Researching this online has been an absolutely mind-numbing experience. Then I came across this site and am hoping for some no-nonsense advice on spec'ing a decent mid-level laptop to get my music ideas down and do some basic mixing. One guitar/vocal in and I'm guessing no more than 10 simultaneous tracks during mixing with some virtual instruments and MIDI.

GA is a Swiss company, they have two products that may be of interest to those who would like to have external pre's and compressors in which to front load their signal:

Well, after 7 years, we've called it quits. Some guys are relocating, some have their interests... we did the last of our final two shows last night at The Akron Civic Theater, and it was great. The first show was nearly sold out, last night was sold out just before show time.

Anyone have any experience with Revelation Guitars from the UK?

I come across a lot of 70's and 80's Virtual Instruments, but I am curious to play around with more modern sounding Synth's.

Any suggestions? Price range should be decent

I use REAPER.

what a great performance on the voice tonight

He rocks

A folk group I was mixing months back had an upper freq problem that drove me nuts. After listening for hours, trying to de-ess but at the same time trouble shoot for the sake of "next time they go into the studio!" it will be better than this mess!

ya know, if Vinyl was still here, we would all be better off (musically). And not for the sound, because I do not believe vinyl sounds sonically better, but because we needed to take care of our records, we could read more about the music and because... no one could copy them. Then cassette came along. CD... the end.
