I'm doing an independent film project this spring as a freebie (cuz I'm interested in the project). The end product will be an MPEG video clip with stereo audio track. The images are a series of stills (300-400). No audio will be recorded until "post", then it'll use voice-overs, flown-in ambient sound and "foley" type fx.

What bitrate (16, 24, 32, 64) should I record wav files prior to burning on CD?

This may not be the most approriate forum for this question but as I have read the posts of Fletcher on RAP for a couple of years, I feel confident he will have the most concise direction.

I recently added a 2" 24 track to my studio setup that includes 32 tracks of ADAT XT as well. I currently have the ADAT I/Os and the board I/Os linked in a patchbay.

This thread is all about "tips and tricks". Anything else will be deleted. :roll:

I need plain, remedial instructions on how to sync a Korg Trinity sequencer to XT20's thru a BRC.

We need to break out individual tracks of the sequencer and transfer them to the ADATS.

Also, may need to have the Trinity play back in sync with the ADATS during mixdown.

Does Radar 24 really sound better than Radar II and if so how ? - bearing in mind a decent set of converters alone would normally cost as much as the entire Radar 24 package (or does the advertised package not include everything)?

I hate the black and whites. No, I am not racist. I hate playing the keyboard sometimes. With all this modern technology at our hands, it surprises me that most synths still are usually controlled buy a keyboard, with maybe and aftertouch wheel. I'd like to change that.

Here is my idea for the ideal patchbay, for me at least.
I'd like to have 1/4" TRS connectors on the front, normalled, switchable to un-normalled by solder, jumpers or switches. The back will have ELCO connectors, compatible with ADATs. From there I can also put 1/4" connectors on the ends of the ELCOs to interface to my equipment, ADA's, whatever.

Mixerman, I find that your statement " the sound gets smaller the more sounds you put into it" rings a chord in my brain.
The really interesting thing is, lemme see if I can put this into words :)

Hello all,

I must say that this forum is certainly easier to navigate than the Paris users forum (I can't seem to access the newsgroup or search functions!) and I certainly appreciate much of the information that has been given thus far.
