I apologize in advance for my lack of technical knowledge, I will try my best :)

We have a old 12 Channel Yorkville mixer that runs 2 self powered Mackie Speakers in a Worship environment.

Right now, there is a delay switch wired in so that the mixer turns on first, then a half second later, the powered Mackie Speakers.

At what level of audio production is a soundcard needed anymore?

Modern motherboards have onboard audio and there are even some with SoundBlaster onboard and SPDIF. CPU and bus speeds are incredibly fast such that dedicated processors on a sound card aren't perhaps as necessary as they used to be. Audio devices can be connected via USB or Firewire directly to the motherboard.

Hello forum!

First let me say that I'm very excited that this forum exists. After trolling a little bit I can see that the moderators and many users here are exceptionally well-informed, and I can't wait to begin the dialogue with other musicians who are trying to record well to help each other get the exact sound we want.

Hey this is my first post everyone.
Im new to the recording world and I just got an M Audio ProFire 2626 for my studio.

Do I need an internet connection on the computer Im using in order to obtain the software?

Is there a way to obtain the software on a computer without internet?

Let me know guys, Thanks.

Hey guys. I have a Yamaha P-155 digital piano, and a Lexicon Lambda USB interface. So far, I've been able to record the keyboard nicely via two cables (L and R) into the Lambda, into Garageband, and I've gotten some good results like this (thanks to your great suggestions on another thread!).

Storage Space Required - 3658.4 MB (3.57 GB)
This is the approximate amount of disk space 3 minutes of 37 track uncompressed WAV audio requires at 192 k / 24 bits.

Data Rate - 1219.48 MB/minute (20812.46 KB/second)
This is the total data rate of 37 track uncompressed WAV audio at 192 k / 24 bits.

So what equipment do I need for this?

How do,

First post so be gentle.

I have a ZOOM MRS-1044 which I've had for a few years. I've transferred tracks onto mini-disc which (somehow) I managed to transfer to my old PC via the mic input and put onto CD with no problems. I have replaced my PC and now find it cannot be done.

Hey Guys,

A little random I know.

I'm very fortunate to very shortly be receiving a Neumann U47 from Telefunken. I really want the same sort of quality and character of the vocal sound as found on many Michael Buble records...

Hi all. I would like your opinions on what to do next with this recording.

i want to record electric guitar tracks for my song - no Micing i.e direct recording through vamp or other effects processors. i m going to get a MOTU ultra lite.
so i want to know that after i install that card what would i have to configure to make it work with my recording software (Sonar 6 producer).
