Thank you. :D

Quick question. I read the Win2000 optimization guide. From that I think the OS hardrive gets formatted NTFS(?) and the sound drive gets FAT32. The harddrives are Deskstar 120gxps. Tring to format the sound drive FAT32. I keep getting errors that say the volume is too big. Does Fat32 have some limitation? The drives are 40gig.

here's my dilemma. i have all the parts for my ANUS. i ordered everything for a complete build. but i also have a couple items from my previous pc that might be worth putting in my ANUS (ouch).

Well I am putting together a new box. Ingrediant list is in some other post around here. Anyway a question on IDE cables - Please excuse if my tech jargon is off.

Just stumbled upon a recording tip at :

Lately, I have been doing what I refer to a "post" mixing, which happens after the mixing and before the mastering.
Typically it involves re-balancing stems(inst to vox, or bkgd vox,GTRsolos...).

what are your guys' thoughts... preamp before compression, or compression before preamp? thanks

wsup guys

whenever i record midi (or I am playing midi) in Sonar xl 1.3.1 i get a beeping sound sometimes and then the audio drops. Anyone know how to get rid of this beeping noise?

For fx and MAYBE mixdown purposes I have gotten a otari mtr 12 1/4" 2 track.

Its been near 5 years since I last worked at a studio with analog machines and it seems tape has changed a bit.

I checked for 499 as I want to hit it plus 9, but no store seemed to want to carry Quantegy, who carries Ampex( thats how long I been away)

Ok,
I try to record and mix and I basically suck at it.
it must be some magic formula.

example - nivana nevermind or soundgarden -
how do they get that big punchey in your face snare and kick sound?

are they eqing the hell out of it?
i thought eq was a no no - you're suppose to get the suond up front to avoid phase problems.
