I'm on a pretty tight budget having just gotten married and moving into a small one bedroom apartment. Needless to say, my "home" studio is still at my parents house and will be for quite awhile. My parents would like to keep the room as a guest room, but are allowing me to use the other half...

So, I'm doing covers with this band I'm in right now. Been playing guitar for about 6 years, so you'd think I'd know how to do this by now, but most of those years were with a strat, and now I have a G&L ASAT Classic with the sound hole and everything. And I think that's effecting my feedback...

I have a ton of old keyboards that I'd like to use, but whenever I use any sort of external sound, there's this problem I have. Here's an example setup: Kawai WK50, connected to computer using Hosa USB-MIDI Aux out from Kawai wk50 connected to input 1 of my Focusrite firewire Saffire Pro 24...

Hi, all. I recently bought a pair of Event 20/20p (powered) online and just got them today. For the first time I realized, I really have no idea what I'm doing connecting them! I know that I need TRS cables to connect them to the balanced outs of my interface, but what do I do with this weird...

When I was in college, one of the first things we learned was about bouncing midi to audio. Our instructor told us to just bounce everything to its own stereo audio track. That was more than a year ago. Flash forward to today, I'm working with several tracks that I've bounced to stereo, and...

Alright, so my old powermac g4 I think is finally starting to kick the bucket (monitor reads "MONITOR IN POWERSAVE MODE ACTIVATE USING PC" whenever I try to turn on the computer. its not the monitor as far as I know, because my keyboard and other usb devices don't turn on, so I assume the...

I'm going to be recording a vocalist/pianist tomorrow (for free of course, I'm not going to charge for amateur skills). And this is my first time recording a piano, excluding the one time I recorded my own as a background instrument on a song (where the creaky old quality of my piano was...

So, because of the recent problems with my other tube amp, I decided to switch back over to my Dr Z mazerati Jr. I was just trying to set up a tone, and it was playing fine yesterday, until it started to make a weird noise. Being the cautious person that I am, I decided to turn it off. The next...

Let me start of by saying that this is the second time I've experienced electric shock due to equipment, so I have a little knowledge. As I'm typing this my arm hurts. So, I was sitting and writing something in my room, playing guitar, and once I was finished I decided to record it. I turned on...

Ok, I've asked this question on here before, but I couldn't really ever find out what was wrong. Since then I've gotten a new audio interface and a new midi interface to hopefully streamline things, yet Digital Performer 5 still does not like any of my hardware synths. Here is my example set...

I recently purchased two large speakers and a very old yamaha mixer from a band I used to be in. The speaker cab is about 2ft 3.5in and then there are two actual speakers on each cab. A large one (15in) and a small one (8in) (the names for both of these is on the tip of my tongue.) I don't...

So, I posted a thread earlier, and thankfully I didn't get any responses on it because now there's a few new problems. First off, my set up: Powermac g4 1.25gigs of ram and a dual 533 mhz processor Boss gs-10 (mostly used as midi interface until I get the new one I bought) Blue snowball usb mic...

I figured this was probably a pretty newbie-ish question with a fairly simple answer, so I figured I'd ask here. So, I have a boss gs-10 as my midi interface (I have a new hosa one coming in the mail). The boss is hooked to my powermac g4, which is running Digital Performer 5 and Reason...

http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=926862&content=songinfo&songID=8889979 This is a song that I just finished up for my Audio108 final. Its not exactly the most interesting mix I would've liked to have done with this, but I was mostly just trying to avoid a large amount of...

Ok, so awhile back I had a question about midi stuff and getting it hooked up to my computer, but it didn't exactly get all my questions answered. First off, I know that midi is not audio. I know it isn't sounds and is just data. That being said, I'm fairly certain that what I want to do is...

Let me start off by saying that I only record at home and at school (taking audio production classes in college). I don't really care if the pedal is road worthy or not. I'm fairly careful with my equipment, so breakability isn't too much of an issue unless it is made out of paper or cardboard...

Hello everyone, I'm in no way a professional yet, but I'd like to eventually have a decent studio set up at my house for myself. I moved this from the midi help portion of the site because I figured in this sense I don't know much about what's going on so I'm definitely still a newbie. I don't...

Hello everyone, I'm in no way a professional yet, but I'd like to eventually have a decent studio set up at my house for myself. I don't use midi often, but I figure it'd probably be better to use it for keyboard tracks and drum tracks. Most of my equipment is stuff my uncle gave me because he...

So, I've been having what I've heard is a common problem: latency. I've tried a lot of stuff, but none of it seems to work. The software I'm using is tracktion. It came with my usb microphone I just got for christmas. I'm recording into my computer through a Boss GS-10 guitar effects system...
