Hi guys, So I'm building my own PC for recording and I'm looking into getting 2 80GB hard drives (one for the OS and program files, one for the sound libraries). Problem is I can't decide which one to get! I've researched on here and on reviews and it's like the more I learn the more confused...

Hi, So far I've decided that this setup should work for me: Intel P4 3.0Ghz ASUS P4S800-MX Mobo Zalman CNPS700B-CU Heatsink 1G of Corsair RAM Maxtor 80GB SATA Harddrive Maxtor 60GB EIDE Harddrive Plextor 12/10/32 CD-Writer Drive Hitachi 8X DVD ROM Drive Case with 350W Power Supply Just a...

Hey all, i have a weird problem going on. I plug my SM57 into the XLR channel A of my DMP3 preamp. Turn the preamp on, adjust the gain levels for channel A, tried both the Hi and Lo gain ranges, and the VU meters aren't moving at all. Just yesterday I plugged my guitar into the direct input...

Hey everyone, Just wondering what VST/DX instruments you use and can't live without? Personally I like Amplitube and the Waves line of plugins. How about everyone else?

Hi there, I'm looking for a preamp to fit in my recording chain that looks as follows: 1962 RI Fender Strat -> Fender Blues Jr. Amp -> SM57 -> ?????? -> Audiophile 24/96 -> Computer using Cubase Basically I'd like it if the warm sound of the Blues Jr. doesn't get lost along the way down the...

Hi there, Basically I want to try to emulate John Frusciante of the Chili Peppers' tone and I'm looking for an amp that can help achieve this. Now, I don't want to get a full marshall stack like he has, basically I just need a small amp for practicing at home and micing up to record. I'm...

Hi there, I'm thinking about buying a used 1962 Reissue Strat, so I went and tried playing it but it had this weird hissing sound when I plugged it into the amp. The next day, the owner told me it was due to the amp being plugged into an unproperly grounded outlet. So he tried it somewhere...

Hi there, Just wondering based only on their preamps, which do you prefer: The DMP3 or the Mackie VLZ Pro preamps? I've got a mackie and am thinking about selling it and getting a DMP3 -- as I only need a microphone and guitar preamp and none of the bells and whistles of a full mixing board...

Hi, Currently I record guitar/vocals through my Mackie 1402-VLZ Pro. I'm looking to sell it, as it's just overkill (as I just need an XLR mic and instrument channel). Any suggestions on what to buy? I'm looking at the M-Audio FireWire Solo right now. How does that compare to the Mackie...

Hi there, I'm really really new to recording, and I need a little help in setting up my Audiophile with my Mackie mixer. Basically I want to use my midi keyboard with my audiophile for recording, record guitar and bass through my mixer into my audiophile and use some sort of multitrack...

Hi, I've got an TB Montego II and I was wondering if I should get a SB Live! Value in order to use soundfonts with my midi controller. When I use Audio Compositor, I can access soundfonts. But should I get a SB Live! to use them instead? Will there be any difference? Thanks in advance

Hi, I'm looking for a MIDI keyboard to use with my SB Live! Value card. What I want to do is make use of soundfonts basically. Nothing fancy, just a simple keyboard to make synth sounds from the soundfonts. So do you know of any good ones under the 200 dollar level? Thanks

Hi, Basically, what I want to do is record guitar, bass, vocals, and MIDI stuff with a MIDI keyboard and soundfonts, using either Cakewalk or Vegas. I've narrowed my audio workstation setup schemes down to these 2: 1) Buy a Digi001 2) Buy a Mackie mixer, and SB Live! Platinum(for recording...

Hi, I want to set up my PC for home recording. I plan to record vocals, guitar, and bass (usually only 2 at a time), and edit them with Multitrack software such as Cakewalk, or Vegas. I also plan to add drumbeats from FruityLoops. After much reading, I'm thinking about going with a Gadget...

I'm looking for a preamp to use with a Gadget Labs Wave/496 card. I would like something below the $300 level, and also one with 2 inputs. I know there's that Audio Buddy from Midiman, but it doesn't have 48V Phantom power. Any other suggestions? [This message has been edited by...
