Hello, Folks at Recording Music forums.
I have been looking at digital recorders for past few days and don't know which machines suit my needs.

Hi,

I am a musician / composer, currently using an 828mkII for recording with a Mac (desktop). This has been a great introduction to the world of digital recording. I plan to keep this equipment, and use DP for mixing in the future as I feel it has been a good investment.

My Roland VS 840 EX digital recorder has erased my last 2 songs I've attempted to record. I get halfway through a song and all of a sudden when I go to perform a routine function on the recorder, the disk(zip) either no longer has the song data or the data has been jumbled into an incoherent mess.

I'm currently running DP on a Mac G4 with a MOTU 2408MKII. I tend to run out of CPU headroom a little earlier than I would care for on most of my mixes.

I was wondering if anyone here knows what the benefits would be by using something like the Alesis HD24XR in conjunction with the computer and mixing software, to take over the read/write duties in the recording/mixing process.

I was telling this guy I met who happens to own a indie label that I was going to purchase a HHB or masterlink CD recorder to produce my CD's and he said no matter what model I purchase it will not put the same kind of time codes on my CD's that a CD manufactuer equipment will. Is this true and does this really matter, if so why?

Not sure if this thread has come up, but I figured this was the place to look. I don't do much recording by myself other than demos, but I'm looking to upgrade to the 21st century (yes, I'm still using an old cassette 4track), and thinking a digital SIAB.

I was looking at the Korg D1200 and 1600, as well as the Yamaha AW16G (from reputation, these came to mind).

Hi Chef!

I'm about to mix drums at the moment and I wanna try something different as Gating .
The snare sound is better when I DON'T gate the Toms. I mean that the snare sounds more "fat". Sure I can hear the Cymbals through the Tom mics but. who cares.
What do you think?

Cheers Vagelis

Right now the money is a little tight and I am not able to afford a new digital multitracker but I want to add some eq to my fostex mr-8.

Hey all...here are some pictures of my NS10 Microphone. I went to a machine shop and had them add the bar that goes from one screw-hole over the magnet to the other one. This lets me mount it on a standard mic stand. Add this as a second mic to any other mic setup @ around -10db in level (at least, sometimes less) and you'll get an amazing modern sub low end added to your kick.
