can't get mixer to work >_

so i just bought a brand new out of the box Alesis Multimix 8 usb power mixer and some brand new sure sm57 and 52beta mics (for recording drums). all in all i spent close to $900 on brand new equipment and when I plugin the 4 mics to the 4 mixer mic preamps and power it up and even switch on the phantom power, i get no responce or pickup indicators on the mixer.

Recorded session at wrong sample rate

Hey,
I've received Pro Tools 7.1- 44.1khz sessions that were recorded at 48 khz using a Mackie desk as the master clock.. As well the opposite way around. So if I don't have a clock to control it. it plays at slower or faster speeds.

Is there anyway to fix this so the session sample rate matches the the clock I'm using.
Hope I worded it right.
Yhanks.

Can't decide which setup to use

Hey guys, me and my band are trying to get some decent recordings for demos and whatever else. I've been reading up on here and some other sites and i can't decide what setup to go with. First off, i was thinking of going with a small 12 - 16 channel mixer and running it into my computer via firewire/USB into Cubase or some type of software.

How to start a music store?

I have been looking into purchasing an existing music store business in Illinois. However, the stores that are or have been available are not what I am looking for and would cost more to liquidate than to start off fresh.
Where do I start in opening a brand new music store for the sale of instruments and pro audio. The real estate is not a problem.
