For the last month we've have had a fare amount of traffic from Sonic Foundry but not one post here from them :( They don't promote their site or contribute here at all. We've had at least 4 main reps register from that company but not one has even made a buzz. Really strange and discouraging.

I see that the 104 exciter is being discontinued. It's so cheap. Is there a better Aphex exciter still around? Do people still use it? No one seems to much like the PT plugin , but can this £125 box be better?
Any other exciter recommendations?

Thanx

I am looking for some good software to burn Red Book quality CDs suitable for duplication (that's assuming that we produce anything that is good enough! :) )

I use Sound Forge 5.0 as my stereo editing software, and unfortunately, they no longer sell or support CD Architect.

I am currently using Easy CD Creater Pro, v. 5.0, but I don't think it supports Red Book standards.

Hi guys
I'm doing a swap deal with a buddy where I'm getting rid of my 3630.
I use it only for live vocals where it does the job for me.
I have an RNC for recording but I prefer the 3630 live.
I know, go figure right?

Ok, what do you guys do to turn that “nice” natural sounding tom, with overtones and everything, into something that would fit right into a Nirvana or STP record?

And let’s not drift off into mic placement, tuning, heads, etc. The drummers gone home and it’s time to mix!

:w:

I'm mixing stuff in pro tools and I can never seem to come to a stopping point. Normally after the first mix I'll burn a CD and take it home and come back and fix whatever mistakes I pick up on a bunch of different systems. The only problem is that I keep coming back and doing stuff and overproccess everything and in the end the first rough sounds the best.

hi, I am newbie here and i wanna ask to experienced people here.

thanx, yasu

From EQ mag - Re OSX - "the switch is more than a matter of porting code over to the new OS. Digidesign's Pro Tools, for example, doesn't just operate as a software layer on top of the system - it addresses proprietary hardware, too. "OS X 10.1 addresses the hardware, Brown says, "Whereas under OS 9, the apps address the hardware directly. The new audio system is device-class compliant.

I'm looking for a decent pair of headphones to use in combination with monitors for mixing. My current thoughts are Beyerdynamic DT770Pro or the Sennheiser. HD 580. Anyone have a preference?
