hello everyone. i'm building a daw from scratch. i'm going to have 2 hard drives (1 for os and apps, 1 for audio) and 1 CD burner. i will have the onboard ata 100 controller and a promise ata 133 controller. my hard drives will be on the promise ata 133 controller. my question is where should i put the burner?

I need advice on professional recording software out there, keeping in mind I'm on a budget. I have experience recording using cool edit 2000 and Cakewalk sonar, but I am not satisfied with those.

I need software to do recording and mixing. Then software for mastering. If it all comes in one package (I'm doubtful it does), let me know.

Give me your thoughts!

I've been thinking about this for a long time and thought I'd get some opinions from you guys.

The Plan:

Portable Part: Assuming I can take lines from the bands mixer.

Alesis HD24
Mackie 1604 Mixer (or bigger)
PatchBay (easy connections)
4 603s for choirs without mixers
couple of 57s, 58s just in case.
couple/three RNCs

Hey mofros, I got a question for you believe it or not...

here's my situation - I've got a new DAW running Windows 2000 Professional on the OS drive (haven't added an audio drive yet). I want to install my old SCSI audio drive from my previous system, but that old system was running Windows 98 SE.

Hello all -

I've just stumbled upon this site today, and I must say I'm impressed. The knowledge that you guys share is a great tool for learning.. I have a few questions for the community, let me know what you all think:

I just got this warning: someone will send you a very nice screensaver of the Budweiser frogs.

DO NOT DOWNLOAD IT. Your computer will crash and you will loose everything.

There is nothing you can do to stop it!

There is no remedy known for this virus.

I'm passing this info because it's very urgent.

Send it to anybody you know.

* Here's what I need to do:

I have a small digital audio workstation (a Zoom MRS 1044) that I use for recording my acoustic pop songs for demos. I presently use stage mikes (Shure 57/58) and a cheap Sony electret condenser. I actually get a decent sound, but I'm thinking I could improve by getting an inexpensive condenser mike (under $150--after all, the rest of my system's pretty modest).

Hello,
I recently upgraded from 98SE to XP Pro. My Software is the same as w/98SE( with exception of SX); Reaktor, Reason, Recycle, VST 5.1, CE 2000. Hardware is same w/ exception of UAD-1( Installed post-XP); Delta 66, MMan 2x2, all with latest downloaded drivers.
