Get 1 presonus and 1 8pre. I will connect the presonus to the ADAT
of the 8 pre.
Sound better?

Soundcraft makes some pretty decent smooth sounding pre's in your price range.

>Hey Deej,

I'm not quite as black and white about onboard firewire as Lamont. I've seen
both desktops and laptops that--with good drivers--are usable for reasonably
sized audio projects. I lot of time you wind up doing some old school things
in the BIOS but it can be done.

That said, the difference in performance, quality, ease of install, and reliability
with the RME cardbus system vs. _everything_ out there for portable is, well,
stark. Put the card in, flash the bios in the card if necessary, connect
an interface, set latency to 1.5ms everywhere possible, and never ever ever
ever think about it again.

Unless you have to figure out total mix.

What Steve said.

And skip the mics for now and get yourself a matched pair of lava lamps instead..

I'm dropping some bucks on analog stuff to record my band. I'm going to get
a couple of cheaper things (RNP/RNC combos and such) but was thinking of
one of these. It seems to fit nicely for what I want feature wise. Simple
opto dynamics, two bands of shelf EQ, and a pretty good pre. It could be
linked for overheads and room mics or split for individual instruments. And
it even will work as a DI for bass and guitars.

It's coming down to this or a Portico dual pre and dual compressor combo.
That's nearly twice the scratch, which isn't impossible, but if anyone has
thoughts I'd be interested.

Thanks,

TCBI've heard this unit described as being very transparent. I almost bought
one of these because I was looking for something nice for acoustic
instruments, then Mike Claytor decided to sell his Great River MP2-MH for
about the same price and I grabbed it. I'm not sure this will have the
attitude that is possible with the Neve, but attitude can be added at any
time, I suppose. I'm getting a Neve Portico stereo comp in here next week.

------=_NextPart_000_000D_01C75079.9AB708E0--Thanks guys, its now working great. I could not get it working with the
nvidia geforce2 video card - some type of resource hogging(not IRQ). With
the EDS card out video worked great. I tried the EDS in slots 2 and 3, but
video would lose resolution with an error message that it couldn't find
enough resources. Tried a Matrox G450 and no problem. Paris installed and
runs fine. I did switch HDs to a clone I had, so not sure what the loss of
video problem was yet on the other drive. I have a newer nvidia geforce
6200 though that I need to work so I can use my 20" digital monitor
(1680x1050), which lets me get the whole mixer on screen. x

Check the last line of the system requirements. I'm building my wife a new
graphics computer based on an AMD64 4200 x 2 CPU on an ASUS A8V-Deluxe mobo
(used to be my native DAW). She's migrating from a Cobalt G4 and needs to be
able to access her old files that she created on her Mac.

Is there another app that will do this or do I need not worry? I can't call
them. It's too late and I need to know the answer to this right now or I
will die.

Thanks,

Deej?What kind of files? Photoshop and Illustrator files are cross platform as
are almost all generic graphic file formats like jpg, gif, pict, bmp, tiff
etc.
Should not be a problem.

either buy another one to use as a
killer stereo LDC pair or sell/trade this one. Comes with
Cherrywood box, and will include B.L.U.E. Series 1 Shockmount
with it. $800

2.) B.L.U.E. Baby Bottle - Kick-ass mic for male rock vocals,
and I've found it can sound killer on hi-hat, too. I've heard
some guys like it on guitar; me, not so much. I also understand
that rappers LOVE this mic - I don't work in that genre, so I
dunno.... if you so any work in that genre, it might be a nice
asset for not much money. Strong midrange presence, but without
the "adenoidal" quality that some mics with this characteristic
can sometimes impart. Just simply another really great B.L.U.E.
Class-A LDC. Not something I'd really use in a stereo pair, and
I have two, so I don't need both of 'em. Missing a setscrew at
the very top of the windscreen - B.L.U.E. no longer has this
specific screw, so you'd have to find it in your area if you
want to replace it... two studs at opposing thirds of the
grille assembly hold it solid, though - just TRY to get it
loose as it is, I dare ya! (lol) Comes with Cherrywood box &
swivelmount (no shock). $400

3.) Neumann M-149 Multi-pattern Tube LDC. (YES! Another
microphone! I have Thirty-freakin'-one'-freakin-microphones,
and I don't need QUITE that many right now! OK, maybe
I do - maybe I just need a few different ones from some of the
ones I got... just keep reading, dammit! lol). OK, this is my
only slightly beat-up piece, I got it from Bearsville when they
closed recently. It's currently got a Peluso K-67-type capsule
in there right now (the orignal one was trashed - I still have
it & could include it, but it needs re-skinning), one screw that
holds the windscreen is broken, but the remaining three screws
hold the screen in place with nary a wobble. To restore this
aspect to original condition you would have to remove the
broken portion of the screw from the body & get a replacement
screw. Also, the green LED in the power supply does not work
(I've written Neumann about getting this as replacement part,
but have not yet been able to establish if it's available); no
biggie, as this particular version of the power supply does not
come with a switch - you plug it in, it's on... you remove the
plug, it's off... who needs the fuckin' LED? This is a well-
used mic, OK? No major scratches or gouges, but the finish has
that typical Neumann patina to it. The Peluso CEK-67 capsule is
brighter than the stock M-149 capsule, take my word for
it.. it sounds more open & a little "looser", if that makes any
sense... more dynamic? Maybe that's a good way to describe it.
Also, the back side of the mic on Fig-8 with the stock capsule
on these mics is damn near identical to the front side, while
the Peluso is slightly different on the back side - a teensy,
weensy, tiny bit less high end & low end than the front side.
Most mics have a perceptible difference like this in Fig-8, I'm
just telling you upfront the differences between the stock
capsule & the Peluso one on this mic.
SPECIAL BONUS!!! I have a brand-spankin' new B.L.U.E. Cactus
capsule that I will swap out with the Peluso one if you want...
in either instance, it would come with a Cherrywood box,
shockmount, and of course, PSU & PSU cable. I'll offer this
setup in the following configurations:
a.) With Peluso CEK-367 capsule (already installed) $3,000
(includes stock capsule - bad/needs reskinning)
b.) With B.L.U.E. Cactus Capsule installed $3,500
(does not include separate stock capsule)
c.) With the stock Neumann capsule ONLY $2,700
(PERFECT if you want an M-149 CHEEEP to send to Klaus or SPA
for reskinning/reworking!)

