We're preparing to gear up our new studio to be able to record full bands. Trying to decide which will be the best fit. Will have both Logic and Pro Tools(003 Rack) on the same daw, so would like to be able to control them both. Currently have a Focusrite ISA 428 which we'll be adding additional channels of outboard pres.

Can anyone recommend a reasonable priced good headphone amp I need a minimum of 4 channels. I'd like to stay around $100.00 if possible.

A external word clock improve my recordings by simply giving me a lower Jitter rate.. Or will this be pointless if I dont have great converters..

current interface : PreSonus Fire Station... no longer supported..

I've been using my trusty ol' 001 for about 8 years now on PC (with win98se) I've never sought (or indeed had the money to) to upgrade, but the Chandler Abbey Road Series of Plugins for LE have caught my eye - firstly i'll need to upgrade from v5.11 to v6.4 (at a cost of £25) and change my OS to XP (sp2) - which i've got discs for - thing is, with the 003 out and 002 prices falling - is it bet

Am intending to buy this -http://www.zzounds.com/item--MAC1202VLZIII

I also need an interface to run it through and not being all that clued in on the technical jargon though, I could do with recommendations on what kinda interface would compliment it best. Cheers.

Hi all,
I'm looking for which headphones to buy for my studio, mainly for putting vocals down and some editing work when my 2 year old is sleeping.
I want really good quality, which is best? Would $500 ish get something pretty special?
I'd apreciate any feedback.
Thanks
:D

Hi

I'm thinking of geting an LG S1 laptop for audio recording. Has anyone used an LG laptop for this purpose and if so how would you rate it?

Also, do you think it would be compatible with a Focusrite saffire interface?

My friend has a Mackie 32:8 that he wants to use to use for his recording studio. I'm not a recording engineer; I’m a PC tech. He asked me to find a way to record on his pc from his Mackie board.

Do I need to get him a special sound card or interface card? Is there a USB interface he can use? What software would you recommend?

It's a long article, but much like a train wreck, once you start, you'll be hard pressed to look away.

I think this speaks volumes about the state of classical music and obviously, something needs to happen.

Hi all,

I am looking at setting the sound system for a church. The size of the hall is not big, probably looking at an area (rectangular) of around 450 and can accomodate more than 300 but on average 100-150 people.

Church will have their own choir/band (singers, guitar, keyboard etc).
