Cool. thanks so much. Do I need to have the -10 db on to prevent damage or am I okay? I know it's not the most expensive mic but it's the most expensive mic I've ever touched and I'm afraid of damaging it as it's not mine. In terms of mic'ing the kit we are really just scraping together what we can ...

yes you can use it. put it half way between the center of the head and the rim. not in front of the port hole. you will probably need another mic inside for some beater attack as well. the outer mic will mostly pick up low end. or try a minimal set up thing and look up the glyn johns technique. Dis...

Can I use LDC mic on a kick..

My friend loaned me a Groove Tube GT66. It is a large diaphragm condenser mic. It will handle 135 to 150 spl depending on the db -10 switch. Can I use this on a kick drum? Without ruining it? We don't play heavy heavy music but we do play rock.

If I can use it--placement?

Thanks all.

That makes sense. What about plug ins? I'm asking because I had some trouble setting up plug ins initially. So I was worried the plug ins would be in conflict with one another.

I've yet to make ASIO for ALL work and am using the manufacture plug ins from Mackie and Alesis.

Also:
1. Changed Video Card Settings
2. Reduced bit rate on display colors

Sonar 6 requires 1 GB of Ram. So I'm only half as much.

Any ideas on how I should compensate?

Have not tested the above items. Will test this afternoon.

I'm a Mac guy so I can't be 100% sure, but even though the computer may be fast enough (845 MHz - I think my old Mac G4 was only around 400 MHz but it recorded well), I think 512 Mb is not enough RAM. Check the recommended specs for the software and hardware. If it needs more RAM, see if you can st...

Noob Help With Playback Skipping

I love tape op. I've just been getting into recording. Some buddies set me up with some of their gear for the summer. I figured out how to record. But my computer skips on playback. I did some searching but found all kinds of different answers but I don't really know where to start. Maybe someone he...
