If I am using the fireface 800 through a PC do I need a soundcard? I realize this is an extremely ignorant question and apologize for asking it, but I want to know for sure. Thanks.

I know it sounds like a dumb question, but i want to boost my I/O by eight, and it sucks that theres not a way to use both interfaces at the same time in the same app. I have a 1010Lt and i want to upgrade to a better interface, and i'd prefer not to use the 1010, so the firepod seems like a good choice, but i can't use it at the same time, which sucks. Does anyone know a workaround?

Hello guys

I have a good computer for audio already know its good enough at least .

now should i get an mbox. its me and my brother only. we have been working together on stuff for almost a year now and we are moving into bigger place were we can dedicate a whole room to a studio.

I'm going to be producing mixing recording etc . he is behind the mic.

I am receiving static noise during multi-track session playback on 3 or 4 of the lead guitar tracks. When I mute all but one of the tracks, they play fine. When they're all combined, the static is present. I'm stumped.

P4 3.2
Intel motherboard
500 mb ram
80 gb ATA HD
Soundblaster Audigy2 ZS sound card

hey whats up guys

Me and my brother have been working in my makeshift studio for about a year!

we are moving into bigger place now and can dedicate a whole room into a studio?

I'm selling all my old equipment and starting fresh!

i produce(make beats handle the recording mixing etc.)

he just spits really (damn good) anyway.

The problem i'm having is with the Latency in the Cubase program. I lowered the buffer rate from 5 to 3 which is the lowest i could get. Should i change the buffer size as well? I have that set at 5512.

Hi everyone,

Does anyone know of an online service that offers music parts to be recorded by proffessional musicians and sent back to you via email? I just cant find the right instrumentalists for some of my arrangements. .any idea's?

I just got my GT Brick today, and it's got a balanced XLR out.

My other preamps use 1/4 inch out, which I plug right into a line-in on the E-mu Audiodock.

What's the best way to plug the Brick in? Get an XLR-to-1/4 inch cable, or just go into the XLR mic input on the audiodock?

Hello,
I'm trying to use my Dell laptop X200 as a portable recording device. I want to set it up to record my bassoon playing to send for auditions for grad school, and also for personal recordings. I was wondering 3 things.

I have been reasearching for about 2 months now and after pretty much deciding on a Dual 1.8GHz Power Mac (I would add about a gig of ram), an Mbox w/Pro Tools, and probably Reason, someone has turned me onto the idea of just getting a nice digital recorder instead.
