I am doing a grad student portfolio on six songs that I self produced, These are the main questions about my own recording process that I will be writing about, any insights?

Has any used Sonar X1 real world for production/mixing a project. I've recently upgraded to an PC with i7 cpu and Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit. Am very interested in the additional power of 64bit in relation to plugins/Vsti's count.

I'm also looking at Pro Tools 9, just really curious how does Sonar stack up 4 REAL!

Hi, here is a video of me playing a Tommy Emmanuel Song with additional harmonica.
I recorded both instruments together (before video-shooting).

Hi, DIY fellows!

I have finally fulfilled (at least, partially) one of my quests - to make a recording based as much as possible on DIY ribbon microphones. Factually, everything in this mix except drums and line-in instrument (bass & keys) is recorded using only a pair of such ribbons.

Hi I was wondering if anyone knows or took any classes at college that have had to do with a recording studio (DAW's / MPC / Keyboard / mixer etc.) and what they are called. Or any schools online that teach you. Also what degree that would be ..Audio Production..? Recording Arts?

Ive just recently been offered a production contract and I would like to move forward with it. They've handed me a pretty general contract and want me to add or change what i want on it. Ive been looking up a lot on whats standard as far as dividing money goes but I'm still not sure how to deal with my particular situation. The deal is with 2 other performers and myself.

I've recorded my wife's vocals over a karaoke backing track. I am a beginner when it comes to music editing, and I'd like to know what are the steps and best practices when it comes to editing. I'm using Mixcraft 5 as my DAW, and I just installed the trial version of Auto Tune which works with Mixcraft. I have two tracks: one is the backing track, and the other one is the vocal track.

Hi, new guy getting into the gear game here.

I do animations and other type of projects and my current setup (basically a computer and mic) isn't cutting it.

I've done a little research and looked around some forums and what I'm looking to get is:
