Ok I've pretty much decided to keep saving my money up for a Crane Song spider. Like most people I havent actually heard one but have heard other Crane Song products and love them. As of now I dont have any big name gear (I record on a digi 001 with Mackie pres). The only problem is if and when I do buy the spider I won't be having any extra money for a long time.

I bought an 828 from musicians friend's warehouse in Kansas City for a whopping $99 because it had no manuals, software or anything but the unit. I downloaded the win 5.x drivers from motu's site and I've muddled my way through getting nuendo and logic to both work with it, but I'm confused by the monitoring and routing.

I tested three clocks for a friend and some people could not hear a difference. I was wondering if you guys can hear the difference in different clocks, if infact there is any audible difference.

The clocks were:
lucid gen-x6
lucid ad9624 internal clock
m-audio delta 1010 internal clock.

Hey Nate! A friend has a DAW and uses emagics, he has midi capability and sounds. His problem, he has a bass drum Wavestrack that he can't use, some distortion (clipping I expect), renders it useless to mix. He wants to trigger a midi bass drum track, useing the BD wave track as the trigger. What plugin , or set-up within his DAW would he use to accomplish this. Any ideas?

What's the deal on this thing? I'm co-engineering a CD-recording of my friends band at a studio that has it. (This is the first time I do this, I mostly mix live and fool around on a VS1880 standalone...) The engineer/owner told me it's equipped with Apogeeconverters and prefers it over his pro-tools system (4x882I/O and MOTU timepiece).

I am new to recording and just got a digital 4-track machine. I have figured out how to record music to the smart card but now want to transfer the song to my PC where I can then burn a CD or make an MP3. What hardware/software/shareware/freeware might I need to facilitate the transfer of the data to the PC.

Imagine you have the perfect studio and the perfect control room. What next?

How do you work? do you follow the signal path and start with a great mic collection, then pre's then a desk etc?

I can take care of the mic collection but what is the ultimate desk? I'm not too bothered about features, I'm after sound quality! I guess this means analog.

I have heard that you can automate MIDI-compatible effects units using a sequencer. MIDI is very confusing to me, but I'm sure it will cut down on the number of hands I need for mixdown! There are a number of projects I'm working on that need effects punched in and out. What are the best (affordable) sequencers for this purpose, and does anybody have any tips on using them?

Dear Friend,

We are very delighted to inform you that we have released
a PSP VintageWarmer demo version for MAC and PC.
