I am currently operating on Windows XP Home; AMD Athlon XP 2200 1.8G Processor 512M Ram and currently have a crappy Aureal Vortex 1500.

I am recording with Cakewalk Home Studio 2004 XL. Mainly recording pop and dance music.

I want to upgrade to a midrange pro audio sound card and most likely the processor too.

Any suggestions? Thanks!

Hi guys, I'm a newbie to the forums and also to sound recording/engineering. Basically, I'm looking to start building up some equipment now to eventually after university start a studio (4 and a half years approx). The two options to study in uni atm are law or digital recording (or something with a similar title, it's basically just recording with pro tools etc).

Ok. This is the equipment that I am probably going to be getting. I want to be capable of recording 8 tracks at a time.

MIXER - Soundcraft FX8 (Phantom power, 8 direct outs)

SOUND CARD - Terratec Phase 88 OR Audiotrak MAYA 1010

PROGRAM - Adobe Audition 1.5 (Cool Edit Pro 2.0)

Hey,

I'm looking to get a home studio going, here is want I'm looking to get, let me know what you think and if there is anything I should do different. Its for mainly rock bands and acoustic stuff, I want at least 8 pres for Micing drums.

I was looking at going with the Behringer ADA8000 but heard the Yamaha mixer would be a better choice. Anything else I should look into?

My group is planing on making a home studio
so far we have
1-300 dollar mic(pop filter,mic stand)
2-Monitors
3-mixing board

We are gonna get a booth and soundproof the room
My question is,what computer would anyone recommend that would be best suited for recording.Our max budget is 4k please anyone give sugestions they will be appreciated

Recently I have decided to make an attempt at coming up with enough equipment to run a small home studio. As of now I am on a fairly tight budget. I currently have several mics and all the computer/I/O hardware that I need. As for mics I have several sm57s, a d112, a pair of AKGC1000s and a Blue Dragonfly. I need suggestions on what I should do for preamps .

Hi,

Hello. Im trying to set up my personal home studio. Mostly for solo recording. Im looking for suggestions on how to set it up to its best potential. I have the following gear.

- Digidesign M-Box
- MXL 2001 Condensor Mic
- Sennheiser Mixing Headphones
- Behringer UB1202 Mixer
- PreSonus Mic Pre

okay, not really one problem. I'm just completely lost. The gist, however, is this:

I want to record my SR16 in cakewalk. I want the tempo to be the same in the software and in the SR16. I don't seem to be able to get cakewalk to tell the sr16 the exact tempo (don't know the technical term). If I just set the two to the same BPM setting, the tempos are slightly off.
