I have a SmAudiopro MC03 tubemic, but I only get mono signal.
Is it because the mic only records mono or do I have to make adjustments in the program?

Please forgive my ignorance, but can someone tell me the difference between recording something in stereo as opposed to recording mono and then doubling it and using two channels? I mean, if you are using the same mikes, do you place them differently to capture a different part of the sound? Whats the deal?

Hey everyone!

I have some issues with a mix that has been bothering my noodle for the last two days. After this, I will be more in line to use the audio analyzers a little more often though :lol:

hello everyone,

when connecting the output of a MONO device (guitar/di box etc) ie a 1/4" mono jack plug to the 1/8" stereo 'line in' of a sound card is the mono signal wired so as to 'split' it between the 2 stereo channels or is it just fed into 1 channel leaving the other 'open'?

I am looking to upgrade to an Avalon 737sp.
However I see it only has a mono out. And no SPDIF outs.
How will I get it to connect to my Harmonizer? The Harmonizer (Eventide) and the Lexicon FX units both need left and right inputs to have a incoming signal.

Hi there, simple question but I’m a simple person.

This is my setup:

PC with Audiophile 2496 so 2ins, 2outs and SPDIF
Waldorf Pulse synth (for bass)
Boss DR202 drum machine

...and I am trying to buy a second synth for pads / leads etc. The synth I want has SPDIF I/O. So I was thinking about connecting it up like this:

what are the advantages / disadvantages of using a stereo preamp versus using two mono preamps?

And what's "stereo-linking"?

Cheers

I would just like some feedback on the differences between stereo and mono while recording. I have adobe audition and i was wondering if recording in mono is any different then stereo? I'm only able to record in mono but when i do a mixdown it's put into stereo.

I have come to a point where I now need to start mixing my songs. My setup is mostly software-based and the problem I have, or don't have is this:

Hey all, quick question:

When putting samples into Pro Tools and mixing them within the drums, vocals, bass, etc.., is it better to keep them Mono or Stereo?

Does it all depend on how busy the sample is?

Thanks!
