I am somewhat new to the recording game. I puchased what I thought was a great mixer for the money (I am poor by most standards). All of my other studio devices operate at +4 singnal level,effects,mics recorders, accept the mixer -10? I am unable to get a hot signal into my recorders with distortion.

I'm lookin' for a nice 4 channel pre. I want something good. I'm trying to get 8 channels and I've already decided on 4 channels of GML. Oh, my MAX budget is 4k?

I have a mac g4 digi001 and DP3 I use micro xpress
as an interface. Dp3 does not see the 001 hardware
I've talked to everyone and tried much I'm sure it is something small I'm doing. someone please give me some insight. also will I have these problems when ever I get Nuendo?

Hi.
OK, I am getting a Lucid Genx-6, to use as a word clock source for two PC's running hammerfalls, a Yamaha AW4416, and external converters.

My question is, should all the cables from the Genx-6 be the same length (in which case they would all have to be 3 metres), or can I have different lengths varying from 50cm or 1 metre, up to three metres?

thanks

..anyone know the difference between API 550 EQ and the 550A ?I know the 550B has 4 bands, whereas the first 2 have 3, but what else ?

I've thought about purchasing two HDs, and having them mirror each other. Has anyone tried this; I'm worried about it hogging cpu time while recording, etc. It seems to me that mirroring my audio drive would be an easy back up solution since I record something new very frequently, and the price of HDs falling. If one drive fails I have another one ready to go with minimal down time.

I saw a post in which you mention ordering RAM in a PC, largest first. Can you please explain the reason for this ?
Thanks

I just did a session tonight where i had to fill in for an engineer who cancelled...dumbass! lol

I'm a Digital Performer user and I have a compatibility question for you Pro Tools users. I have a client that wants to track drums and other loud instruments at my studio and take the finished tracks back to his place for mixing in Pro Tools LE. If I save all the files as AIFF and save the song as an OMF file can Pro Tools LE open it?
