Hi! Recently I purchased an Alesis Classical Piano Q card for my QS 7.1. I bought this thing solely on a demo I heard on the musician's fiend (sic) website. Even through my crappy computer speakers this thing sounded really good. It seemed to sound WAY better than the stock QS pianos (which to me sound like doo doo)Well...not exactly.

Hello. This may have been discussed before, and if it has been, feel free to direct me to that thread. Here's my question

I am looking into getting a Pro Tools setup for mac. It is mainly for consumer use in my house. Is digi002 the way to go now, or is it wiser to maybe get 001 and get the harware separately. (I need at least 4 mic preamp's)

We're a couple of UK based songwirters returned to the music business after a long layoff. We've been writing some songs in a project studio and want to come to Nashville for a couple of weeks next year to try and sell them . .maybe do a few small gigs.

After installing the Kxdrivers over my original SBlive setup, my latency went as low as 2.3ms, it was brilliant, BUT no signal was going through mic-in or line-in. I am totally out of ideas and would greatly appreciate any of yours! has anyone had the same problem? or is this a really annoying freak problem i have to work out for myself? :)

Ok..so Intel has the new Springsdale/Prescott combo coming out sometime next year...
What's next you might ask?

Dear Forum:
I have just recently arrived here. I can see that there are quite a few experienced people here representing a wide range of equipment usage - especially in the DAW world.
Please offer me you knowledge concerning host base verses non host systems.
I also ask that you would comment on the Scope Fusion Plateform and SAWstudio.

OK guys and gals...what is the standard "newbie question" that we have all seen posted about 3 million times on every forum from here to Timbuktu?

"I am getting pops and crackles in my song...waaaaaa!"

There are tons of reasons for this...buffer values...defragging the HD...CPU usage overload (too many channels and/or plugs), etc...

Well, here it is...soon to be 64bit processors from AMD...soon to be new processors(still 32bit from Intel)...

I am about to embark into my journey into the music business. (Local for now.) I have been fortunate to have been in another profession for 25 years and am very comfortable financially so I really do not need this work to make a living.

So I need a little support/advice from the community here. I'm an audio engineer working in and A/V production facility that is well established, but isn't always too forward looking in gear upgrades/updates. However, we have one of the highest hourly rates in our market, higher even than some fully equipped music tracking/mixing studios.
