I'm sharing this with everyone for what it's worth. A few months ago, I was asked to run sound for and record a fairly large church service this past Sunday. Due to the size of the event, it was being held in the ballroom of a hotel. This meant that I would not be given the opportunity of...

I have both the Tascam USB interface and the M-Audio 2496 card. Both are great interfaces, especially since both have street prices that are under $200. In terms of the software to use, I've been using Cubase since VST3.5 and wouldn't switch at all. I agree that it has a learning curve that...

I'll..uh...hold on to your gear...a human supervised storage space...yeah, that's the ticket...while you decide what to do. :D :D :D

Thanks for the clarification. I guess I should follow my own advice about checking background information, eh? :(

+1 to the poster who said that the Audigy wasn't meant for recording. Spend the $150 for a M-Audio 2496 or a Tascam US-144. The latter works on a USB interface and delivers 96KHz / 24 bit recording in 2 tracks simultaneously on a USB 2.0 interface with 0 latency. I own both of these...

As I understand it, more bits do not give you more headroom. They simply allow the dynamics to be more accurately represented in the recording. Higher sample frequencies (44, 48, 96, etc.) allow for a richer set of harmonics to be captured, leading to a more accurate representation of the...

+1 There are substantial differences in the products depending on which route you choose.

Can anyone recall the most recent performance (before their breakup obviously) when the Beatles did not all smile for the entire gig? Thread over. :D

I'm the keyboardist in my band and it takes me longer to setup than anyone else due to the amount of equipment I have. I feel the same way about the rest of the members. ;)

As my good friend "HooBass" calls them, both "Brown-Eyed Swirl" and "What About Poo" should be banned.

Actually, with maybe the exception of classical where the complete aural range (notes and dynamics) are important, music that you listen to is extremely compressed. I can't stress that enough. Your best bet might be to try a band filter or a graphic equalizer. If memory serves me correctly...

Take a look at the bass solo in the middle of this song. It starts at around 2:35. Yes, it's Yanni. And, yes, the solo is phenomenal also.

This is all fascinating. I didn't know about the detuning, but it explains a few things. Thank &deity; for Melodyne! :P

Eric, is that Cubase?
