Going from compact mixers to mixing consoles
Right now I am using an Allen & Heath 16 channel compact mixer. If I were to purchase a console in, Ohhh say 1 to 2 years, what would be some other the best ones to look at first?I do mostly harder music (lots of guitar).
Also...if the cheapest line is the $1000 to $2500 (stuff that I am using now).

Streaming Audio
Hi there. I'm just wondering what specs are most important when I'm only looking to record track. No plugin etc...
I'm running Pro Tools and a 002r with a Octo Pre and at current my 1.8gHz Celeron Laptop just does the job but it hiccups now and again.
I am using an external HD through firewire 400.

Thorax or 2000e?
I want to track vocals and acoustic guitar. They will be blended with keys, bass and drums direct, and violin by mic. Should I be looking at the 2000e yielding 2 channels for a stereo image for the guitar, or is a Thorax a better choice and have a duplicate track created for the mix?
I'm assuming the Thorax would be the preferred item for the vocals.

I use digital performer 4 and latency is almost none!

A question about Steinberg's wavelab 5
I made a recording of a vocalist and guitar but after the recording played it back and found that there was too much guitar and not enough vocals in the mix. Is there any way of splitting up the sound with wavelab 5 or anyother program so as it can be remixed, bearing in mind I only have one WAVE file.
Thanks,

Telefunken V72
Hi guys,
I'm considering to buy a Telefunken V72 for 400 euro.
I've heard it has a fixed 35 db of gain, is that true ? Are there any other things I have to know before I buy this (I think) great unit ?
It's serviced a week ago.
Thanks

Quad Pan Pot or Joystick Surround Controller
Hi, My name is Bill Amato. I do sound design for theatres in the cleveland ohio area. In July we will be doing a production in which I would like one of the effects to be the sound of whispering that travels around the audience by means of a manual control. Is there some form of joystick controller for this?
