This is a branch from my first post ("Yet Another Noob - interface questions")

Based on what I've read here, I've concluded that an audio interface is my next investment.

I don't mind starting with fewer inputs if I can expand later on by either adding another similar unit or additional preamps.

So I'm just a little curious if anyone knows of a device, like a DI or something that acts as a safe guard against Phantom Power? For use with Ribbons basically. I ask because its like a recurring nightmare of mine to just slip on the phantom power button, and then "boom".

I've been mixong off $150 headphones for a while now because of how tight money's been. I really really need a set of monitors that are actually gonna be beneficial to my mixing, not just a $100 pair of m-audio's or something.

Musician's friend has a sale right now on the Rokit line of KRK monitors.

The RP-5 is 99.99 (was 149.99) each..so a pair would cost me $200. .

Hey everyone, I want to turn my room into a mini studio since making and recording music is pretty much my passion. Right now here is what I have...

Hardware:
PreSonus Firepod
Shure Sm58
Shure Sm57
At2020

Software:
Fruity Loops
Adobe Audition 1.5

I'm looking for internship oppurtunities in the Dalas area. My goals are lofty. I want to be able to produce the biggest names in my own world class studio. To get there, I'm trying to develop my skill set in as broad a way as possible; meaning that I'm trying to learn as much about the business and industry aspects as the technical/engineering aspects.

Digital vs analog recording.

Anyone having experience of A/B testing identical material
played back from a 24 track analog side by side an 24 track
digital machine?

I am transferring files using the Alesis fireport to a pc. I am previewing the tracks right in Alesis' fst program and am experiencing digital distortion (clicks while music is playing) on every track. Is this a sound card or sampling problem? What could it be? I remember these exact tracks transferring fine when I used the ethernet connection.

thanks for the help in advance

Have anyone tried the TOFT ATB series consoles?

any word on that?

Whichsetup (mic/transmitter/receiver) would you recommend for a Violin?

The idea is to spend about U$S 300-600

Would you think something really good would be on that price range?

I found Audio-technica ATM350cW U$S 149.97 with Audio-technica ATW-211 U$S 299.974.
What do you think about this setup?

Thank you
