I'm trying to record some bass tracks using Cubase 5 and a fast track usb plugin . Windows 7 64-bit. I can get Cubase to register the sound levels of the bass, however when I actually record, the sound doesn't show up in the top part. Basically, the recording remains a straight line instead of showing the sound being recorded like I've seen in youtube videos.

I am looking to open a small studio with my friend, and I was curious, Do you have to have an Mbox for pro tools? Or can you use a mixer instead. Do you have to run the mixer through the Mbox?

Hi everyone, first off I thank everyone for the great knowledge and feedback. My question is that I have an original matched pair of RODE NT1's I'm considering letting them go for a pair of Shure KSM32's.

Hello,

I'm In Need Of Assistance. I'm Trying To Receive Sound Recording Incentives With Louisiana Entertainment. They've Asked For:

"A Statement that the Project Meets the Definition of a State-Certified Production."

And

"A Statement that the applicant(s) has no liability to the State of Louisiana and has never claimed bankruptcy."

I'm probably going to get a Royer SF-12 in the near future. Do you Royer owners recommend the RSM-1 shock mount? A bit pricy, but if it's worth it...Any other recomendations?

I am currently considering a new digital interface for recording. I am looking at several different products such as PreSonus and Tascam. The PreSonus unit I am looking at is Firewire based and the Tascam is USB. The PreSonus is nice in that you can keep adding units to increase capabilities.

I have a question about M/S mic technique. I really like it, but why does the left channel get louder when I raise the volume of the "M" mic panned center against the "S" mic channels? The Left and right channel was created in my DAW by cloning a track from the S mic, then flipping the right channel out of phase and hard panning both channels hard L and R.

...sure is disheartening to spend 1/2 hour or more writing a new post about a question, in detail, only to post and have it never show up, even a few hours later...:frown:

sigh.

Hi (beginner here):

I'm recording a guitar amp. I'm using a RODE NT1 thru a Peavey VMP2 pre, right to the interface (Audiophile 2496). But as I turn up the volume I get the interface input overloaded, even with the pre -20db input pad enabled.

Do I need to get into a console after the pre in order to attenuate the signal?

Thanks in advance!

Anyone have a PDF service manual for my old Porta One? I use it for my "couchside idea" recorder, with my old Harmony (with Dean Markley PU) plugged into it. "Hmmm...that's an interesting chord progression...hit power switch, hit 'record'."
