Hello all,
I need help with what equipment to get to do a podcast.

3 guys, in home studio.

We will interview guests via Skype, sometimes in studio

I want to be able to play sound bytes, music intros, sound effects during the show

I am new to this and have a quick question...we just got a Behringer PMP2000 power mixer and two Behringer b212XL speakers. The back of the PMP2000 has three "Speakon" outputs: Left (Main); Bridge; and Right (Monitor).

Hi guys, So I'm looking into buying a new preamp to go with my RODE K2. I have a Summit 2BA-221 which is ok but not the sound I'm looking for. Anyways my friend swears buy the 6176 even over the Avalon 737. But wanted to know what any of you think about the 6176 or the la-610 and how they are comparable. Does the la-610 have an EQ?

Hi,

I am a photographer, and I hate it when people ask say ''teach me a couple of important factors about taking photos, because I'm about to go and photograph a wedding for my friend''. It always makes me raise my hands to the sky.
So on that note, I am about to do that here, so i apologise in advance.

I am recording a podcast, and would like to hear everything that is being said through headphones in real time. Here's my setup.

MXL 990 condenser mics into the mic jacks of a Mackie VLZ series mixer. An instrument cable from the out port of the back of the mixer, into the instrument input of a PreSonus firebox. Firewire out of the firebox into the USB port of a macbook.

Hi all,

I've just got myself a mac, some studio monitors and an Apogee Duet 2. I'm just getting started and so many, many things currently confuse the hell out of me (hopefully all will be clear with time though!).

After much testing and online research, I finally found out how to not only make a 5.1 audio file, but also which of the many formats to use. Using SONY Vegas Pro 9.5 to mix 6 separate tracks to a 5.1 AC3 file. then using Audiomuxer to create a videoTS folder.

Hey guys,

So i bought a Saffire Pro 24 and was having issues with an express card on my laptop. I think I turned the Pro 24 on and off incorrectly too many times or something and a day later, it won't turn on at all. I know for a fact it isn't the cable. Any ideas if what i did caused that issue, or how to fix it?

Ok, so I've been battling a seemingly simple problem for ages. All I want to do is play bass into ableton, then send the processed signal out to an amp. Right now I have it set up so I run the bass into Ableton through the DI slot on my Mbox, then from a track in there, send that signal out one of the Mbox's output's. The output is run into a Radial X-Amp, then into my amp.

:redface: Ok, so this is probably a real stupid question, but in searching forums, and the net, I haven't found the definitive answer. Is an interface "the" sound-card, generating/translating audio to/from sources, plugins, midi instruments, etc., or do I still need to install an audio/sound-card (would definitely bypass on-board sound) in my PC?
