to maximize quality in productions ranging from rap to country, with an emphasis on 'indie' rock music, where would you invest up to $25,000? keep in mind that purchases will be made on a line of credit, and expenses will have to be justified with increased rates, quality, etc.

i currently own:

which would you purchase, and why? do the sonic improvements (if any) in the ssl justify the increase in price? in either scenario, the rack would most likely be filled with mic preamp x 2, eq x 2, compressor/dynamics x 2

I'm talking about a 3 way switch with standby on the bottom, off in the middle & on is up.

to go from standby to on you have to move through off. I was told that it was off so briefly that it did not matter.

Seems like off, standby, on is a better way.

Please edumacate me on whether this matters or not.

Thanks

Hi,

I would like to hear your opinion... What are the best comp & eq plugins? If the money is not the object. I am using Cubase sx3.

I just got EastWest's Colossus MIDI software and I use Cubase to record. Currently, I have figured out how to track the sound from Colossus as just an audio track in Cubase, but not MIDI. Is there a way to record MIDI data into Cubase using the MIDI Effects from Colossus? Is this a "rewire" thing I'm looking at? Any advice?

Is this discontinued or was it vapourware? I don't see any info on it at Sebatron .com, but Soundpure.com shows a picture and a sales blurb.

What's the story?

After having read the recent article in the September edition of Sound on Sound about mastering in Pro Tools I was wondering if anyone out there has mastered their own tracks this way in pro tools i.e.

hi i recorded a song and added cuabse Eq's and effects to it, when i did a audio mixdown to a mp3. file it lost all of this infomation ! is this ment to happen? and if so is there anyway of making it not do it

thanks

I was intrested in getting some drum software. does anyone know what would be best for me. I'm into hard rock/metal. i know theres BFD and drum kit from hell. Any Opinions would be great. thanks

For hard rock music, what do you people all think the best way to track/pan the guitars is?
For a band with 2 guitarists where one isn't necessarily the lead, I've been recording 4 tracks and balancing them evenly.

-GuitarA - 2 tracks, one extreme left and one extreme right, both at the same level
-GuitarB - 2 tracks, same setup
