Okay, this is a really beginner question but here it is:

Hello all I am a guitar player, lead mostly and am looking to venture into the recording side of music production. I am willing to buy a few pieces of "good" equiptment and have to piece the rest together in time rather than get everyting needed right away and regret not having what I really wanted.I want to build a home studio that I can record my bands and offer recording to local bands.

ok so for some reason i cannot hear live or playback signal coming into the headphones BUT i when i push the talkback button on my O2R i can hear talkbalk just fine. any idea's of what may be causing this?
thanks

Hey guys -

Anybody know of a specific (Brand and Model) board which works well? I prefer the TI chipset, but have found that the RME Fireface is less picky than others, so any one that works solidly would be great!

Basically, I think I'll need a ExpressCard to FW400 or FW800 adapater such as the one located at this link:

Yo guys I'm looking to get some monitors to mix, I definetly want 8s, no bigger or smaller really. But I was wondering whats the best bang for my buck, I'm trying to stay under $500, maybe a litter higher, but thats my limit, any suggestions?

Thanks

Greetings. I will be attempting to record a drum set for the first time ever, Monday, and was wondering if anyone would be willing to offer up any advice on getting a decent sound with what I have available. I know the kit is made by Tama and sounds pretty good live. He also has an assortment of Zildjian cymbals. I'm looking for a starting point as far as mic placement goes.

With all this talk of bad this and bad that...I wonder, what frequencies are good?

By 'good' I'm thinking which are best for a sound to ensure good body, clarity and can cut thru the monitor to get to the performing musician?

So what's the big difference between these standards?

Im just starting to record an i want to use soft ware rather a digital recorder and i was wondering if you guys could help me out a little!

Folks,

I have a Pro Tools TDM MIX+ rig (Mix+ and 5 Vintage Farms) and I am selling it because I am a home recording guy that cannot afford to upgrade to HD. The MIX+ rig is really a dead end for me - I can't upgrade my computer, I can't use the latest O/S versions, I can't do 96K - I'm basically trapped and I want out...
