Yo D-dog, check your PM. Got a hankerin' for that 160SL and the time is right.

hello everybody,

Hello and thanks in advance for all answers. I hear a lot about "fast" or "quick" preamp. Exactly what does that mean? Thanks again.

How many folks solder their own cables? I do some soldering at work which gives me a little advantage and plan to reconstruct my studios' entire wiring. I'd like to get some insight from a few "Pros" because I'm new to using a patchbay. Actually, I think I need a couple of patchbays for that matter.

Am using a Mackie 1604 for live board and came across a noise problem last weekend. The monitor output is an unbalanced TR jack and was connected to a 100 snake via a 1/4 TRS jack. This fed a TRS input into my amp on stage for the monitors.

Hi everyone - I have been reading the posts here for a while and now have a question for the experts here. It's pretty remedial but I haven't found a clear answer anywhere yet.
I have been doing some live recording using board feed/room mic into a mixer into an Alesis HD recorder. I am thinking about switching to something like a MOTU 828 or 896 into a laptop.

I'm looking at reverb units, and many of the ones I'm thinking about have S/PDIF I/O's. Seems nice, as I could use those now unused sp/dif I/O's from my DAW, but I want to make sure I'm drawing the right conclusions.

I just purchased the Renaissance Maxx bundle last night. Until now, I've just used the pluginsthat came with Pro Tools LE. what a difference! I did notice they tax the ole CPU more. I'm using a 850 MHZ Mac PowerBook with the Digi 002. I know it depends on the project and how many tracks...but I got up to about 6 different effects running...then it started to crap out.

i mainy produce r&b and hip hop .. i track most of my stuff now with a u87ai and or cad m9 through a valley audio 401 or Aphex 207. sounds good but it need great.
i'm looking at getting the Focusrite isa430MkII or the A-designs mp1 with a nice comp(distressor)

Each time I boot my computer I get an error message that the paging file is not set or too small.

This is new because when I setup the box I followed the WinXP tweak guide and set it. I think it was 512 min and max.

Now when I try to reset it, it will allow me to but when the computer reboots I get the same message and the paging file was not changed.
