When I was in radio, before I got out and started flying as a commercial pilot, I was often assigned spot production duties in our analog, half track stereo studio using LP's for music beds and an RE 20 for me. Now, having been furloughed from my jet job, and observing the two year anniversary...

I just fired up Adobe Audition, using an Echo Mia soundcard. I can monitor the playback of a recording using the original soundblaster card. How can I hear what the input sounds like before and during the recording process?????

I've been trying to bring up the Audiomasters forum over the past day or two. It was supposed to remain as an alternative to the new Adobe forum for Audition/CEP. Has it been shut down, or is it unavailable for some other reason? The Adobe forum isn't as user friendly as I'd like. Comments?

When I was researching software for my newbie home studio, I found that Pro Tools has several places where you can go and find out how to best use the program, such as Future Media in NYC. Is there any place in the Northeast that can teach me the ins and outs of Audition/Cool Edit in a "hands...

I'm still mulling over the purchase of sgnal chain stuff for my home studio. I might get away with just a VTB-1, but I'm thinking more "long term" now. I'm thinking about a single box that can preamp, compress, and EQ. Focusrite makes something called a "Penta", and a music chain has it for...

Ok. I bought the Echo MIA card for $99, got two MK319's for $99, and I just got off the phone with the GC guy who is willing to sell me a new DMP3 for $119. From what you know of this equipment, where the heck can I plug in my headphones? Do I now need a special headphone amp to run out of the...

I finally decided that the Echo Mia soundcard that GC had on sale this month ($99) was a bargain, and would do the job of helping me to put my voice into my computer for VO auditions. When I am ready (purchase the software, etc) to put it all together, I want some tips on getting to know my new...

When I was a radio guy, I always used the K240 cans. Great sound, lightweight, and no feedback when working close to the mic. The new ones I picked up at GC the other day say "600 ohm" on the box, and the word "monitor" is appended to the "K240". How great an issue is this different impedance...

Anyone familiar with the Presonus brand of preamp sold at Guitar Center? How about the Bellari? I saw these yesterday at GC, and I'm curious what your thoughts on these are. I haven't seen them mentioned on the message boards.

First, thanks to Harvey for the many hours I just spent reading the mic sticky. I hadn't thought about that stuff since I mic'ed live folk music on Philly radio in the 70's. Sheesh! Some of you may be aware that I am the New Guy this week, and I need some input. I'm getting back into voice over...

I asked some questions yesterday (all right, last night, and I had just found this BBS) and I'd like those of you who enjoy helping out newcomers to shed a little light. My basic questions are: the cost, abilities, and compatibility issues for sound cards connectivity issues for preamps...

I used to be a radio guy back in the 70's and 80's. I spent a lot of time flying airplanes once I discovered that the days of actually picking my own music were over. We used 1/4 inch tape on 10 inch reels, and life was good. Now, I have to play catch-up with the new way of doing things...
