PT's Effects Routing Dilemma

Hi,

I am doing some mixing at a friend's studio & he has run into a problem which I told him I would run by you guys, since I have been helped here in the past.

First of all, I am tracking on PT's HD with version 6.9.2, he has the Digi 002 rack version 7.0 with a Soundcraft GB 8 analog board. I take my sessions to him via hard drive.

Game Development and Sound Effects

Hi,

I'm an indie game writer/developer working on a new iPhone game. Rather than pay for stock sound effects, i'd like to have a go at recording some myself (most likely creating the sounds in my home using various props)

Does anyone have any suggestions for a good equipment setup for recording sound effects?

What limits the amount of simultaneous PC effects?

Hi - I am trying to find an interface that will allow me to record 2-4 channels with a few effects, without too much latency. I had an Audigy 2 which was failing - if I threw a few Guitar Rig effects on and there was not much room before I had to bump the latency up to avoid underruns.

Question on a vocal effect.

Forums

I was just wondering if you guys could help me with this. I really like the effect used in the cover song "Metal" by Nine Inch Nails. I'm thinking it's a reverse delay effect on his audible breathing/cymbals, possibly? It starts building at 2:05 and builds to climax at 2:10 right before he sings the next line. It also happens at 2:23-2:30 over his voice. Let me know what you guys think it is.
