    Complete laptop recording kit

    Have Indigo IO recording interface (slides into PCMIA slot) and HOMESTUDIO XL software. Pristine recording gear only used 2 weeks. Paid 350. for both and would like to sell together. Moved to an all-in-one Roland DAW...so don't need. A steal at 150. Absolutely mint. Email...

    Loss of volume! What gives?

    Been recording my own guitar stuff on my all-in-one digital workstation for years but only recently got a laptop and imported my music into Windows Media from the cd's I burned on my workstation (figured it would be a quick way to make copies for friends etc.). Here's the problem: My original...

    Laptop cooling fan....

    Just got my Cake Home Studio 2XL and began playing around (using my Indigo IO) and I'm blown away by the the sound quality. The only teenie glitch is that my mics are picking up my pc's cooling fan ever so slightly. Of course, I'm currently playing around at a desk in a small bedroom and my mics...

    indigo io question

    Being a pc recording newbie moron, I need advice! Just ordered indigo io for my laptop and picked up a small euro mixer with proper mixer to 1/8" cable. Now I'd like to order some recording software that would work with this setup. How about cakewalk studio 2 or cubase se? Bear in mind I'm a pc...

    Help! Monitor Noise!

    Bought a Monster patch cord and ran from my laptop headphone jack to my studio monitors....and the playback results are tremendous except on quiet stuff when I can hear all my computers "bells and whistles" in my monitors. Hissing and crackling etc.....which disappears as computer shuts down. I...

    Hello! Been thinking about trying computer recording...usb...and I ran into a Digitech rp400 (I think) in a music store. It's some kind of effects pedal with protracks software. Any of you have this rig? Is it shit?

    I guess I'll keep AW16G

    Buying a powerful laptop in a couple of weeks and was dreaming of maybe switching to computer based recording. I know nothing about it and from the many hours of research I've done on these forums I guess I've been scared off. I checked out the Tascam us-122 and the Lex Omega and the Mobile...

    Gefell m300?

    I'd like to hear from someone who owns these. Would like to use a matched pair on fingerstyle acoustic...I read that they are the balls. Is it true... and if so...what pre would be nice. All big bucks, I know, but I may just be able to swing it (if I get enough "good" opinions!) Thanks

    Omni on acoustic?

    Just read on guitar & bass forum that an omni can sound great on acoustic because boominess tends to lessen? I love miking the soundhole and if this omni thing is true, can you guys recommend a reasonably priced unit (300?). I currently record solo acoustic fingerstyle with an NT3 and an AT4040...

    CAD Mics

    What's the scoop on CAD mics? Don't know anything about 'em. Looked in search but couldn't find anything. Are they junk? How about on acoustic guitar? Any of you own any?

    Pyramid Strings?

    I play a Morgan acoustic strung with Elixir Nanos and I just love 'em. My kid gave me a set of Pyramids (german made) for my b-day. Are they super and at least worth a try?

    Want a dead quiet signal path?

    I'm a newbie with you guys but I have been recording for better than 2 years now and made a $70 discovery that has really paid off. I went from a basement studio to a garage studio and noticed especially in the garage my mics and inherently noisy ARTV3 preamps were extra noisy. I searched the...

    603's/dmp3 Combo Just Super!

    Bought a pair of 603's and a DMP3 this week and I'm happier than a pig in shit. Also bought a multi-mic holder which allowed me to X/Y the mics but I found that after some experimentation I got super results by focusing one on the 12th fret and the other where the fretboard and soundhole meet at...

    preamp(s) for mxl603,s?

    I've ordered a couple of 603s then realized I need preamps. Have been using art v3's on my nt3 and 4040. I'm not rich (hence the 603's) and I was thinking about a couple of Studio Projects tube blend models. OK? Or any other reasonable choices? I still plan on trying my old mics as room mics...

    I was dreaming of some Neumanns but some of you said to try a pair of Studio Projects C4's as well as some others. How do they sound on acoustic guitar used as a matched pair? Thanks.

    Neumann KM184 question?

    Being of modest means, my home studio has never been graced by a Neumann mic. Being an acoustic fingerstylist I read Acoustic Guitar Magazine every month and have seen an ad on the KM184 saying that it's the only mic acoustic players need in any situation and on any guitar whether live or...
