  1. Supposed to be hard disk recorder.
  2. I had one of these interfaces and used it for a while. I was struggling at the time to be able to get recordings on the computer without dropouts. For years I recorded on a hard discuss.cakewalk.com recorder... akai dps12... then tascam 2488. The spidf from the tascam worked to sync with the m-audio. I would mix in cakewalk. I still record by setting and forgetting. I often record for 3 hours without interruption. When i mix in cakewalk, I sometimes mix all songs in a single project. Sometimes i create a project for each song after the main recording.
  3. Mix bus is cool and keeps improving. The export measures loudness on ebu, which i think is helpful if you want the tracks of your record to be similarly loud. But in cakewalk, I listen while measuring loudness and I often find things to adjust. In other words, listening to the mix has value. My brother pointed out to me that I don't own any microphones with a low enough noise floor To test my interface specs, even if I had a silent chamber to put them in. I color lots of stuff. Tubes. Silk on the pre amp. I'm totally fine that I cannot hear the difference of two high quality interfaces. I can hear a good preamp from bad. I loved the sound of a focusrite that I had for a bit. It sounded fantastic. The rme sounds transparent to me now, but that's because I've had it so long. Idk how long. 15 years? I don't replicate all my steps mix to mix even when using templates. If you use templates, try skipping it once in s while. Doing things manually gets you thinking/ listening again.
  4. I remember doing a flac test. I bounced to 24 bit 48. I exported as flac. Imported. Null test bounce. Normalize the result of the null test bounce. There was clearly one bit of info lost in the flac. I think that wave does not store the most significant bit because it presumes it is 1. I think flac does store it. Therefore, flac minus wav loses 1 bit of sound.
  5. I like it when cakewalk is getting improvements. How we fund those,idk. I love cakewalk though. It's my computer home -- the only app I really use.

    It is fairly reliable. I've done maybe 10 sessions without issue, but last Sunday one channel went funny. I guess it's just life.
  7. How about downloading the app?
  8. Could you please ask a question about eq, compression, reverb? I am useless in old versions of Javascript.
  9. Math is cool. There is a term in computing called seeding for random numbers. You inject something... anything... and it helps get something different. It works both ways. Computers can inspire us too.
  10. Babu, I recently learned that alembic is the vessel an alchemist uses to break down one metal to make another. I thought that was interesting. This is why they named the company that way... breaking down the component parts and rebuilding it to make gold. This was mentioned in the book, this is all a dream we dreamed.
  11. I liked this. It made me like her even more.
  12. https://gmusom.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_bPANH5QIKCXghdI My kid is going to find folks to fill out this survey. Any help helps. Please feel free to share anywhere. Thanks. Can we say this is related to music via psycho killer?
  13. It sucks. Music therapy today with neighbors helped. Played for hours. Yay. I'm managing.
  14. I got bitten by a tick in my front yard. Now I can't eat pork, beef, lamb... and dairy is iffy.
  15. Are there high and low inputs on the amp? What if there is another pedal after it?
  16. @jesse g I usually pair certain mics. You don't have to have a single group. Like what bapu said about room mics... phase alignment kinda defeats the purpose. You could align them together though. This will ensure the snare hit occurs concurrently from both mics. also, I tend to click analyze, then change the button for memory and do it again. Then I compare the two. You can usually hear the difference.

    I thought about the grounding too, but it should be sufficient that it is in a steel rack with other grounded things. Whatever it is, I'm sure it is my fault.

    My neve is a 5211. I have used samson patch bay. I'm by-passing it and filming with a web cam looking for whether the meters jump when it happens. I've recorded for like 20 hours without error. I'm going to leave it like this and get back to recording music. We will see what happens.

    I'm still trying. I'm filming the thing trying to catch it messing up. Recording TV for days. Maybe the whole time my problem is in my patch bay. Idk

    There is no change after adding the furman. The Neve is unreliable. I'm sad but I know what to do. I'm going to pull it from the rack and not look back.
  21. I measure from the center of the snare to the mics using a mic cable so they are close. I use mautoalign by melda. It usually accurately tells me how far apart mics were. Kinda fun. You can tell if a mic was moved two feet to the left at Set break.
