Forgive some basic questions but I would like to hear this being explained like I was just starting out.

I assume the analog gear I bought is calibrated correctly but matching the levels between all my analog equipment (converters, summing amps and processors) needs to be matched so everything flows openly and sounds the best is can. Yes and why?

Anyone with Samplitude Pro using the full version of Independence?

I'm using my M-Audio Fast Track Ultra with Logic Pro 9, and it seems to be limited to a 44.1khz sample rate for some reason? If I go in the Audio MIDI setup utility on my macbook pro, I can set the sample rate for the Fast Track there to the maximum (96khz). I can also do the same in the Fast Track's control panel software.

What controls the timing for the Click Track/Metronome when I'm recording?
Is it controled by the converters internal clock?

There have been many times where it seems like the metronome starts okay, then slows down at some point.
I'm currently using Sonar 8.5, but also had this problem when I was using a Roland BR-1600CD 16 track recorder.

Could someone recommend me a sample library.. specifically drums and percussion. Mostly I will be doing replacement or enhancement of live kits. I have the Massey DRT trigger and run PT9.0.5 on an Intel Mac. Plenty of horsepower. I do not like the Structure freeware that came with PT and I dont want to buy their upgrade at this time.

Hi There,

Ok, so I just recorded a bunch of tracks in Cubase on my bass guitar. However, I'm an idiot and had all the tracks as stereo even though bass is a mono instrument. Also, on my M-audio USB fastrack which I'm using to record, I had it set on stereo. When I recorded and played it back the sound would only come out of one earphone and the other one would just play constant white noise/static.

I know some folks don't put a ton on their 2-bus and others put everything and the kitchen sink on it. For my business I try to keep as many dollars in house as possible and mastering is often left in house. I get to work with an excellent mastering engineer a few times a year and I love it. I run my 2-bus way differently when I am sending him a mix.

I have Creative Prodikeys but it doesn't work on windows 7, I need drivers, everyone says go to http://www.proaudiosoft.com but that website is down and i looked everywhere, if anyone could help I'd appreciate it. (: thanks.
