I'm just wondering if anyone else has come across this or can explain to me why I am noticing this. I am mixing a pop country song. I have compressor plugs all over the place like on individual drums, drum buses, vocals, bass, etc. I also have compression at the main stereo bus and then a limiter also.

hi every1 iam searching the web to find out some information that what sort of high end pc specs are required for a good professional studio. that is suitable for windows operating systems. and also want suggestion for a high end studio mixer 16 to 32 channels.

I was just looking at picking up some new 1/4" cables to connect stuff in my home studio. Basically, need them to connect preamps to compressors, compressors to the soundcard inputs, nothing fancy. Probably looking at buying about 10 or so for now, probably about 3' to 6' in length. My question is this...

Ok,

So this is more of a poll than a question I assume. But lately, my RME converters have been acting funny (I think the clock may be going- or bad optical cabling...not sure yet) so I've just been using my DIGI002r.

I'm looking into some new gear in my quest to get that full, bright, balanced, "expensive studio" sound. Mainly I record instrumental stuff: keyboards, sampled drums from my MPC-4000, direct bass, and miked guitar. I never record more than 2 tracks at a time. There's so many choices as far as preamps, channel strips, EQ and compressors, it's really hard to choose what to buy.

I want to upgrade the cables linking my hardware in my studio. Mainly, I need MtoF XLR cables connecting my preamps to my Firepod. I want to keep my sound clean and pure. What cables do you suggest? Any links?

hi guys, i've been reading a lot about companies that do expensive remakes of the old classic mics (U47, C12, ELAM 251 etc), but unfortunately the majority of the info i can find comes from the companies own web sites or web sites that sell the brands. obviously not the least biased information. i've been checking out designs by wagner, korby and soundelux.

hey,

So for the past 6 years I've been working with some Alesis monitors. They're beasts! But they totally color my sound. So I'm looking for something that represents my the acutal sound well, without breaking the bank.

What do you think about the Mackie HR824 power monitors?
