Hi folks
It's festival time and I'm thinking about tossing my NT5s into the mic box. Anyone know if they can take a few bumps and bruses?
This should probably be in the live forum but I'm hoping that more of you will see this post here.

Time to load that truck.

Dear all knowing recording gods . . .

okay - sorry about that. But now you're reading . . . and after that cat-washing post I feel a little more open to adding some spice to my posts!

I've heard little about this - and it may be more of a mastering question - but can someone fill me in on the theory of using a sidechain and subsequent EQ with a compressor? thanks!

I am now typing on my wireless keyboard in my living room!

WOOOHOO!

Yes, you heard it! One 33 foot 1394b cable running from my server into my living room allowing me internet access on my TV!

Why you ask...BECAUSE I CAN! HA HA HA HA HA HA!

Opus :D

Yes, it's out...Big Ben Master Clock box with a jitter level so low it's virtually un measurable!

big Ben is hitting the shelves as we speak and is the ultimate studio unit to have to get everything super tight in terms of clocking!

Go get em damn it! :D

Any questions and I'll be more than happy to answer them for you!

Hi there people,
I'm a newbie here and experiencing some problems with virtual instruments...
basically I need to know how to be able to maximise my system to enable the playing of many vsti instruments and/or many instruments on different tracks of the same vsti on my PC system without the sound experiencing sound breakups problems due to system overload.

Opus,
My computer is writing audio files to the OS drive instead of the "G" removable drive. Even when I select it to save song in the "G" drive the audio files get routed to the OS "C" drive. I have it a the shop being looked at but the guys there don't know a lot about Cubase. They said I should ask you waht to do. Any suggestions?

Who's using or has ever worked with a Radar II system and knows something about the latest release for it. Think its 2.12. Just wondering if it's worth the purchase.

Is there a good program (preferably freeware, if possible) for monitoring the CPU temperature? Right now the only way I know of is to go into my bios setup menus. I'm running Windows XP. I wouldn't be suprised if its built into Windows somewhere - I just haven't found it. ;)

Okay, I have a P42Ghz with 512Mgs of ram running a Whizpro BIOS Ver. 1.01 dated 04/02/02 and have installed Windows 2000 Professional. I tried to follow Opus' optimization guide, but to be honest, I never saw the initial screen prompt saying hit F6 to add any third party SCSI devices and drivers, so I couldn't follow his directions and hit F5 at that time to select "Standard PC".
