Hi, Need help with auto tune! Everytime I try to use it it makes the vocal tracks sound weird, and dont tune them right. I'd like to know what settings do you use! is there like a universal scale just to tune up everything? I dont want it to sound like a techno recording you know what I mean. Just a little bit of tuning...also seems like auto-tune goes crazy on vibrato vocals...

In the new issue of Tape Op, Bob Katz of Digital Domain states that "99 times out of 100, the INTERNAL clock in a converter will produce lower jitter and thus better sound than if you clock that converter externally from the most stable wordclock generator in the world! The reason: A crystal oscillator is much stabler than a phase locked loop.

Howdy

Here's what I liked at the show

The Hartmann Neuron

Anyone out there in LaLa land heard the Hybrid Theory album by Linkin Park? The question I have is on the vocal technique he uses. I hear the lead vox straight up but the backup L/R. If anyone can give me an idea of how he mixes the vocals, lead and backup it would be a sun shiny day in Seattle.

Okay... I'm having a hard time finding this out now. Does Cubase VST 24 have "true tape" or is that only on Cubase VST 32?

Did anybody works/worked with these Compressors?For which Instruments is the best way to use them that they really rock?

This is from waves...

"Q: Do Waves plugins need to be updated only to run at higher sample rates?

A: Higher sample rates is the problem, PT HD doubled the sample rate but not the DSP power so any plugin taking more then 50% on your current mix will not work under 96KHZ on the new HD."

So no c4 at 96k folks!

I find it amazing that there are far more studio owners than there are freelance recording engineers and producers. When I tell people that I am an audio engineer, the first question I am asked is "Where is your studio?". I think that this is the real problem in the studio business today. It is driven by the dream of owning a studio, not by the market for studio time.

Has anybody used a WaMi. I'm looking for a interface that has both analog and midi that doesn't cost a fortune.

HI.It`s time for me to buy a 6/5 near field monitor and I am headed to the under 500 bucks price tag ones.I`ve been checking all those company sites and so far I narrowed my decisions to these (active)models:
