I'm using a digi 001. I want to use a Focusrite voicemaster pro to apply effects to vocal tracks tracks that have already been recorded but I don't know how to route it.

Can anyone help?

This should be an easy one.

When applying compression and/or effects...is there a correct order? (i.e. Compression before/after reverb)

This is confusing. People please help me with some signal chain set ups.

1. Mic
2. High-end monstercables
3. Mic Preamp (Sebatron Thorax or Joemeek Twin Q? not sure)
4. out to D/A converter
5. Into Digi 002 via high-endcables
6. Out to KRK V8's

After many months of hard work in my small home studio I finally finished my first song, although it is no great masterpiece there was a lot of knowledge gained from my experience. What’s more important are the questions that arose from this practice.

ok.. so I'm attempting to create my own guitar amp out of seperate components and I need help putting everything in the right order.
The idea is to get the best guitar tone I can possibly get direct to disk. No mics, no cabinets and no angry neighbors.

Where I should put the preamp when recording?

1. MPC>Preamp>Mixer>Computer
2. MPC>Mixer>Preamp>Computer
3. MPC>Preamp>Computer without Mixer

Thanks for all you help, my English is not very well, hope all you can understand what I talking about.
Thanks!

Kurt,

I've spent hours going through these posts the last couple of days...just stumbled in on the forum. There is a lot of great things written here and I'm trying to digest them all.

probably will purchase next week wht do you think? RODE nt2--grace 201--rnc--Apogeepsx 100 ad/da. thanks for advive

What order do you folks recommend doing things in the signal chain..

EQ
Dynamics
effects
etc.

Question for you guys... I'm going to scrape together enough dough to build a top of the range vocal/instrument stereo channel. I've got about $15,000 to spend. I've researched a little, and here's what I'm thinking:

CRane Song Flamingo Pre

Avalon AD2055 EQ

2 CRane Song Trakkers
