For those of you who record music into your computer, what equipment do you use to actually get the sound into the computer? soundcards, mixers, EQ's, etc etc.. I'm just interested in what people around here are doing to bridge the gap between synth and computer. |

The only time i record anything into my computer i use the mini disc i record my drum sample thats that i have collected from various locations,iam very pleased that i will be getting a new mini disc player soon. God i'm really rabbiting on about shit today. |

I'm trying to figure out what shit I still need to buy before my setup will be record worthy, as it is now all I've got is my EX5 synth, Cubase SX and some midi cables.. not very far along am I? |

i'm not a good resource for technical information, and i don't record directly to my computer. anyway, in case you're interested, i have a g4, and use reason, sound studio, and occasionally thonk, protools free, rebirth and dsp quattro. for sampling sounds and phrases i record directly to a tascam cd recorder through a mixer. i also use a fender stratocaster with a malfunctioning peavey amp, and an ancient microphone from radioshack. |

i run all my synths and my pc through my mixer, mix it all together, and record it to dat. once i have a decent mix on dat, i run it back into the computer and record it into soundforge. burn cds |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so do your synths go into your pc first before going to the mixer? what is 'dat'? please elaborate on your set up. :) |
||||||||
|

dat is Digital Audio Tape. They look a bit like Video Tapes. High quality digital recordings. Used in most studioes. |

roland juno 106 fender P Bass (mexican) vestax mixer technics 1200 mk m-audio quattro usb audio/midi interface amd athalon 750mhz 256k ram (crappy) acid pro 4.0 soundforge 6.0 ableton live 2 reason fruityloops T-Racks i don't necessarily use all this stuff for each track. i am phasing out using Acid pro now that i have ableton live and i've just started dabbling in Reason. FLoops i find is good for just kinda sketching out songs and cutting some loops but i don't really use it for my serious editing and processing. more just as a loop/sound generator. same deal with Reason (so far). i've been having wierd problems with T-Racks so i've kinda stopped using it. For some reason, i can't get it to open wave files anymore...? |

A VCR and a videotape, that's probably been recorded over a dozen times. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think ill try ebay :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so if I got that, would i be able to run my ex5 to it just to use its internal soundcard? I'd much rather play my full 76 key keyboard than that little thing. ;) nobsmuggler: that link for creative didnt work. |
||||||||
|

| |||||||||
|
|
yes. hey 25keys is all you need man. it's also good for a live setup and to take your music-making anywhere with a laptop and ozone. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ok, then yeah I'll probably be buying that. :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah you should. i'm very happy with it m-audio also sell this bag for the ozone + laptop ps...i'm not a salesman for m-audio :) |

hehe, but you certainly deserve some discounts from them or something. :D yeah, I discovered the bag too, that's pretty fuckin nifty. ;) |

okay well a fraudulent transaction was made with my bank account so there is 290 dollars missing... it was a payment made to Pace University in NEW YORK and I pointed it out to the bank that my card is a campus card for UCF in ORLANDO, FLORIDA. Now I just have to wait a few weeks for those fucktards to give me my money back. Luckily I just got my last paycheck from working over christmas, so once I get that deposited I should still have enough to get me an ozone. :) |
