    Should i invest in a mixer?

    ok, i use cubase sx and an m-audio 24/96 card. i like the quality i produce thus far, however when recording vocals, guitars, anything audio, i always get really low input levels. me and my friend are using his P.A system as an amp for vocals (which are VERY low and require a lot of...

    Digging: Crap/Jewel ratio.....

    so, THIS is the joy and pain of digging.... for every useable sample i wade through tons of crap (looking at a wider pallette now, leaving the soul behind....), well, not necessarily crap, actually a lot of good music, but things that jump out as a dope sample are far and few between... but i...

    is there a way to filter drums (specifically snares/rimshots) from a sample?

    is there a way to do this? i have found a few samples that i want to use, but may not be able to do much with unless i can find a way to filter these out... without messing up the sample itself? i know this is probably a tall order.. so far i have had some success with getting the highs/lows...

    ok, i'm a cheater. i dont dig (yet... i'm on my way to that point.. i'm still in "composer" mode for the most part)but anyways i have basically found my next ep's material (the beats on second ep will be all samples, in contrast to the all-composed-written-and-aranged-by-myself method of the...

    BPM for samples.. HELP!

    i always sound like a damn fool when i embark on a new way of doing things, and this will be no different. i began sampling again and i am clueless on how to find out the bpm of a song on cubase. any suggestions? the time stretch and pitch shift works but i dont know the correct values. any...

    going back to sampling....

    well guys.... i was listening to Ayatollahs "Personal Legend" the other day. i was asking how my beats compare to ayatollahs (i am actually beginning to think i am not that far off to being able to hang with "the big boys"... tell me if i'm gassed here and being overly confidant...) and he was...
