if there was a shootout MOTU1296 vs. . Lucid8824...

If there was a shootout with a MOTU1296 and a
Lucid 8824, which would still be standing?

On a more serious note, Fletcher, I noticed that you are using DP to record with and also using a LUCID as a front end. Have you checked out the MOTU1296 against the LUCID on any of your sessions?

Wondering...

Waves mastering plugs

Hey guys. I just ordered the WavesC4 plug. One day after ordering somebody offered me the NPP pack (L1, C1, Q10 etc) for a fairly reasonable price. It was from 1997 however. (don't know which version, but with dongle)

My own mastering projects are not for mass-productions (2500+), only for smaller projects. Should I buy the NPP packet also, or will the C4 just do fine ?

Mic Preamps on MOTU 828

Hey- any word on the quality of the mic preamp amps on this baby? Thinking about buying a couple RODE NT1's or one NT2 (or maybe the NT 1000, or NTK) Or who knows what kind of Mic! I'm going down to Boston tomorrow to check out Mic's for myself. Can only read so many reviews before saying, Damnit!- you want something done, you gotta hear it for yourself! But back to the subject.

8000 & wordclock

i've got the TMD8000 with 2x DA-88 and 2x DA-38. Should I connect the wordclock interface, or not. If so, should the DA-88 with syncboard be master. What do I gain using this setup?

I used it since purchase with just the tdif cables and clock coming from dig.signal. never had a problem.

Payrate for sound effects?

Hello,

I am actually bidding for a job to design some sound effects for a project. It mainly doing stuff like footsteps, walking sounds, etc. I am going to record all new things for this project. I am not the most experienced in this aspect but it seemed a fun thing to do.

My question is what is an average pay rate for a job like this? Any help will be appreciative.
