Re: Converting WAV\'s To MP3 For Backing Up On CD ROM?

I recommend and use FLAC (http://flac.sourceforge.net/) to archive tracks. The "decompression" of the file results in a bit for bit identical twin to the original .wav file.

Re: I just bought my mbox...how can I make an mp3?

<standing ovation> This is why my days of checking out the DUC only happen once a month or so now. Why read the same posts over and over and over and over and over and over?

Re: Plug Ins on a budget

Oh, another one just popped to mind: Antares Tube (http://www.antarestech.com/products/tube.html). Makes everything from tracks, to submixes, to the master mix simply sound fuller and better. Not...

Re: Plug Ins on a budget

If you are recording guitar-driven rock, the plugins that come with ProTools LE surely can do the job. I find that there are other plugs that will sound better, but the DigiRack can serve the...

Re: tell me I shouldn\'t regret getting an MBox

I was having problems with this, and found changing Edit -> Preferences -> Advanced -> Streaming Buffer Size to Large eradicated my jitter problem.

Re: DUC User Recommendations on A/D conversion?...

Hey Ice! I bought 3 DigiMax 48 (not the LT, the predecessor to the DigiMax 96) on Ebay for about $66 per channel about a year ago. I'd seriously consider looking for a used DigiMax 48 or 96 so that...

Re: KATRINA

I am so glad to see that you made it through, Chris. I have been literally glued to the news due to a personal injury that has me bed-ridden, staring at the TV. You have crossed my mind more than...

Re: OT: Deciding on a new condenser

I am going to echo Chris's sentiments regarding the C414XLS. I bought a pair last year in December, and these mics are literally my go-to mic for anything and everything. Very natural, faithful,...

Re: Doc\'s still around

Hey Chris.

I cannot tell you how sorry I am to know that you are going through a suffering such as this. I do not frequent the DUC as much as I used to (or as much as I should) and I hate that I...

Re: A good mic preamp for digi002

Very cool. If you ever get out and about, there are quite a few DUC members in this area. Perhaps we should start the rumblings for a Balt/Wash DUC-together.

Sorry this took so long to reply,...

Re: A good mic preamp for digi002

Surprised no one has mentioned the UA 2-610. Two channel tube pre with some limited EQ control. Reportedly a very strong tube pre that is well below your $2000 budget limit and will not have to be...

Charlie ... I'm with you man. I really like the songs as instrumentals, and I think they can really play. Thank you for the kind words.

Re: Anyone here use the FATSO?

Hey Doc, I'd think that since you have the Distressors, a FATSO is going to be a bit redundant. Although the HEDD is supposed to be an amazing unit, I think it would be a bit redundant as well...

Re: New music

Thanks for the kind words, Chris. The more I have listened to "Summertime" and "Wait a Minute" I think I need to bring his lead vocal up a bit (just a db or so). I also have come to think that I...

Re: 2000.00 To Spend On a Pre....

Couldn't be easier, Joel. Four channel pre with four outs to your four analog line ins (5-8). It's almost as if it was built to go with a 002! Now if they would just throw one complimentary in the...

Re: APEX 460 Acoustic guitar test - sample

Thanks for the links and taking the time to post the files, Chris. I guess I'll be on the quick road to getting one (or two) 460s. Thanks to you. Although, the CFO (read: my wife) is using other...

Re: 2000.00 To Spend On a Pre....

Here, here! Consider this a second (or third) vote for the Great River MP-2NV. Wonderful pre for vocals and guitars! Can be a bit "dark" or "moody" for some people's tastes, but I like to think of...

Re: APEX 460 Acoustic guitar test - sample

Hey Chris,

I think it is about time to get a couple tube mics. Can you post where you bought the modded 460? Did you specify the mods or is there a menu of mods that your guy does?

I was...

IMHO, you are really getting a nice 'dimensional' sound on Tom. I understand that it is rough, but the foundation is there to do something very nice with...
