I'm just buying new drums. Tamburo XD Voyager + 16' floor and Sabian B8Pro cymbals for a start because i don't have money for more expensive ones.

S/PDIF Digital I/O connector Hi there, well I want to make my thread a general one about S/PDIF. I want to know what can I do with this connector. I have in mind that it has something to do with AC3 and DTS. But what is the benefit if my soundcard (ESI Quatafire 610) has an S/PDIF or if a...

What about Phonic brand? It is very similar to Behringer or Mackie... another imitation? Another thing... look at THIS page under Computer Based Music Production. One cable goes from mixing console to Audio Interface and there's another cable going directly to computer. What does that cable do...

Well em, I'll be using this laptop just for "low-quality" recordings, just for a brief preview how our band sounds :) Otherwise it's Asus A2D laptop: http://www.asus.com/products/notebook/a2series/a2000d/a2000d_overview.htm. But I think I solved my problem ;)

Of course you have to use external power supply. But thanks, I've already figure it out myself. The notebook was so new that I had to push the cable stronger into the firewire iput :D Did you know that the new drivers for Quatafire are out - ver. 1.19. I've installed them and I've seen same...

Hi there! I'm having problems with firewire on my Asus A2D laptop with Windows XP SP2. The firewire connection is present, also listed in networking devices but when I connect my ESI Quatafire 610 with 6-4 pin firewire cable to my laptop nothing happens, no sound, no nothing. It just doesn't...

Well there is in fact a difference, because my XLR inputs are balanced and this two other RCA inputs are unbalanced. But I don't know how much this unbalanced signal affects the sound. Well in fact it goes like this.... I'm not an expert in home recording but at least I have this equipment: AMD...

Are tape-in/tape-out RCA inputs OK?

Hello! I have QuataFire 610. And it says. REAR PANEL: RCA type connectors for analog inputs 3&4 and outputs 1-4, S/PDIF coaxial I/O, 1/4 inch jacks for analog outputs 5-8, MIDI 2 in 2 out. I want to connect a mixing console to this RCA inputs. With my QuataFire I can record two phantom...

Hi there! I made a sample of my drums using Behringer B1 and ECM8000 microphones in stereo mode. How's the sound? You can find MP3 here. I hope the server is not too slow.

I went to Poll, selected all track and converted them to 44.1kHz 16bit so now it works great. 96kHz 32bit was a little bit too much for my AC97 card. Of course like I said I recorded all tracks on my ESI QuataFire 610 card a lot better than AC97.

Yes, this is first what I thought. I could have a hard time but like I said if I play individual files in media player there's no problem and even in Audition a multitrack song in 96kHz can be played without problem. It can also be a problem with real time effects in Cubase. Maybe the latency is...

Where can I set the sample rate? Is this a system option or a Cubase option.

Hi there! I have a QuataFire 610 sound card on one computer and an intergrated AC97 sound card on the other. when I've copied project files from one to the other the sound in cubase is very slow. Is this because of the intergrated sound card? Recordings are at 96kHz 32bit. If I play them in...

HexaFire isn't available... it isn't out yet... maybe it won't be at all. I have QuataFire 610. It's great... no problems so far.

Hmm I have QuataFire 610 too but no problems like these. Sure I had latency problem when I first started Cubase SX. You have to change the default asio drivers to Quatafire asio 2.0 drivers in Cubase configuration panel.

I have gain buttons on my external QuataFire. I looked everywhere on my PC to find any software corrections but no good. Well sure I can record like this but I just wondered how do you set your gain level. Maybe to half or to a quarter or I don't know. Is this also a preamp question? Like some...

Hi! I finally have my ESI Quatafire 610 now and it works great. Drivers work as it is said in the manual and for now it's great. There is just one problem if I should call this a problem. I have the Shure SM57 mic and when I'm recording the gain must be set quite to the end, almost on full if I...

I have ESI Quatafire 610 with Audition and I don't have any playback problem. You have to order your playback devices and enable use in "edit mode".

OK OK ;) I'll get myself a Behringer UB802. Another thing, is it recommended or not to connect a NON-phantom powered microphone into a phantom powered input. Is it possible that it would damage the microphone?
