That is one hell of a samplel there..

hi,

What's up RO fam,
I'm new to this forum and have enjoyed reading the different posts and picking up jewels here and there. I'm asking for recommendations from the knowledgeable people here on any upgrades that would enhance what I already own. I mainly work with hip hop artists and record some live guitar/bass here and there. Anyway here's my setup.

Here is my current gear.

Soundcard - EMU 1820m
Preamps - ADA8000, Toft ATC-2, (TF pro from EMU1820-M) Bluetube
DAW - Sonar 4 Producer
Mics - Studio Projects T3, MXL v63M, RODE NT1a, SM57, Studio Projects C4, AKG Drum mic kit (includes D112, C419, 3 C418)
Monitors - Tannoy J Protypes

Hi, i'm working in a small studio and have the following setup:

1 x 16 tr fostex recorder
1 x 8 tr fostex recorder
1 x Mackie 24x8 bus analog desk
1 x Mackie 24 channel extension

with some external compressors, fx, etc

I have 512 megs of ram right now and was going to upgrade to 1 gig. Will I notice a huge improvement for running plugins? How about the clicks/pops that I get?

I'm currently using either a Peavey Max Bass preamp or RODE NT1 mica into a Yamaha MG 12/4 analog mixer with the separate bus feeding two channels to an Edirol UA-1A A-to-D with USB 1.1 to my IBM P4 PC using Cakewalk Home Studio as my sequencer and digital audio recording program.
