and stupid radio shack sold me a switch that's normally open...

damn thing works backwards!

back to fix this crap tomorrow...

I don't happen to own one, or I think I would have. Since I'm building a box I can choose a momentary instead of a toggle, that'll be more ideal anyway. This is the first record I'm doing in my new location so I've never had good enough isolation in my control room to prevent me hearing what they we...

oh i have talkback for my voice already, and i put up an otherwise unused mike in the live room for the talent to talk to me and bring it in on a channel so i can hear it in the room. just wanted a push to talk button i could put on that mike so i didn't have to operate it for them. my studio is in ...

Kensington Expert Mouse http://us.kensington.com/html/2200.html +1 here. i'm a mouse guy but always dealing with stuff on my desk, taking up space and wanting to have low sensitivity for precise movements when editing and such the mouse always wanted to much of that desk space. 'till i did a sessio...

i'm getting frustrated with tracking guitars and drums and not being able to hear the performers when they need to talk to me. i have to leave a mike open and mute it when they're playing, try to remember to unmute when they want to talk... so i want to make (or get, if somebody knows of something l...

yea, that sounds like you need to go through the win7 optimizations sheet on the avid site. turn off putting hard drives to sleep and stuff. i'm getting word that the bugs i'm having with crackly punching in and out is related to the 002/003 drivers so i'm waiting for those to be updated... if you a...

is it a core i7? i don't have personal experience with chips that new but there is a thread there (on the DUC) for people to post performance and experience with i7 based computers. my experience with PT9 hasn't been bug free. nothing that's preventing my work or affecting my mixes. but i've gotten ...

i was in your place for years. i recently made the transition and bought a house and installed my studio. best advice i can give is be patient. do what you can with what you have and don't give up. do you have a mix setup right now? maybe for now build a mobile setup. just be patient, save up and do...

sounds like you got the right idea, man! i've had sessions were i ended up "completely" replacing a snare or kick when the band's drumset was that bad. but even in those cases there's still original drum in the overheads and room mikes so it's still not a total replacement. i make a habit of recordi...

i think there are far more specific cases of incompatible hardware now, than in the past when there were specific cases of hardware compatibility.

head over to the DUC pt9 on windows section and ask if you've got a question about a specific hardware component.

I gradually became addicted to the High Pass Filter as a mix tool. Not only can it be a boomy reducer, it also gives you more head-room because it cuts out frequencies that take up a lot of energy. Sometimes it seems like you can cut everything all the way up to 100hz unless it's a bass drum, bass ...

finished mixing audio for an independent feature film called "Sunblocked" that's gonna start showing around film festivals in new england over the next few months. my first movie. spent most of my time cleaning noise since the crew didn't really know what they were doing with audio. but hey, my firs...

that's quite a rant, but ray charles greatness wasn't created by limited recording means, he succeeded in spite of those limitations. the method by which music is recorded has nothing to do with how good it is. music was never better because it was harder to record it. if your argument was true than...

don't forget about this!

if i was getting 3 57's i would want a pair regular and one like this.

(and since i already have a pair i plan to one day get another like this)

ok, "bandit hat" doesn't have any of the spectrum issues that the other song had. again, cool guitars, great sound. i like the drums in the quiet part but since they're electronic they don't work as well when the loud part comes in and they're trying to emulate a real drumset. maybe find a way to le...
