I am in the process of setting up a small studio to do some recording for my bands Indie label project. My requirements are rather odd in that we have banjo, electric guitar, acoustic guitar,
fiddle, mandolin, drums (full kit), elect. bass and vocals. (Not all inst.
@ once, only five band members.)
So far I have:
2 Echo Layla 3G's

just bought the MOTU few weeks, great unit, but having probs with midi timing. as no midi on 2408,

My M-Audio Firewire Solo card seems to be the cause of an unavoidable consistant feedback. I am running 1/4" plugs from my turntables through my Mackie then into the M audio solo. The M Audio card is connected to my laptop through a firewire 800 cable. Im confident its not from the source (turntables) because I have recorded from vinyl using these tables through other sound cards.

Are there any users of iDrum on here? Would you recommend it? I am intrigued by the fact that you can import your own samples/sounds in aif or wav format and create beats with it.

However, I heard that iDrum only supports 4/4 time beats. Is this true? (I hope not, what a horrendous limitation that would be).

Thanks...

Ok, so I'm on a very strict budget. Would i be better off with the Behringer control surface and Tascam US-122 or just the US-428?

Now if i got some money, which i might, what kind of quality can i expect from the FW-1082?

what do you think about minimac for real-time audio apps like ableton?

Hi I'm newbie Amanda and just wanted to say hello to all :)

Want to spend no more than $500 on two omnis microphones. I know this isn't a lot but all that I can spend at the moment. Or what about for just one. Prefer a small diaphragm.

Suppose I was using a Delta 1010 with Cubase to do my recording. What I want to do is send tracks to an outboard effects rack. Can this be accomplished with just the 1010 and Cubase or do I need a mixer for this?

Thanks

Does any know where I can get information on "deep" modifying my Mesa 50/50? I can't find that info anywhere...thanks.
