does anyone know what kind of digital editing techniques were available in the early 90's the time of nirvana, pearl jam, AIC, soundgarden, RATM, tool, korn, green day, STP, etc., did they do most of their editing back then on tape? would the digital interface they used have been the Alesis HD24 or something similar? i believe this was a time before pro tools was really around correct?

hello, i am a musician, but new to recording work. i wish to do a professional quality recording in the most affordable way. so i prefer to buy a firewire interface rather than a usb interface. a Yamaha personal firewire interface GO46 has caught my attention. it has two firewire ports, both are 6-pin type. however, my dell laptop has only one 1394 firewire port, it is a 4-pin firewire port.

I just bought a pair of used JBL Eon G2 15" speakers. One is great. The other has a rattle in it. I suspect/hope it's something loose inside.
The rattle isn't continuous. It occurs mostly at a low/mid range. I'm using them to monitor Vdrums and, when I hit the second highest tom, it rattles.

so what exactly does this mean, via native? no editing capabilities or what can someone explain this to me?

What are the general feeling of audio quality coming out of low/mid priced digital setups. I use a Tascam US-122 and cubasis. I am not very satisfied with output.
Guitars, percussion, vox into 57/58's, RODE K2, Nakamichi condensers, AMPEX tube preamps.

Ok, since I'm an upfront kind of guy here it is: the SM57 is a practical, handy, inexpensive mic for multi-purpose studio use. Perhaps an industry standard. What's the next step up in practical, handy, but a little more expensive, mics? Those of you who don't like long posts can stop here and reply.

i'm in the process of shopping for an external converter. My budget is under $2000. (lavrys are too expensive for me right now, myteks - i don't want to run into customer service type of issues if ever i have problems in the future) so my choice kinda boiled down to either rosetta 200 or RME ADI-2. rosetta is $1800 whereas RME ADI2 is $700.

Hi, I am looking to start a semi-professional studio. I already have an Otari Status 18r 24 track recording console with patchbay, an Alesis HD24 multitrack, Event tr8 active monitors, a 16 channel XLR snake with 4 TRS returns for headphones, headphones, a headphone amp, 3 D-25 to 1/4" TRS snakes for connection from the multitrack to the console, a power conditioner, a rack, and rack screws.
