Hi all,
I've eagerly searched the archive but haven't really found the answers, so I'm hoping to kick off an old thread but with a particular
interest here.

right now my recording signal chain is:

RODE NT1000 -> Mackie XDR preamp -> M-audio Delta 44

Since I'm not totally satisfied, I plan this upgrade:

AT4033 -> Phoenix DRS-1 -> M-audio Delta 44

Obviously the delta 44 is the weak link in the chain, but I don't know whether it really is a problem :?

I have a chance to buy a Tascam M3500 mixer? Any one give me the Advice to compare with the Mackie 1604VLZ pro. Is M3500 better than 1604VLZ Pro for recordin? Cuz a lots my country people told me the 1604VLZ Pro only for the Monitorin, is that bad?
Thanks for help

hi.

Is it just me or is the Mini-Me built like cheap crap?

I've been using mine a lot over the past three months, and now the gain knobs are crackly, and the monitor knob is beginning to act up as well. The cheap silver paint on the body should have been an indicator, but I never expected this.

I really like the Mini-Me, but this is ridiculous.

does a CD burner make a difference in sound or is it the software. ive got nero burning rom that came with my burner. its a 52x24x52x speed. i dont know the brand off hand but it was about 90/100$ i think. i didnt know if there were any "pro" burners out there that makes a difference? thanks a bunch! :D

Is there anyone who can lead me to a sorce for high quality backing tracks for a solo guitar and singer act? My music type is Blues, oldtime rock and roll, jazz, rock and some country. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you GDR

i would really appreciate your help.
cards other than creative labs, which i've already used.

Fock! i got my equipment since like 2 months and at the beginning it was all fine, had a real smooth sound and all, but a few days ago i couldnt get as smooth quality as i got before .. and now it seems to get worse and worse.

Equipment:

Mic: At3035
Preamp: Roland MMP-2
Soundcard: Emu1212m

Hi folks,

now, I have my equipment (AT3035, EMU1212, Roland MMP-2) since about 2 months and I think I still ain't getting the best quality possible. My vocals sound kinda muddy and they sorta distort abit. I have absolutely no idea why, because I should be able to get some nice ass quality with that setup, shouldnt I? Can anyone help me out?
