I have noticed that the default release time on both the Waves L1 and the Masterlink Limiter is 10 mS. That seems very short to me. I have experimented by using extreme boost (-12 to -20 thresholds) and adjusting the release for minimum artifactts. I ended up with release in the 0.8 to 1.5 S region. I used these figures, with seemingly good success, to master with thresholds at -4 to -6.

OK guys and gals...what is the standard "newbie question" that we have all seen posted about 3 million times on every forum from here to Timbuktu?

"I am getting pops and crackles in my song...waaaaaa!"

There are tons of reasons for this...buffer values...defragging the HD...CPU usage overload (too many channels and/or plugs), etc...

Steinberg has released the latest Cubase SX update, 1.03 which fixes some serious bugs (mainly audio dropout and Midi timing issues), but also adds support for the new Mackie Control board (a clone of the Logic Control also made by Mackie).

Here is the link to the PC Update Page:

HI!

Well, here it is...soon to be 64bit processors from AMD...soon to be new processors(still 32bit from Intel)...

I am about to embark into my journey into the music business. (Local for now.) I have been fortunate to have been in another profession for 25 years and am very comfortable financially so I really do not need this work to make a living.

hello all. i will bullet point and skip platitudes, so thank you in advance.

·new project, prosumer/pro gear.
·targeting a&r looksees, for funding, backing.
·will have mastered at pro shop (i live in Bay Area CA), small demo pressing.
·desire excellent commercial quality, but not commercial release.

Hi friends,
I will be soon recording a Horns Band, with 35/40 very young but good musicians on a budget project.
I have previuosly recorded nice small Camerata CDs and horns section inside my studio, but now it will be a complete different approach.
I have the following mics on here:
2 AT 4050
2 C3000B

So I need a little support/advice from the community here. I'm an audio engineer working in and A/V production facility that is well established, but isn't always too forward looking in gear upgrades/updates. However, we have one of the highest hourly rates in our market, higher even than some fully equipped music tracking/mixing studios.

My P4B266 is currently on BIOS Revision 1003. I noticed on the ASUS site that there is 1005, 1007, 1008 and 1009. Are any of your ANUS's using one of these versions? Is there any justification for upgrading to any of these versions? if so which do you recommend?
