I was at Buddy Guy's Legends last night (Thursday) to see Buddy play.
He acknowledged Pickett's passing, and later on in the set, he invited
Jim Peterik (who's a good friend of his) to come up and jam with him
and the band on "Mustang Sally". It was Jim's idea, but oddly enough
Jim had come up with it a couple of days earlier, before Pickett died.
The whole house was rockin' to that one.
Ya know, for a 69-year-old dude, Guy still smokes. And I mean that in
a musical sense.

Sync masters,
Can I sync Cubase 2.? or 3.? to Paris using ADAT sync?
That is using XP with the Paris comp? Would it be better
to use smpte and/or MTC? I'm talking about two different
computers here.
Paris 3.0 comp is XP, 5 EDS, 1 UAD - two mecs each w/ 16 in/out + 1 ADAT =
module.
Cubase 2.1 comp is XP - has a Motu MIDI Express (USB) and a Delta 66.
My goal is to use Cubase primarily for MIDI. Ins and outs are lean on=20
that box so a card that provides sync and ADAT in/out would be good.
Trying to keep in the lower price range in general. Paris comp doesn't
have MIDI card yet either.
Thanks for rehashing this just one more time for me!
Tom

>Hey all,
As my little rock'n'roll outfit starts to gear up (no pun intended) for a
second CD I'm thinking of picking up one or maybe two channel strips for
the home studio where we'll be tracking. I'm willing to go up to roughly
the $2k range which means I'm only really ruling out Manley. So, for those
among you have have heard and used Summit, Focusrite ISA, Avalon, and vintage
lunchbox options, I would appreciate any ideas. Having used what I've used,
I would lean to the Avalon 737 or the Summit MPC-100 because I've used them
both in other studios and really liked them. Very clean tube sound.
As an aside, I was at rehearsal tonight and had a bit laugh. I'm binary boy,
right? All about the 1s and 0s, writing computer code and making electronic
music? In this rock band my signal path is
almost 20 year old 62 reissue strat w/ van zandt pickups -> fulltone wah
-> Moogerfooger analog delay -> Fulltone OCD overdrive pedal -> Moogerfooger
phase shifter -> Line 6 modulation modeller -> Top Hat Club Royale with a
THD Hot Plate attenuator to knock down the volume. The only piece of vaguely
modern gear is the digital emulator of old effects that is mostly used for
tremolo (has a gorgeous Vox bias trem effect). All of which is only to say
I'm not all that digital when it comes to guitars, which I think is funny.
TCBAnyone have a recommendation for a decent weighted-key midi keyboard? I
just can't get good timing on piano parts with the spring loaded ones.
Thanks,
EdnaXP can use lower cache and I/O sizes than ME and achieve equal results, except
much snappier.
Those settings look OK, theyk're kind of on the large side, escpeially the
256 I/O, but if your running lots of tracks, have lots of edits, or a slowish
computer, you may need that.
I've done a lot of experimentation with this and find that a lot of times,
I get the best performance with equal cache and I/O numbers, so with that
in mind I'd suggest lowering your I/O to 128, and see how that works.

I'm not a ProTools fan and might recommend other options for other reasons,
but in all fairness I don't know if I would write it out of your plans on
this rumor alone - just research carefully, and consider the cost of moving
it to a PC if the rumors become fact.

If I upgrade to Acid 6.0 (which is due out in 3/06) will softsynths running

Thanks again!
MRCubase SX and Nuendo both do this, but latency is cumalitive. Using an RME
card, I can get 1.5ms latency, but this is on the input and the output, so
that's 3ms (still doable), but add a couple of effects, each with a 2 or 3ms
latency, then you're up to 7-9ms latency, which is noticable to many people.
I have noticed that at 96k, you cut the RME's lowest latency in half, but if
the machine can't handle it, you end up having to increase the latency
anyway. I'm on an AMD 3200 (32bit), so perhaps the latest machines will be
able to do 96k at the lowest latency.

