I keep hearing pops and clicks during playback and bouncing. My system is a PC based PIII 550Mhz / MOTU 828 using ASIO drivers and Logic Platinum software.

I've heard about setting buffer settings to avoid this...

Is this the problem and if so...where should they be set?

Thanks! zip >>

Hi everybody, my PC, Mona card and whole backup audio thesis has been stolen and (aside of being very pissed off) I'm looking for a new portable setup such as iBook 600 + MOTU 828. I'm used to work with Nuendo VST + Halion. Is somebody using these on a Mac? How is it running? Problems?

Thanks

Did any of you that went to the AES Convention check out the OWL-System Nearfield Monitor put out by Embracing Sound Experience? If so, how did it sound? The design that they have looks real interesting.

Hi folks.

I hope this isn't impolitic. I'll keep it brief.

I'm selling my Neve Melbourn 12x2 mixer.

For details email me: whynot@well.com

Thanks, that is all...

Any body have any tips on carving out a nice, tight, punchy bottom end during Mastering? Is it a function of EQ? Multi-band compression? Both? Something else?

Also, regarding M/B Compression:
How do different attack/release settings affect the different freq. bands?

Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.

Hello,

I have 2 Empirical Lab Distressors that I have owned since the spring.

Since Zythum Studios has been "under construction"
(alomost the entire year!), I have really not had the oppertunity to really tweak them thru the testing grill.

I would love to hear from you all on what your expierences have been with The Distressor.

I have a M149 and IMO it's a very good mic, although very expensive IMHO. :)

I read opinions every now and then about it on the forums, a while ago Jon (Atack) said the mic was losing shootout after shootout and Jules said he has two M149's and he uses them only on toms.

Now please don't misunderstand me, I respect Jon's and Jules' opinion very much although I disagree.

Hi every one,

I had recently posed the qestion "Is Quantegy going out of business?", because it was rumored from a music branch in my area that this was the case!

However I have investigated a little further into the matter and have discovered that Quantegy is indeed NOT GOING OUT, but simply had one of thier NJ supply houses closeing, so the sale was from this outlet.

Does anyone have experience of "Pro Tools FREE"? I have read unfavourable reports of its playback of work recorded on Pro Tools LE, but surely the point is:
How does work recorded on "FREE" playback on
1) "Pro Tools FREE" itself
2) "Pro Tools LE" (most important).

Has anyone had experience with the Crane Song Spider /8 ch. preamp/A to D unit?
