    Monster Performer MIDI Cables?

    I just bought a full set of the monster performer 500 series for every piece of gear that handles MIDI. Did I make a good decision or could I have done just as well with HOSA or a cheper brand?

    US-428 and USB 2.0 compatibility

    Delays and Skips in PLAYBACK

    I never had this probem until I changed MOBO and O/S. I was using win ME and had an old apollo pro mobo. Now I have the ASUS a7m266 and XP 2000+ and am using XP pro. No matter if its CD direct playback, Cubase 5.1 playback, or Wavelab, it will begin to skip into the song. I have not installed...

    Sampletank vs. sound module

    AMD processors VS. Pentium for Cubase

    Mixing and Mastering for Morons/ PSP Mixpack?

    Does PSP Mixpack add life to a fairly dry mixdown? I am not knowledgeable about mixing and mastering mainly because I do not have time to. I need a quicky solution that will add life to a mixdown with very little done to it except for normalizing and just a touch of compression and reverb...
