DAWs are here to stay and they bring a lot of good features to us, and I like it. But this is what bugs me about working in DAWs:

- Sometimes I feel like everything is not in time, as if the time-alignment between tracks differs from time to time. Especially true to soft-instruments, but audiotracks aswell.

Has anyone used this mic yet. Sounds interesting, but I really don't have the $100 to waste if it's not all it's cracked up to be.

Hi,

Hi all,

has anyone had any first hand experience with the Mackie onyx 8 ch pre, I know its still kinda new, thought I'd ask anyway, I'm gonna need an 8 ch pre soon, for the bucks it doesnt seem too bad, not the best, but not the worst!

or, anyone got any recomendations for an 8 ch solid state pre?
Nothing too over the top price wise.

thanks,

Sammyg

I need to know if I'm passing over something silly here that renders this idea entirely useless.

So I need to record some drums. My mixer has 4 mic channels which then runs to my into my 2 ch. interface. (DOH!)

Obviously, 2 channels for drums is pretty...inadequate. So here's what I was thinking.

Hello,
I am thinking about buying a Sebatron Vmp-2000e. Should I get one with VU? How important is a VU? it is $300 more. The 4000e model does not have VU at all. Thanks for advice.

Ive used cool edit pro for sometime now, but I'm wondering how to activate the tempo to enable me change it. In short how do i change the tempo in cool edit pro

hi, i'm looking at a little front end for my DAW system to run a mic or two in and also give a little added juice to the weak outputs of my nord modular and modular G2...

i'm looking at either the Focusrite 428 or the Toft ATC2...

i'm leaning towards the focusrite.. with its 4 channels and ADC option.

Just when I thought there was no way mics could get any cheaper:

Behringer announced the C-2 "matched pair" of small condensers with pads and LF rolloff switches, microphone stand adapters, windscreens, stereo-bar and transport case. Suggested list is $59.99 -- for the pair.

Unbelievable.

I'm guessing that is 800mbps? the old standard was 500mbps?
I've got a laptop, my only complaint is that it doesn't have firewire. I've seen PCMCIA adapters with firewire ports. I think they were 500mbps.

Do they make 800mbps? Is 500mbps fast enough to track 8 stereo channels?
