Hey, my name is Sparks. Me and my mate have a small part time audio/recording buisness. The thing is that out of the two of us I am the audio specialist and I am also a musician. Can I do both? Do I need to do one or the other? I want advice and I thought who needs agony aunts/uncle when I could speak with some of you peeps.

Sparks :)

Just wondering if anybody has any personal opinions on the thing. I know some on here like the Golds if you upgrade the tubes. Its probably too early in its production to get a lot of good reviews on it, but just wondering.

I have an ISA 428 and am looking at getting the A/D card. Question is: will there still be zero latency monitoring when I go into a PreSonus firestudio via ADAT? Thanks.

Currently I run out of my 428 with XLR cables into the preamps.

Hi, Im gathering up stuff to cut an album. Im looking at the FireStudio Project.

The big thing is, I want to have atleast 8 mic inputs.

I've heard about a lot of "technical" problems with these, but I dont care about those, because I've studied all the fixes, and I'm also a computer tech by trade. I have a beefy "hackintosh" with 2.66 dual core and 4 gigs of hyperX Ram.

Hi all,

This is a follow-up from a http://www.recordin…"]previous post[/]="http://www.recordin…"]previous post[/] where I was asking questions about 500 series preamps.

Hello! I'm sorry if these seem like horrible questions:

1) I'm going to start recording music and I think I have some idea of a proper chain:

Source -> Instrument(s) -> Mixer -> Interface -> PC

Is this correct?

2) I'll ask after I get an answer to 1 :]

This summer I will be producing a demo for a friend of mine.
Well I need a few different hard rock kits. every thing from a metal kit to a fat 70's rock kit.
I am using logic to do the production. So I am looking to buy either a program with samples or just a sample library that I can map to the esx24.

I want to try to mess around with sound for cartoons and games. What I am really interested in creating. Sound Fx. So I understand that a lot of sounds can be recorded live, but what if you want some blaster sound etc... What Software do I need for that? What keyboard? I was thinking to begin with M-audio Oxygen or E-mu Xboard... Any suggestions? Thank you.

Hey guys. i have an Alesis DM5 and i no longer need it. i Could just sell it but i noticed it has an midi in and output. Anyway i could possibly assign these sounds to a Midi controller or something?

I'm jus trying to see if i could use it in any ither way before selling it,
