    New backup using too much storage

    Once you resolve "get[ting] the storage space back," you may want to evaluate whether storage issues (based on keeping material long-term or the simply the size of future projects) will become a storage problem. If you find this to be the case, here are some storage options that are physically...

    Tascam 244 portastudio service manual

    analogdude, Not sure if you still need this, but I found a link for a manual--it may just be an operational manual or have schematics. I'd run a security sweep before downloading such material. Here's the link: Tascam 244 Portastudio - Manual - 4-Track Mixer Recorder - HiFi Engine --JeffF.

    How to effectively simulate bass guitar with MIDI keyboard?

    seeking, I would still encourage you to at least watch the YouTube video I mentioned in thread #52. I believe you'll be amazed at what you may glean in song construction overall, and the bass specifically (as Rick Beato insightfully explores all parts), just from that one video. Once you...

    How to effectively simulate bass guitar with MIDI keyboard?

    For ecc83, others, I recently saw an Ed Sullivan rerun that featured a "gimmick" group of about a dozen Jazz brass, piano, string, instrumentalists. The gimmick was to only play a prolonged sequence of showy solos. As I reflected upon what I saw, I thought how different that was compared to a...

    Bit depth compatibility . . .

    Thanks Ashcat. You helped me reframe my concern, in regard to possible distortion in combining different sampling rates. Although I will not be using DAW, I see that I should have asked whether different sampling rates recorded would cause speed/pitch issues when creating a .WAV file with the...

    Bit depth compatibility . . .

    Bit depth [edited] compatibility . . . As of Christmas, I have 2 drum machines units, Beat Buddies. One model is 16-bit; the other is 24 bit. I also have two Tascam [edited: Portastudios]: the 8-track is 16 bit; the 24 track is 24 bit. Of question, would I encounter any compatibility...

    How to effectively simulate bass guitar with MIDI keyboard?

    The point has been well made about learning to think as a bassist. This presents a crossroads before you as I see it: Do you have the time to study/practice bass guitar that indeed, as a peer pointed out, requires technical proficiency all its own (despite, I would add, the limited abilities of...

    Insight on any of the following questions is appreciated. Situation: Only RCA cables can be sent from source to desktop mixing monitors designed to accept RCA plugs: 1) Are RCA cable more prone to noise? If so, what is the cause and how can I prevent it? 2) Can such noise be merely unwanted...

    Speaker input conversion from volts to dB help requested:

    Respectfully, to be clear were you referring to dBu to dBV numbers as what you got of the same value or only the voltage input to dBV conversion mentioned in the earlier sentence (not shown in quote)? If referring to dBu to dBV, is that how you would have worked the problem--I can understand...

    Issue with JBL LSR 2300!

    Hello Keith, Your "numerical" point is well taken. A company's reputation is their most valuable asset and not to be treated lightly--my take away from your insights. Thank you. Separately, if you received several of the same PM a few days ago, I apologize: I did not realize the Show in Sent...

    Speaker input conversion from volts to dB help requested:

    Hello Spantini, I appreciate the conversion calculator on provided website link. In establishing a rudimentary knowledge base (in this rather specialized area), over the last few days I reviewed material on dB applications and terms, which I understood of basic concepts. However, I am not...

    Issue with JBL LSR 2300!

    Hello Keith, I did not find the consumer review as these monitors are phased out with the retailer site where I believe I read aforementioned post, so that model's reviews are no longer showing, of course. However, I did a topic search on the monitors with the word “failure” and found this of...

    Fostex PM-SUBmini questions

    I am looking at possibly purchasing the Fostex PMSubmini2 sub. I'd use it with my IK 3" Micro Monitors, likely A/B switching with JBL LSR 305's. Any comments on its fidelity? Would the lack of cutting off what is sent to the monitors (below sub's crossover selection) cause inability to hear...

    Issue with JBL LSR 2300!

    I read a review from a purchaser from retailer speak about this. I can look for the retail site (review)--only 2 retailers I deal with--if you'd like. Basically, the party expressed hope that JBL would fix apparently a common power failure issue with the series. Sincerely, JeffF.

    Issue with JBL LSR 2300!

    I have a new pair of LSR 305's still in boxes for several months. Just after purchase, I read of such issue like Keith described. I may like to go with a pair of the next series from JBL's, but will wait to see if failure issue is resolved. As far as my new JBL LSR 305's, I am reluctant to...

    Speaker input conversion from volts to dB help requested:

    Through a 3rd-party retailer, I obtain a manufacturer’s frequency graph, which is based on 0.1 volts input (as stated on the engineers’ notes). The reason I need to know conversion of voltage to dB input is because the low-end rolls off quite a bit (approximately -15dB) from 80Hz before...

    panning mono tracks for stereo mixdown

    Kind words! Don't know why I'm so constipated these days in anything electronically communicated. I scaled the last reply back a bit to make it at least readable for others--since you already saw my sincerity in it. I did add links on it to be of some service, hopefully, to you. So far, I've...

    panning mono tracks for stereo mixdown

    Hello smg, I hope this does not distract from your original request for support, which may yet be unmet. I will seek to plainly correct those mistakes for others who may have read reply #81, referencing the manual linked below: 1) I was of inaccuracy about the Undo function not usable with...

    panning mono tracks for stereo mixdown

    Hello smg, I apologize: Upon reading your reply I reviewed the DP008EX manual. I see on pages 49-52 that the Undo function allows for bounced tracks to be undone; I was in error on this and, again, apologize for not furthering you toward your goals. Does this feature allow you to undo bounced...
