What formats do you guys mixdown to and why?
Is it DAT or CDR or tape or. .
Does anyone use an internal mixdown option i.e. audio export,if so what is the best dithering software?

Thanks
John

Has anyone been using the UAD-1 card with LAP
and the new Mac drivers?
Any comments?

Today i mixed down a track recorded on Cubase vst32.
One mixdown was mastered internally using the Cubase internal dithering uv22(ie audio export)the other was mixed to a CDr digitally via spdif.

I'm not sure but I think I've heard some things about this unit here, anyway, I was considering checking out the Entech 245.2 D/A converter box,however, it only works from a SPDIF or TOSLINK connection. So, I can’t quite figure out how to configure my system in finding the best way out of the box and into the Entech. My system is running at 96k from a MOTU 1296/Mac which only has AES dig.

Hello, All!

Could anyone please help me out.
How do you tell your sequencer program(I use cakewalk) to transmit system exclusive mesage
(for instance: change cutoff frequency) to your
midi synth.
(I've menaged to record this information from JX-8P to cakewalk and now It's saved in sysex wiew, but I don't know how to activate this thing back to the JX-8P.)

i read in sound-on-sound the other day that the Maxtor Fluid dynamic bearing motors run hot and may require additional cooling. seeing how i just ordered and received two of these for my ANUS do i have reason to be concerned? has anybody else used Maxtor drives with this technology? the last thing i want is a hot ANUS. i've got a fairly large case coming for the build.

i've heard the Focusrite Octopre is great...but the PreSonus Digimax looks good.

I really just need the MicPre's. the digital converters are nice...but just an extra. so you descide!

Focusrite Octopre (can't find a dealer, or price)
PreSonus Digimax $1299.00
PreSonus M80 $1799.00
ARX 8-Pre $650.00

Has anyone heard of these ADM mic preamp's? supposed to be discrete/Class A and supposed to sound " like an API"

Not too interested on what something sounds "like" but how it sounds period
