I just bought a Firepod using the Cubase LE and I'm trying to get a BOSS DR5 drum machine to Start/Stop using MIDI. I've set the Firepod as the output and the DR5 as the receiver, set the MIDI on the DR5, checked the channels, etc. it ain't work'in. I need some help!! It seems this would be an easy task?

For the people who already have keyboard workstations and have a DAW, how much does the midi controllers like Korg Kontrol or Behringer BDF2000 has helped?

I Heard The The White Stripes did this for Get Behind Me Satan and The Beatles would always do it. My friend was telling me that they were physically cutting the tape "splicing it" and then putting the two tapes together so that is was kind of like a 2 ply tape with tracks on both tapes. Can anyone tell me if this works or not and if it does TELL ME HOW TO!
Thanks.

I'm in the market for some new monitors for my home studio. I'm looking for quality, nearfield - powered monitors. They will primarily be used for mixing Heavy Metal. So I need them to be tight in the low end with plenty of thump and clarity. I don't want something too bright as they're far too fatiguing for this genre.

I have a 002 with balanced and unbalanced 1/4" connections for the monitors and the analog outputs. I was given a good pair of studio monitors (Model SBM by Tannoy, if anyone knows them) that I want to use, but they have a screw-type connector - I apologize for not knowing the name of the connector type.

This has been my 'quit smoking' project for the last 10 months. It's been a very rewarding project. I'm glad it's finished, but have to admit getting there is just as fun.

if you are recording an acoustic using one mic, is it best to record it on two tracks and then pan one left the other right for a stereo effect, or will it sound all right on only one track? also would you record electrics on 2 tracks as well, or just do 2 guitars, one panned left, one panned right?

Hello all,

At long last, today I received an email from Benchmark announcing the first shippments of the long awaited ADC-1 converter. This is the companion to the DAC-1. Retail is $1,775.

Excuse the hype, but it's probably justified... the press release:

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Benchmark Media Ships New ADC1 Analog-to-Digital Converter

I have a MOTU 828mkII that randomly makes a really annoying high pitch squealing. It does this in when I am recording and playing back in Cubase and when I am just listing to Itunes. I have a PC with windows XP SP 2, but I have done the fix where you download the patch from MOTU and another from Microsoft and chance the regisry etc... Still with the random noise.
