Happy Holydays
No sound. I paid for a twenty dollar optical cable hoping these connections would get me a digital audio* connect. The Tascam fw-1804 won't even read a signal coming in.
Am l doing something wrong?

I have been getting familiar with the Cubase software w/ LE . In the past Have always recorded in stereo tracks per instrument i.e Keybd left+right, guitar L+R. In order to keep the nice spatial spread when using f/x.

Hi People.

my situation :

I recently bought Native Instruments' Guitar Rig.
Though I am not running it via their Rig Kontroller

Instead I bought myself the Light Snake™ ¼ Guitar input > USB 2.0 cable. It's a nice cable.

Now when GR loads and I go to the AUDIO AND MIDI SETTINGS I have 2 options and they are as follows:

Hi, I'm a newbie to the forum! I'm hoping someone can help me with a problem I'm having -

Trying to go direct from a MOTU Ultralite to my new Genelec 8040As.
The Genelecs are crazy sensitive. I have to pull the MOTU
master back 30 dB to be comfortable, and that's with the
Genelec trims all the way down. I'm sure that if I output
full signal I'd be picking driver pieces out of the back wall.

So here is what I think my choices are. I am some what limited by the operating system I run and mostly by my budget. I just need more inputs to my computer. I was wondering if anyone would give their opinion on this. Which one of these do you think is better?

Hi guys

Probably going to be getting real recording equipment (more than a mono-input on a $20 soundcard) at some point.

Hey, Im Jon and brand new here. I have been working on a song for a few months and just finished. Although I have recorded several pieces, I have never "mastered" anything before and I need input. As I dont have any friends who know anything, I am hoping to get some help here from some experts.

I'm actually helping a friend open a coffeeshop and we're now focusing on the sound system.

My basic idea is to get a receiver with a couple inputs (iPod,CD player) going to a mixer which has multiple outputs to go to different "zones" (ie, front dining, rear dining, courtyard, entrance, restrooms, etc.).

I have a question about using the high-z inputs on my board. I currently use a Mackie Onyx 1620 which has 8 mic preamps and then 4, 1/4" stereo channels.