I think this is the bundle, and a great deal for people that want to get
into Final Cut Studio. It’s worth it to pick up a copy of Soundtrack Pro
(if you don’t have it) just to get the $199 update to the full bundle.
I’m in.

http://www.apple.com/finalcutstudio/topquestions.htmlthanks, i can get the bass sounding good once it's recorded but without
a good sound to start i can't get the feel right so i'll have to get
this box fixed. tech21 is at namm so i'll wait till they get back on
the 25th.
Thanks,

Just to be clear.
Most DAWS allow you to monitor live through plugins, and if your computer
is fast enough, you may get away with some plugins that add only small amounts
of latency.
NO DAW can compensate for plugin latency live on input.
genelatency is a bummer. Is that why everyone gets a UAD, cuz pcs are still
to slow to have no latency?

James you are right. The majority of Pro-Tools owners/Studios are Apple Based.
That would have been sucicide if they(Digi) would've drop support after the
realese of FCP & The purchase of Emagic.
However, Digi has been sending out messages(4 years) thru it's channels that
"it full steam ahead for the windows platform. I think by now, every ProTool
studio knows what's the master Digidesign/AVID plan.

There is still latency with the UAD-1 card. Most plugins are 1-2ms latency,
but something like the Pultec is at least 3ms (due to the 192k upsampling).
There are actually native plugins with lower latency than the UAD-1 fx. The
obvious advantage of the UAD-1 is that it doesn't suck cycles from your main
CPU.> NO DAW can compensate for plugin latency live on input.
> gene
Actually, I heard that the new UAD-2 card will have a built in Flux
Capacitor that will allow recording of a .wav file before it is actually
played. This should allow not only 0 latency recording, but NEGATIVE latency
recording! Unfortunately, it will only be able to play back Chuck Berry
riffs.

My information must be incorrect. I heard the UAD-2 ran on fuel cells.
gYes, but it will still have a carbuerator in order to retain tht *vintage*

I use an iX one as my main drum and guitar mic pre. Personally, I think it
sounds great on drums and guitar amps. You're right about using something
else for more pristine sources though, cause it does have a little color to
it. Nothing drastic, but it tends to round things out a bit (good on drums
and guitar cabs IMHO). It has a ton of gain and the pads come in real handy
when I track drums. For some strange reason, my AT 4050 CM5 doesn't like the
iX one's phantom power. All my other condensers work fine with it. I suppose
I should measure the voltage sometime to see what's up. That's the only
strangeness I've had with it though.

Gene,
I haven't been using Wavelab since I moved Paris

This is the company that makes yamaha lastest pro keyboards (Motif, Motif
ES(6,7 7 8) S90 range.. This latest version has motorized faders and a hostof
other goodies.You know, I respect what Roger Nichols has accomplished over the years, but
90% of the fun of recording for me is mixing it myself. It's the adventure
of making the mistakes and learning. I wonder what the price of this will
be, both monetarily and creatively? I suspect the cost will be high.

>Hi,
Saw, and heard these at NAMM as well... sounded pretty decent, and not
terribly spendy. The room mode crrection works pretty well and only
affects the low end. Software support for up to 10.1 surround if I
remember correctly. The cool thing is the Analog/SPDIF/AES inputs on
the back as well as the networking:

David.Hey don't get me wrong, it would be very handy for a lot of things. For starters,
it would get a lot of the default settings up and running. The bit I hate
about doing a mix is the bit where you sit there and go "right, I need to
do this to all the drum tracks" and go through one by one putting on the
same effect that you always use. With this thing it will get all the tracks
to your basic favourite default on it's own, and let me only have to deal
with the fun stuff...
....but I still see a concerning possibility for young wanna be's to buy
this and think they can mix. Mind you by the sound of it it needs you to
teach it what to do first anyhow, so if you can't teach it to mix it's not
likely to do much from what I'm reading, so maybe this isn't so much of a
risk.
Cheers,
Kim.

>>Hey Kim,
I've been getting some help here lately. This wouldn't have happened without
your installation and upkeep of the servers. You've been a most cool
successor to Mr. Chuck..
Thanks for your time and effort.
MRIt's a joke guys.
