I may be able to get a pair of KRK 6000 (passive) monitors for around $315 with shipping, is this a good deal? It was on ebay but the reserve was never met and the guy emailed me back after the auction was over so I think he may let me have them for the reserve price.

ok. am i crazy? why can't we use a DVD burner to backup our projects. isn't it a way better alternative to stock piling removable hard drives. you can buy a burner for about $250. you can buy dvd-rs for a buck a piece. you can fit roughly a half an hour's worth of 16-track, 24bit, 48kHz audio on a 4.7 gig dvd. so what gives?

can any1 help me with a link to this thing. i just need some info on it but cant find crapola on web.

hello everyone. i'm building a daw from scratch. i'm going to have 2 hard drives (1 for os and apps, 1 for audio) and 1 CD burner. i will have the onboard ata 100 controller and a promise ata 133 controller. my hard drives will be on the promise ata 133 controller. my question is where should i put the burner?

I don't mean to be negative or anything but what's the point of having three moderators for this forum when not one of them posts regularly or appears to take any interest in what goes on in this forum. My impression was that a moderator was supposed to work to get the forum going, set the tone and provide feedback.

I need advice on professional recording software out there, keeping in mind I'm on a budget. I have experience recording using cool edit 2000 and Cakewalk sonar, but I am not satisfied with those.

I need software to do recording and mixing. Then software for mastering. If it all comes in one package (I'm doubtful it does), let me know.

Give me your thoughts!

I've been thinking about this for a long time and thought I'd get some opinions from you guys.

The Plan:

Portable Part: Assuming I can take lines from the bands mixer.

Alesis HD24
Mackie 1604 Mixer (or bigger)
PatchBay (easy connections)
4 603s for choirs without mixers
couple of 57s, 58s just in case.
couple/three RNCs

I have read several articles about treating the studio for proper acoustics, and it confuses the hell out of me. Just when I think I have a plan, I read another article that turns my brain to mush.

This pertains mostly to monitoring and mixing as opposed to tracking...

Hi Everyone...

What's the consensus, or everyone's opinions on the best mastering plugins?

I hear great things about the Waves Native Platinum bundle.

I'm using Logic Audio Platinum 5.2 with a Mac G4.

Thanks.

Hi folks. I came over from HR.com after finding out about this forum. I thought I'd stop here at the top and say hello.

Forum topics look very interesting and I'll get to them all eventually.
