    Logic Help

    This is the case for logic studio so I'm going to assume it's the case for express as well..go into the audio options and check the box marked independent monitoring for record enabled strips (or something to that affect, you'll see it). that should do the trick. also, if you have separate...

    I have a problem with cover/tribute bands.

    The Beatles didn't become the revolutionaries they were until they broke away from those rockabilly covers. Yes, and anyone else mentioned as "starting as a cover band," didn't become the band they were until they stopped playing covers. Playing music is fun, no matter what you are playing...

    I have a problem with cover/tribute bands.

    Cover bands serve their purpose. I am not a big fan of them nor do I necessarily have all that much respect for them, but they serve their purpose. They entertain the type of people who go out to the bars every weekend with their high school friends, fighting off their thirtieth year alive...

    Do i need a master clock?

    A separate master clock is more accurate, but you can set the clock in either your interface or the digimax as the master.

    MXL 990

    What kind of vocals are you trying to record? I sing loudly and somewhat on the abrasive side, and of all the mics I have I've found my $10 Nady Starpower to work best. If you want something warmer and smoother you can look into some of the ribbon mics that Nady makes. If you're trying to...

    Horrible "white noise" in garageband.

    Check out the Audio/MIDI setup in your mac's utility folder and make sure that your default input is line in as opposed to the built in mic.

    MXL 990

    Eh. It's an OK vocal mic if you EQ out all the annoying presence spikes. It's decent for micing a guitar amp as well if you follow the same advice.

    Guitar Stereoization Problem

    Stereo mic your amp! Place one mic close to the grill at a 45 degree angle on the left, and another mic farther out in the room, at least two or three feet, facing the grill at a 45 degree angle on the right. This way, the sound from your amp hits each mic a few milliseconds apart from each...

    looking to buy an interface

    If that's your price range, look into the Alesis IO 26. It's got eight analog ins and outs with pres as well as the capability of handling up to 26 ins and outs (via SPDIF, ADAT, and Optical). Firewire. Decent pre amps, decent A/D converter, and it comes with Cubase.

    Am I blessed?

    i love my bandmates. we get along great, the musical chemistry is great. we don't step on each other's toes and we always take everything everyone has to say into consideration. i can honestly say that, by default, everything is split perfectly three ways.

    Mixing between two different DAWs. What file type?

    If you save a project as .OMF, you still have access to the audio files (wavs or aiffs) even if the .OMF doesn't work. It saves an audio files folder just as it would with any save, so if the .OMF fails you can still drag in the audio files track by track.

    Mixing between two different DAWs. What file type?

    If you use an .OMF you won't have to set up a new session and drag each track in separately, you wil be able to open the session file as is and it will translate everything to whatever DAW you are using.
