Hi folks,
any suggestions on nice sounding compact mixers (4-8 mic inputs)? Main uses will be as a sub mixer or for on location recording. I want it simple and sturdy. No fancy routing needed. I've been surfing the net a bit, finding very few alternatives. My budget for this project is in between the Spirit M series and TL Audio 's Tubetracker, that is roughly $1000-$3000.

How many ever use a sampled kick or snar (pop and alike) instead of the real thing?

I've had a few battles over this saying they can tell the difference every time. I sent a track out to someone (we all respect) and they couldn't tell the difference, and he didn't believe me.

I'm about to put together a system for a friend and I was just wondering which chipsets and/or motherboards everyone thinks are best for digital audio work. I'm almost positive I want to use an Athelon processor.

Okay,

So I picked up a Apple G3 Laptop that has 1 firewire port. two usb ports and a line in and line out.

Already had a version of Emagic Logic on the machine. I have a peavey mic and a compressor.

How do I record to the laptop?

For Midi I bought something that handles that pretty well. Just need to know how to get audio in and out and at a good level!

Does anybody have some info about this table, Like: retail price, head purpose, pics, data sheets, or just anything? I'm intending to buy one.

I currently use an RNC and Crane Song Hedd for tracking my keyboards and Vocals into my DAW. I like the tube and tape emulations on the HEDD for both tracking and mixing. I was wondering if the compressors on the FATSO were pretty useable for tracking and the 2-bus. I'm not too sure is getting a FATSO would be redundant since I have way to warm and fatten things up with the Hedd.

Have anyone heard those units? The one from Swissonic has 115db dynamic range and the one from PreSonus is 110db. The Swissonic ones goes for 24/48 and the PreSonus goes 24/96, both around $700... what do you guys think?

The best way to make the Ac. guitar to sound brighter. To play 2 times and then L/R? Or to record it stereo? any Tricks/Opinions?

Any recommendations?

I own Orch 1 and 2 and the hip hop card all of which are pretty cool at times.

Any one compared the SRX orch cards?

Cheers

Renie

Has anyone had any really good or bad experiences recently with either XP or 98SE as I'm weighing up the pros and cons of buying the new OS.
