Weird problem. I just installed Cubase LE on my new computer, and I have changed my VST folder in plugin information.

I am in the market for a Digital Audio Workstation with 8 or more preamps (inputs), but one which I don't need to buy any Pro Tools software to use. I just want to record raw digital tracks, transfer them to my laptop via firewire or usb, and work with the tracks using Cool Edit Pro on the laptop. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Hello, this is my first post here. I decided to join to learn more about recording. I am an enthusiastic beginner, but limited in resources and experience, so I hope others will tolerate my questions which are apt to be basic. I just read Mastering Audio by Katz, and am almost finished Behind the Glass. Both were good reads, and I think I learned something from the simpler parts.

OKAY!

Here's a quote from the Kapt:

"You'll rarely get good results plugging a guitar straight into an interface. Depending on how it's set, you could be loading down the guitar signal. A direct box, a preamp, or a POD (or similar) may help get a better signal."

what would happen in this case, if I where to mike a drum set and set the overheads up as 2 omnidirectional mics in an XY coincident position?

i just picked up a Pro Co DB-1 Direct Box at a discount price at a local store, but it did not come with the directions (hence the price drop). but i only paid $30 for it.

anyway, could someone fill me in on the features/options so that i can use this correctly? thanks in advance

this is something I'm looking to develop a free download (pdf) with listed freelancers and small businesses offering service like online mastering, publishing, myspace design, CD and logo design, online music stores etc. to independent artists and musicians

Hello,

My previous post was about which audio interface I should buy and how soundcards works.
Luckly I could put my hands on an Aardvark Direct Pro 2496.
Just to be sure that you, reading this post, get the exact card I am talking about here is its link:
