have time for my own music. Today I did this ditty a few hours and I just wanted a ballpark figure as to how the mix sounds. It's only 17 seconds or something like that so the download is small...

For the last three or so years I had been using an Audiotrak INCA 88. What a piece of crap that was. My computer would crash about once an hour because the drivers were so poorly written. Enter today. I received from UPS a brand new M-Audio Delta 44. Needless to say, I was ecstatic. I...

Hey. How do you guys go about sequencing drums for demoing songs? I don't have a drumset handy, and it is a pain to mic it up when I do have one, so I write all my drums in Sonar and then record tracks over the drums. However, the way I'm doing it is kinda ghetto. I have a separate track for...

hey. so i am in the middle of recording my second solo album, and my audiobuddy decides to stop turning on. :-(. i KNOW i have the right adapter. it's a 120v AC -> 9v AC adapter, and on the back of the audiobuddy it says 9v AC. i opened it up to see if there were any fuses that had burned up...

hi. can anyone recommend me something that offers decent A/D D/A converters at 24-bit? 2 channels is preferred. all i need is a pair of 24-bit inputs. i was looking at the m-audio delta 44, which is what i'm looking for, but preferably 2 channels instead of 4 to save money (yeah, i'm cheap)...

i've been using antares autotune for a while, but i was wondering if there were any alternative plugs that do the same thing. antares gets the job done, but the automatic can't always pick the right note, and the manual is a little cumbersome in my opinion. anyone have any suggestions or...

just like the subject says. anyone know of any ways to simulate the sounds of a record player making the crack/pop noises of a dirty record? i don't have a record player available to me, but i want this effect for one of my songs. any ideas would be appreciated. thanks. justin

hey. this is my first mix with electric guitar. i've mainly done acoustic stuff before, so this is a new experience for me. the one thing about this mix that bothers me is that the guitars sound like they're clipping, and they're not even close to clipping on my meters. i don't know what...

hey. this is the final version of the song that i already printed to cd, so i can't fix it anymore, but i need tips for any future project. personally, i think the sound turned out pretty good, considering my equipment. behringer ultravoice for a preamp on the vox/guitar, bass done di, and i...

someone tell me if this is possible, or if anyone has done it before with success. venues have rack after rack of effects processors such as compressors, reverbs, delays, etc. what i want to do is, for a show i have coming up, use my computer to do all the real-time processing. i have a...

hey. allow me to introduce myself, since i'm new to the boards. my name is Justin, i'm 16 years old and i reside in Mesa, AZ. if you just want to get down to business and skip the extraneous crap, here is the link: http://members.cox.net/keerus/ja.mp3 here is some background on the song: i...

let's say i have a pretty difficult vocal line. so what i did was go and record it like 15 times, and i can take different parts of it and arrange the best ones together. the problem is after i did one i pressed 'delete' instead of putting it somewhere, but the count keeps going up. right now...

i have a problem with lowering my latency in sonar. i used to have a generic philips soundcard, and so the lowest the latency could go was 10ms, but cakewalk was inoperable at that latency with that soundcard, so i put it up to 40ms. a thing that i thought was strange was that all the options...

i have a dumb question, but i can't find the answer in the help docs. does sonar have the capability to "send" a wave to another program, such as sound forge, and then refresh the edited audio in the sonar project? or do i have to save the track separately, edit in sound forge, then re-open in...

i need to pick up a pair of drum overheads. i'm looking to spend less than $200, but i can deal with $200-$300. what are your favorite drum overhead mics?

ok, i'm mixing some general rock music. some indie, some punk, whatever. i'm new to mixing so i need some tips. when you're at the mixing stage, which is better: let the waveform breathe, having no peaks and not all crushed next to 0dB (and let the mastering engineer make it "loud"), or...
