So I am looking to upgrade. I currently use a Yamaha Audio gram 6 which basically only allows me to hook up my guitar (gibson j45) and mic (Shure sm57). I record using abelton live 8. I am looking to record me and my friends playing. So a Guitar, Bass, Mic and my electronic drum set would be nice as well.

this is my first post so be gentle. ive been using project 5 version 2 for a bout 6 years now and have just gotten into sidechaining. ive pretty much figured it out except the bass track always muddies up the entire mix.

Hello,
I have vintage Alesis Monitor One near-fields, which are unshielded. One of them has to sit right next to my vintage Zenith System 3 monitor--the layout cannot be altered. The monitor affects parts of the screen, depending on its angle, leading to my questions:
1) Will the monitor proximity cause damage to the screen, even if the TV is off?

Hi everyone,

First post here. I'm slowly getting back into the home recording arena after a hiatus.

I'm very intrigued by Pro Tools 9 and its ability to handle other audio interfaces. I used to record on a Digi001 but that's been on the shelf now for a few years. That being said, I'm also looking at other DAW's (reaper, logic, etc.).

Hi,

Ive been recording for about 9 years and use a desktop. My pc is a workhorse but I need to have mobility

Just got a quad core laptop with a ton of ram, more than capable of handling recording but they dont make laptops these days with firewire, mainly cuz its not a highly used consumer input...

I use a Focusrite saffire pro 24 channel recorder

I've discussed this more than once but wasn't sure what mics I'd settle on and know how the room would sound with people in it until yesterday.

Recording 14 choirs over 2 days. Largest choir will be 75 people.

me and my friends are in a small band and have started to do some home recording. The gear we have is 16 input mixer, 4 dynamics, 1 condenser, 2 shotgun (used on drums), 5 drum mics, 2 guit, 1 bass. We are not short for cash but also need new cables. We would like for the drum set to make a 20-25 foot snake. This would free up the cables we need. This is my main question.

Ok, so I'm a newbie here who is very very wet behind the ears and could use some guidance. I currently own a small A/V design firm and do very well. I typically design commercial 70v audio systems and do a lot of video designs for everything from basic tv setups for bars and restaurants to high-endtele-conferencing systems for corporations.

Heyy guys I'm new here, but I'm in need of some help, and the forums are a great place to start! i have an old multitrack recorder which is awesome for laying stuff down just to remember them, but i need the real deal now, i have mics and stuff, but what do i need to basically have myself a studio set up, as in pro tools mixer etc. what are somethings i need to look for, and where do i start?
