So I learned that direct boxes match impedance, and that this alters the tone of an instrument. So I set out to test this for myself, and this is what I've come up with:

Is it possible to use outboard gear (like compressors, equalizers, etc.) with a DAW? If so, exactly how does one do this?

Hi there!
I`m changing my home studio gear right now and I'm looking for the best option for a usb interface up to $250. I`m planning on getting a PreSonus Tubepre Single-Channel Vacuum Tube Mic Pre and i was told the Apogee one is good option running on a Mac book pro.

Hello all. Does anyone happen to have a copy of the manual for this unit with 2.0 firmware? I've searched high and low and can only seem to find the 3.1.
I'm really most interested in the Program Matrix and Parameter Matrix, mostly because my "4" and "9" buttons aren't working (bummer)...so I'd like to see what I"m missing by not being able to use them.

I want to record the speech in acoustically live environment:

Hello again,

Greets all,

I usually record acoustic music, but will be recording a metal band this weekend. The band wants to use this recording as a sound reference. Pantera - Revolution Is My Name

I was unsure of where to post this question, because it could have fallen in a few different categories. In any event, I have a new Saffire USB 6 audio interface. It sounds very good, but it is significantly quieter than other equipment. I have it hooked up to my Carver preamp, and from there into my Bryston 2B. The computer is the source for the Saffire.
