Hey ppl,
This topic may have been posted many times on the forums but Im still confused about choosing a good laptop for myself for Audio production since i get mixed opinions... I would like to get more opinions now...
The main production softwares I use are CubaseSX, Reason 2.5 and Abelton Live 4.0. I usualy Rewire them for most of my productions.

Does anyone know anything about IPR...(Institute of Production and Recording) in Minnesota? The production program sounds a lot more up my alley becuase it's more 'producer driven' than engineer driven. But it's a relatively new program and I don't wanna be a frozen guinea pig in vein.

Hello all –

I’m a newbie here, so go easy! I’ve used the search function, but haven’t found opinions that are directly on target … so I’m hoping you will tolerate what is likely a frequently asked question.

Let's see what kind of stuff we get for this one. Let's make it "worst production on well-known albums"(no unheard of bands). I would like to know some of those albums where everything is right except the production. Good performance, good songs, good groups, bad recordings.

Let's have it .

2 parts:

1. What are some of your favorite albums, as far as sound and engineering quality.

2. Are there any good documentaries or programs I could get that show bands in the studio actually working, Just to see real footage of albums actually being made? I love to watch stuff like that.

Gday guys and gals :)
Just wanted to say this is one of the most useful resources on the net I have found...Thankyou so much...

i mainy produce r&b and hip hop .. i track most of my stuff now with a u87ai and or cad m9 through a valley audio 401 or Aphex 207. sounds good but it need great.
i'm looking at getting the Focusrite isa430MkII or the A-designs mp1 with a nice comp(distressor)

Anybody have any idea where to find rack ears/rack mount kit for an out of production Sony DAT machine? I've asked all over and no one seems to have any idea. The closest thing I've gotten to an answer is to try dealing with Sony directly. Their website has absolutely no info on anything related, although I haven't tried calling.

Can you list some of GREAT production/mixing albuns here ? (recent ones)

Like great vocals production, guitars, etc.

thanks
