So for the longest time, Ive been using a Powermac G5 running reaper with an original Mbox. I don't know the exact latency I was getting, but it was low enough not to cause any issues. With my first year of college coming up in a month, I went on a whim and bought a new(ish) 2011 MBP and...

Ok, so I think I finally have a good understanding of the modes after reading a few articles. Can you tell me if Im wrong? C Ionian would be the C Maj scale played over C. C Dorian would be the C Maj scale played over Dm. C Lydian would be the C Maj scale played over F. So then G Ionian would...

But it didn't work, cause Im frustrated as ever! Bought a older G5, running 10.5. Sweet deal, very powerful for the software of it's day. Then, after doing LOTS OF RESEARCH (not kidding) I bought an old M-box paired with Pro Tools 6.1 on eBay. I install 6.1, all is good, until I try to run...

Just bought this amp today. Seemed to work fine when the guy showed it to me. Now I have it home and there is a high pitched beep that is constant unless you crank the volume, but the ring/beep gets louder with the volume. There are some other things Im trying to work out, but this is the...

Hello, I just solved a problem that has been bugging me for awhile, and felt compelled to share the solution. I have been having problems with my Dell Laptop, and Reaper. Im sure this is common though, even with other DAW's and types of laptops. I went to this reaper forum, which was suppose to...

Im looking at buying a cheaper desktop for my studio in progress cause my laptop isn't all the great. While looking on ebay, I came to realize that a decently refurbished mac G5 for around 200$ has similar/better specs then a PC in that price range. I know that it is pretty much a dead end...

Hello, I just got a older used M box(original) and got pro tools 6.4 up and running. Now I am struggling with this: “Audio processing is conflicting with other CPU tasks. If this occurs often, reducing the "H/W Buffer Size" in the Playback Engine Dialog may help prevent the problem. (-9129)” My...

How does this sound I would like to play at a coffee shop's open mic night, but Im not sure if I can really sing. I posted wish you were here a while ago, and was told that I suck, which I already had figured. But I found a new song, a little more in my range which I think is not half bad. Tell...

Im thinking about playing at a local coffee shop during their open mic night. Ive played there before but had other people sing. I really want to sing and play, but Im not so sure about my voice. Here is a crappy recording of me covering wish you were here. I messed up a few times on guitar, but...

http://pro-audio.musiciansfriend.com/product/Steinberg-CI1-Advanced-Integration-USB-Studio?sku=H65538 I need an interface that will give me reasonably high quality sound, so will 24 bit be enough? I don't have much more then $100 to spend. I will be running it through reaper. It doesn't have...

I need something simple that will sound pretty close to what my mix is. Is there anything around 100 dollars that will suit me until I can afford better monitors? Thanks

I am about to start a project whith my school's choir director where we are making a cd recording the choir. The problem is I only have a desktop and since the majority of recording will be done at the school, I need a laptop to record on. So what would you say is the minimum requirements on a...

Hello, I am building a studio in this small room in my basement and was wondering what kind of ideas you guys have as far as walls, celing and flooring. As you can see it is very rough, but can be fixed up. My main sound problem is creeking/footsteps/buzzing from the fridge, all which is from...

Today I was talking to a professional sound proofing man about soundproofing a small room in my basement for a studio. He told me to hang drywall off of sound isolation clips to prevent sound transfer from upstairs. Has anyone used these before and how effictive are they against just screwing it...
