Well that's what being a freelance engineer/producer is about, no? You bring work/projects (bands) into existing studios to record them. Sure they have house engineers, but the band wants to work with YOU for your dope skills, not some unknown(to them) house guy. So the band pays you for your servic...

I looked back at the specs for what I put in for RAM and HD's. 2 Micron 512MB's and (2) Western Digital IDE 80GB's. I just checked my motherboard out and it can handle 3 RAM cards of up to 1GB each, so I could get my total RAM up to 3GB total. I wonder if there are any limitations against me doing t...

drive allocations for Protools (suggestions please)

I run PTLE 7.3 / digi002r on a pc. I know that Digidesign says you should run PT from the system drive. I already had some large programs/files(photoshop/etc) on my system drive and PT was running super slow when installed there too. So I had better results installing/running Protools from my 2nd in...
