So how many of you mixing inside the computer use an analog summing device? Opinions on these vary a lot really. I work with Logic and I'm not to sure about the summing qualities, especially with a lot of tracks. Also I hear people say Cubase/Nuendo sounds better in that department...

Thank you to all of you who have posted a unmeasurable amount of info regaurding building your own DAW.
Unfortunatly for me too much information is dangerous
I would like some help in putting together a decent system for my studio so I will give some info that may help those in the know what may work best for my particular setup.

I have Cakewalk Plasma, Cakewalk Homestudio, Cool Edit Pro 2.0, Wavelab, Cakewalk Pro Audio 9, and Soundforge 5.0 and 6.0. First I would like to know which is the best and some techniques for any of those. Next I just brought a mic that I have hooked to a mixer which is hooked to my computer.

This is my issue, I have in my home office a KORG d1600 that contains the drum tracks for an album my band is working on. I wish to transfer these files to my version of ACID Pro 5.0 so that I can add VST effects as well as visually mix the sound without having to use a stylus on a monocrome mini-screen.

Ok two things . Why are these some of the best vocals I've ever heard ? and how do I get that sound towards the end of the breakdown that sounds like the Matrix ? and do I sound retarded right now ?

Me and my buddy are looking for a new soundcard for his Dell. the computer is soley made for recording purposes and only has acid and Sonar on it now. we want a serious soundcard for it, as we are purchasing a humongous studio mixer soon. any suggestions?

I was wondering what the best programs were for Computer djing, Recording and Beat Making. How are programs like Final Scratch v 2.0 and Emu and what are there capabilities? I'm willing to save my money to any amount and Me and my bud are looking to owning a label one day. Any info would be greattttt.

Im saving up for 2 Technic sl1200 mk5's and am debating a mixer between a numark dxm06 and a numark dm1200 any suggestions? I love house and trance but I also enhoy hip/hop beats what kind of stuff would I need alongside these tables? Im also going to wanna venture into the world of scratching.

Hey guys, What exactly is the best and most professional way to deaden a rooms sound for band recording and such? Where can I find more info on this? Any info would be greattt :D

Me and My buddy are getting into productions seriously and we're both 16. We have been recording rhymes and making hem their beats for a while but we wanna start recording bands. We have a small booth for like 2 people for the rhymes but we have a whole room next to it in the basement which we are gonna soundproof for the band recordings, what is the best way to go about this? special mics?
