    I want to record using my computer but is it possible to use a TUBE mic preamp?

    Hey, You'll have much better luck recording THAT sound using a good soundcard rather than just relying on ProTools...ProTools itself doesn't guarantee a good recording unless the convertors and drivers sending the audio into it are good. Take care, Nick

    Neptunes Biting Kid From Canada!!!!

    Here's some food for thought, I can't wait for the logic to come: What about jacking software? Person A using a product that Person B put together, using it for their own personal gain, without Person A giving anything to Person B for their work? Intellectual rights area a real mother...

    Zee Germanz arrrrraagghhh komink!

    From a forum at Cubase.net: The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the EU rather than German which was the other possibility. As part of the negotiations, Her Majesty's Government conceded that English spelling had some...

    Save your brain....

    Hey, WHAT??!?!?!?! Why would anyone need the frigging MIDI sequence for any of these tracks? They're all a bunch of 3-note patterns looped over and over and over....if you download the MIDI sequence, often you're stuck removing all the controller information at the beginning because it...

    Look at this keyboard

    Hey, I messed around with one the other day...for someone looking to mess around a little with music on their computer it's awesome; for someone looking to take music a little more seriously it is very limiting: - no velocity (from what I could tell) - small keys - flimsy Plus, you'll...

    Is ReWire it's own application??

    Hey, If you have 5.0, I don't think Reason will work, only Rebirth. Yes, I remember the 1.0 release of SX, recording MIDI was an absolute nightmare, I was pretty angry because I spent about $150 for the upgrade from VST 5.2. They're up to 1.06 now, things are a lot better, you should...

    Is ReWire it's own application??

    Hey, We used to link Rewire programs at work, it's different for each application. Simple answer: you MUST read in the host program's manual how its Rewire implementation works. Each host program has its own way of routing audio and transport control to and from the Rewire app. If my...

    mpc problem

    Hey, I don't know what happened exactly to your gear, but I do know that weird bursts of power can do all sorts of nasty things to gear if you're not careful. You'll be pleased to hear that internal Zip drives are very cheap, I've seen them as low as $40 for refurbished ones. Maybe not...

    Where do I go from here?

    Hey, I know that this post will anger a few people, and to be honest I don't really care... Concerning the schooling route: I just had dinner with a few friends this evening, we spent about 2 hours debating the pros and cons of Pro Tools and audio schooling, one of the people at our...

    AKsys

    Hey, I think Aksys is just a program you use to control the Akai z-series and S5000/6000 samplers from your computer across USB, and nothing more! It will do you absolutely no good unless you own one of these samplers. Here's a little info on it...

    Pentium 4 vs. Celeron

    Hey, When buying a brand computer, I make sure of a few things: 1. It has normal PCI slots. A lot of the recent Dell and Gateway computers have mini-PCI slots which won't allow you to put in normal soundcards. 2. It comes with a REAL Windows OS disk, not this 'system restore' crap...
