Okay, I'm sick of being afraid of my soldering iron... :lol:

Here's what I'm planning to start with.

I have a ART ProVLA. I kinda like it on a lot of things, but I want better and more! So, here are the first things that I'm gonna attempt.

I am upgrading my recording system. I now have an older 16-bit ADAT system along with the BRC AND THE aleis X2 24-channel board. I could get the Alesis 24xz. That would work well with all my equipment. But.

I've noticed tons of free VST plugins all over the net. But I run Pro Tools LE on a G4, and I haven't seen ANY freeware RTAS plugins. Do they even exist? If anyone has any information on any sites where one can download freeware RTAS plugins, I would highly appreciate it. Thanks.

just purchased firepod/cubase. i have four mics plugged to the firebox and i'm only able to record on one track. how do i asign a different track for each mic? also, i was recomended to purchase an extra preamp for better sound quaility. i was told the difference would be night and day. any suggestions? i have a couple of (c3000)AKG cond.

just to wanted to make sure I've got the right idea...

I record on a power book using a MOTU 896. I'd really like to upgrade my converters, but as I'm on a laptop, need to run firewire. If I were to send my new A/D signal digitally to the Motu, then to my computer, I would bypass the Motu's A/D, correct?

Also, what would be a better connection, SPDIF or lightpipe? Thanks!

there was a study done by some recording engineers a while back to see what mic preamp was the best all around pre (i cant find the link to save my life). they tested api's, avalons and quite a few others. during mid experiment one of the engineers brought a Mackie onyx board just for sh*ts and giggles. they tried it and were amazed.

hey all

i want to buy myself a decent sound module to basically make. err music :D

i like making chilling/dance music like u hear in a blu bar or music by jakatta. At uni iam using a roland xv5050 which i think is quite good but i want something better than that

i am willing to spend around 400 (750usd) pounds

cheers

This is the second warning.

A local pawn shop had a couple of these mics and after doing a little research on them decided to pick one up for the relative bargain price they're selling them at. The mic is an odd one...a broadcast mic with built in amplifier and limiter that puts out a line level signal. It is set up to use a battery (that's no longer available) or phantom power.

Hi. I'm pretty muuch getting started on building my studio.

I'm having trouble with importing signal into Sonar 5.

When I moniter the input before recording, I'm where I want to be with my console as well as the meters in sonar. I'm barely in the red, no distortion, everything is great.

I record my track.
