Active Monitors Always... Active!

Hi guys,

I have a weird question for this forum, I guess, but anyways. I got a pair of Behringer truth b2030a (or some kind of that), those are active studio monitors. I just wonder whether it's ok to keep them always on or should I better turn them off, when I don't need 'em? May the constant state of being on damage them?

Thanks, people, and all the best to ya!

USB Preamp that works with Windows 7?

Does anyone know of a usb preamp that's phantom powered and most importantly works with windows 7? My old mobile pre usb has drivers for windows 7 but they're TERRIBLE. It keeps making most of my audio jacks not work. I only use it for podcasting.

I'd like to register, but I don't know the name of the cable that starts with m that the pros use...

Busking Gear

Hi, I'm planning to go busking with vocals, electric guitar and an electric bass player. I've been researching battery powered equipment but am fairly new to playing with the right equipment. I've seen a 3 channel input and XLR input battery powered monitor/mixer made by a company called Artec (PMD-8); would it be posible to use this as a way of amplifying ourselves on the street?

New Home Recorder

Alright so as most once were, I am new to recording and am trying to figure out some very beginnerish things.

First off I know the sound that I will be getting out of a home studio is no where near as good as it would sound out of a professional one, more or less because of my experience, room settings and such.

PreSonus FP10 sound problem

Hello there, I'm new to this forum so don't be harsh if I don't understand some things.
I have problem with my PreSonus FP10 and using it in Cubase/Nuendo 3...the problem is, whenever I arrange my midi drums in addictive drums, or play/record guitar through it, after about 5-15 minutes it just goes to noiseless and I can't hear anything, the signal is gone, and sound is gone!
