levels while tracking and mixing?
I record into a Emu 1212m using Cubase SX.
TRACKING QUESTION: Should the input channel be set to 0db?
should I push the preamp level up untill I'm almost redlining the input channel or is that to much?
Mixing QUESTION: how hot should the signal be on the output meter?
thanks in advance,
Mark

event monitors for tracking/mixing
Hi all! I know these won't fit the "exclusive pro" standard, but how would you rate the event 20/20 bas V2? I've heard the old ones, but not the new. I allways thought the oldies deserved a second look, they weren't all flat but, once you got to know them, and to know how they handled lo freqs, mixes would translate very well. So I'm curious about the new ones...
Anyone?

Please need advice..
Tracking with limiters?
Hi all. This seems like a good place to ask about this. I record mostly acoustic music. Sometimes I record other performers (usually vocals, violin or piano), but more often I’m recording myself playing acoustic steel string guitar, acoustic baritone, classical guitar, various resonator slide guitars, snare drum and brushes, assorted hand percussion, etc.
