    which software supports multiple drivers for PC

    years ago i used to use logic audio and it was awsome because it allowed me to sync up 2 completely different pci sound cards(hoontech and isis maxi) and see them at the same time in my projects. I have been a cubasesx user now for a couple of years and have just stuck with an 8 input device...

    I want the DMP3!

    nothing is worse than the sound of a behringer UB1002. A mate bought one around my place ages ago and I was horrified and pretty much labelled them as unusable. compared to other pre-amps I have, dmp3, alto, yamaha mixer, even a crappy smpro pr8 thing is better than the sound of those behringer...

    preamp: yamaha mixer vs dmp3

    much the same I have owned and used both items. I used a couple of dmp3's to record drums for a couple years. these work well. then bought as yamaha mg 12 mixer just to control my monitors. I dunno if its my ears or what, but I can't really notice any difference to my recordings when I use the...

    what is side chain??Hoe do you use a "real" compressor

    yeah pretty much as I suspected. I really like the choices you have with software compressors and would not like to have to commit an effetct to "tape". The "ducking" thing. Again my only experience with that is in the plugin drumagog that that uses this feature to "duck" drum hits from tracks...

    How to mic drums and what to use?

    for recording you could just use the drumagog plugin and drop in heavey metal kick sample over the top of your kick?? Drumagog works by replacing realtime hits with samples so I reckon is the easiest way to do what your talking about without having to use extreme eq settings which could stuff up...
