New to the forum? Say hello, tell us a little about your self. Meet the gang :p

Welcome to HomeRecording Forum! :guitar:
Hi everyone!! I'm AC and I'm attempting to learn how to create, record and produce mainly electronic/synth/experimental sounds. All of this is very new to me. Currently working my way through Reaper as my DAW. Also fumbling my way around understanding various Korg Volcas, the MicroKorg and the KP3 (will upgrade to the KPV hopefully soon). Thanks for the add, hope to chat with you guys soon!
 
Is there anyone that mix their home studio with a record studio?
 
Hi All, looking forward to being a part of this community. If I have a technical question that's essentially, "Has anyone run into this before?", which forum/subforum would be the best place to post it? Thanks!
 
Never feel comfortable with this. I'm not new to music, just this forum. Classically trained pianist from young age, not skilled or attentive (ADHD) enough to be a concert level player. I wasn't exactly devastated at that but the school I attended had turned some out, as well as music professors.. Turned electronic composer, and paid dues playing rock/blues in bars all along the Chitlin' Circuit while in undergrad at Ole Miss while studying philosophy and physics during the week. The "weekend warrior" if you will. What fun. Maintained home studio for many many years, now looking for highest iteration ever. Burl Mothership and Apogee are great converters and I like using them. Looking for an SSL XL-desk to mix on. I use Reason to write and Pro Tools to track. Not too elaborate on outboard though I do very much like the Altec Green Face preamps for that Class A crispy clean no caffeine sound. Published author of several books on Amazon, Podcaster on Philosophy and Physics. Married to an incredible Italian lady. Mississippi native but live in Dallas Metro, better for trading stocks and book career. Pardon if this seems bawdy or showy, not the intent. That's essentially scratches the surface. I'll not talk about the French Aristocracy.
 
Welcome BaronEstelle! You have a lot of pedigree there.
Bought my XL-Desk new a year ago, but looks like they are discontinued now.
I'm impressed with it. Very versatile.
The last second-hand one I saw was going at £7000 (empty). They are out there.

The Newbie forum catches a lot of topics, so sometimes someone looking for info on certain issue might miss that thread. There are company specific Subforums for hardware, Zoom, Tascam, Alesis, Boss/Roland, and software, ProTools, Cubase, Reaper, Ableton, etc. which might be more appropriate.

I think many regular users click on "New Posts" which will show new posts in all the forums. Hence you will probably get a response.

For someone looking for specific info on a particular piece of hardware or software, they may just go to that specific area, which means they would miss anything posted in the Newbie topic, or maybe the Digital Recording and Computers forums. Someone looking at topics in the Zoom forum would likely never see your post about the H6studio power draw.

If you have a question regarding specific hardware or software, or a technique, simply look over the list of topics and choose one that seems appropriate.

Thanks for the heads up. I went with the Newbie forum, only because the Zoom forum seemed a bit quiet...
 
Thank you Sir Raymond. I'm seeing them used from $12K USD on up. The new one's come unloaded for 20K, Half loaded for around 26K, and the fully loaded for #30-32K. This eeks into Origin 16 territory but the origin is still teething and the XL is well established. It's also consistent with their older build setup, whatever that was. I just like the XL better basically, with 44 inputs at mixdown it's perfect to use with a DAW and an X-rack for mic-pres and things. Over here we see 4056E/G's and 4064 XL9000's in the 50's and 60K range. It would be incredible to have one of those jacuzzi console monsters. That's what I'd do, I'd set up a jacuzzi right next to it so my wife and I could get out cuzzi on then just step out of the jacuzzi and start mixing. That's the thing to do. I do have the SSL X-rack but it's gnarly confusing to figure out so I haven't even bought a single card for it after ten years. Those things aren't cheap. The word is you can essentially reproduced a 160 channel 9000 SA console with these things, but that
would be one expensive console. I'd like to have 8 channels with EQ to augment something that needed augmenting with SSL. Since I've had the Burl Mothership it's gotten to the point where the sound quality is beyond what I'd ever heard anywhere in the home arena so I have to look beyond to the higher shelf stuff to be able to keep or else build out a way to have that quality from end to end. They call it expensive if nothing else.
 
Hey everyone! Been a long time lurker and just joined up.

I'm a (very) low budget home recordist using Reaper with Windows 11.

Equipment List : Win 11, Reaper, MOTU M2, Behringer HA-400, AT2020, Le Bass pedal, AKG361 phones, Jazz bass, Stratocaster. I have a pair of 8" monitors I've packed away for an upcoming move.

Plugins (some) : Amplitube, BFD3 drums

That's it for now. Lots of great advice in these forums.

Hello and what an honor to be here! I'm a graduate of BBA and a home recording enthusiast! I love being pragmatic because I can't afford what I want.
It's so nice to meet ya'll!

Howdy! Another long-time lurker, finally made an account. I'm a musician (vocals, piano, guitar, drums in about that order... well, OK, drums definitely a distant 4th!), and I've done some home recording, starting with a Radio Shack tape recorder in the 1980s, and moving to digital as soon as I could. I don't do it enough to be very good at it, but maybe an old dog can pick up a few new tricks.
 
Absolutely! The day you stop learning, is the day you die! Lots of us claim to know everything (we don't) but it's amazing what little tips pop up! Welcome.
 
Hi everyone,

I'm Vitaliy, joining in from Zagreb, Croatia. I've been reading threads here on and off for a while and finally decided to register and say hello.

My background is software development crossed with a long-standing interest in recording and home studios, and at some point the two collided: I build audio tools under the name Arvital Audio. The main thing I've made is a small utility for getting system audio into a DAW or straight to a WAV file, which came out of my own annoyance with aggregate devices and virtual cables.

Mostly though I'm here to learn and take part, the mixing and recording-techniques discussions especially. Looking forward to hanging around and getting to know the place.

Cheers,
Vitaliy
