Basic Compression Question from A Newbie
Hi Everyone...
My first post here! Have a very basic question...
I do home recording (for fun) with an Akai DPS16. I have an RNC Compressor and would like to add a touch of compression to the final mix (going to my Philips CD burner).

Mackie d8b vs. . Yamaha 02R96
I am new in the market for a digital mixing board and was just about to buy a Mackie d8b (because a good friend has one and loves it) and then I recently found out about the Yamaha 02R96. I'm wondering if anyone has opinions one way or the other about these boards to help me choose what is the best product and how reliable it is. Thanks very much.

Frequency Analysis?
Since I learned that every instrument has its fundamental and harmonic place in the frequency spectrum my mixes are much CLEANER and each sound has its own little spot that it sits. The end result? I can hear everything no matter which system I playback on.

Sonar vs. . Digital Audio Labs
Now I'm really confused...
I've been going back and forth between Twelve Tone Systems(Cakewalk) and Digital Audio Labs(DAL) on a question regarding burning Audio CD's.
Cakewalk gave me a sample rate conversion process which uses my soundcard's ability to manually change sample rates.
Here is the link of how to do this.

is this safe?
hi,
I have a pair of tannoy reveal (non-powered) monitors and I am thinking of buying the Alesis RA-150 amps for the tannoys.
the instruction book for the tannoys said the recommended amp power is 50 - 100 W
but the Alesis power output are 150W, is it safe to go past the recommended amp power when hooking up monitor speakers to amps?

comparing hardware to plugins
Has anyone out there (here?) had the pleasure of comparing the hardware counterpart to your plugins Which ones and how did they stack up?
What are the closest to the real thing? The UAD? The Powercore? How close to the real thing was it? Does it really sound like a 1176? What's the record for the most question marks in a post?

Pro Tools LE to HD/mix
question: Is it hard to record stuff in LE [like the enticing deal that is the Digi 002] and take it into a PT mix or HD environment to mix it ?
how do these transfers work, and is it a pain in the ass?
coverters recomennded [price as consideration] to replace the digi ones?

I Don't Want Anyone to Think I Am Anti Plugins
Reading over my recent posts I could see how someone might think I was anti plugins That is not true. I have gotten great pleasure out of using DiNR, Fairchild 660, Joe Meequalizer, Speed, etc. I just have a healthy skepticism towards plugins Hey, you wouldn't want me to be a gullible parroter of ad copy would you? Doc.
