Hi Guys,

Ok, not only am I a newbie, I'm a dumbass. I posted this in the microphone forum when I intended to post it here. I'll try again.

I'm 41 and I'm a newbie. (Crowd) HELLO NEWBIE!

I'm 41 and I'm a newbie. (Crowd) HELLO NEWBIE!

Yea I'm a digital recording newbie anyway. The last time I recorded anything(1977) we hung two mikes by some wires from the roof into a small mixer and then into a 1 track stereo reel-2-reel. Did it sound good? No. Did it work? yes.

I just picked up a P4 1.7 Ghz PC with fairly good hardware but I have just a Soundblaster PCI 128 as a sound card. I realize in the future that I'll need to purchase something(sound card)more powerful to really do some damage but I just wanted to get things on the road for the time being.

Hi there, new here, just want to see if some of you fine folks would give me some critique and /or tips
of the sonic qualities of some of my recent recordings using the DM-24 into a MOTU 2408 to cakewalks Sonar XL
new to all this DAW stuff playing for years but this is my first attempt at recording and mixing my own stuff.
thanks a bunch

I've decided that I want to clean up all my old, out-of-print LPs and burn 'em to CD. While this would seem to be a very simple project, the fact is that I know absolutely nothing about DAW.

I have a quick question, I'm using PT Free and when i go into record, I arm the track and press record on the transport window, when i try to press space bar or play to start recording, nothinbg happens, yet when I select a region in the edit window and press record, it will record. What am I doing wrong for it not to record without me highlighting a region?

Thanks

Ryan

i was wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction.
i'm planning on doing some software synthesis along with effects and sampling. so far i've found that Cubase will be my mixing console.
i'm looking for good quality synthesis, i've found: crusher-x live (a granuler effects program) very cool
maybe some native instruments programs

This is your basic "Which way do I turn?" request. Do you know of a more appropriate site/source for me to begin with, given that...

Hello one and all...I simply need some feedback on my impending upgrade(?)...For years an analog tape head, i now find myself standing on the precipice of digital recording...I've read many posts on this and that and the other and need to make up my mind about the "best" way to approach my needs...Currently I'm looking at a stand alone custom built computer(amd drive very very fast and large) a