4.) Neumann M-147 - this much-disparaged mic is really a damn
good one if you're looking for something smooth & not "hyped"
(Brandon asking about how to get that "bassy, intimate vocal"
on Bing Crobsy/Sinatra-kind of Christmas Carols? This mic'll do
it). It's a hybrid tube/SS circuit, so it's not super-bright
like a TLM-somethingorother and it's not as "warm" a

s a full-
tube circuit - it's somewhere in between. Dark or neutral mic
pres are not so good with this mic, but something like a
Chandler TG2 sounds great (more wooly & adds some high-end
air), or a Grace with that slight upper-midrange bump &
extended highs also works really well, or a Great River MP2NV
with the Transformers set to "unloaded". This mic now has the
stock capsule back in it, but I've had a Peluso K-67-type in
there (the one that's now residing in the M149 above) and it
REALLY opened up the top end quite a bit. You can get these
caps

/> of course assuming anyone decides they want to grab it. It's
kind of dependant on whatever deal gets done first on which
mic... either way, you won't get fucked over, I'll see to that.
So, I'll also price this kit using a couple different options,
as follows (in all instances, this mic will come with a
swivelmount, PSU & PSU cable, and a nice Neumann aluminum case
for the kit!):
a.) Pure Stock w/stock capsule installed $1,500
b.) w/Stock capsule installed & Peluso CEK-367 included $1,675
c.) w/Peluso CEK-367 installed & stock one included $1,800

5.) Custom LDC w/David Royer Tube Circuit - (YES, ANOTHER
MICROPHONE!) This is an MXL V67 (color is black w/black grille)
that David Royer thought had a great capsule design, and
subsequently published a circuit - and later offered a kit for -
a conversion upgrade to a tube circuit & accompanying PSU for
this mic. Mike Claytor - who used to hang out here on this NG -
built this one, and it's a stellar piece of workmanship beyond
what I've seen on other DIY stuff I've run across (Deej also

One thing to avoid is the Firewire A(400)/B(800) combo cards they have
the most compatibility issues.

I did a search for it specifically and found one that has 3 ports up to 400.
So it is not a 400/800.
aLSO IT IS A ti CHIPSET.
$41 WITH SHIPPING.
Thanks for the help guys.

>>Yes, lower buffer equals lower latency, but higher processor load.
Basically, it's best to record using the lowest buffer setting you can,
without your computer choking. Then, when everything's recorded, set the
buffer higher, and you'll have more processor overhead available for
plug-ins, more playback tracks, VSTi's, etc. during mixing. The only thing
the higher buffer does on playback is maybe add a few hundred milliseconds
to the responsiveness of starting and stopping. So when you hit "play" you
have to wait a whole 1/3 of a second before sound starts coming out. Not a
big deal in the grand scheme of things.

two apps were being picked up by Paris till I hid
them. When Paris began working, I unhid them and Paris picked them up and
once again I was getting the c0000005 error on close. Rehid them and error
went away. So there were two factors in my case causing this error. These
plugs, nero resize, and FL plugs are not even functional in Paris, but I'm
not sure how to stop Paris from picking them up other that to uninstall
them.

> (859) 635-5762HI Brandon,
Driver -
Not all the routing features are available in the current drivers. You
can at the moment only use the analog and the first bank of adat in the
internal routing control.

Every unit we've gotten so far has had hardware issues.
dead or abnormally noisy inputs or outputs.
Weird zippering sounds when using the mic gain and also the headphone
channels.
Grounding noise and buzzing units.

If they work out some of these mechanical and or drivers issues then the
unit will be a great device but so far I've had to replace almost every
unit with some other device.

The Focusrite Sapphire Pro is the only other in that price range with
similar features. It doesn't have the routing features of the Presonus
but has the same number of I/O.

In the long run I think you really better off going with the MOTU and
RME products.

If the the budget is an issues then I would recommend.

Any of these would work in that budget and give you the cuemix controls
similar to Presonus and RME.


1x MOTU 8Pre
1x Presonus Digimax FS
$1080.00
This will give you 16 analog ins and 12 analog outs.

or

2x MOTU 8 Pre - $1070.00
This will give you 16 analog in 4 analog outs (8 if you count the
seperate headphones)
You will also have 16 channels of ADAT to use. So if you add 2 DigimaxFS
to each of those you could have 32 analog ins and 24 outs.
