Re: MBOX and external Microphone Preamplifiers

"2. One can use the inserts on the MBOX, (The inserts are after the MBOX mic pres and before the MBOX A/D's. The insert option circumvents all MBOX preamplifier circuitry)
but this has a couple of...

Re: MBOX and external Microphone Preamplifiers

You can do it - I'm running my Great River and Dav preamps through the MBox 1 - you just need to wire up a cable to get the signal in through the insert return channel. Completely bypasses the...

Re: BFC2000 controller with 002R?

The BCF works perfectly with PT. Select HUI mode when starting it up (can't remember which key to hold, but the manual tells you how). Then start PT. Then go to peripherals (sorry, not in front of...

Upgrade monitors or converters?

So, I'm currently running a 002R into Genelec 8030/7050B combo, and want to improve my monitoring. What do people think would be money better spent:

Option A: Rosetta 200 plus Coleman M3PH Mk11...

Low latency monitoring when using SPDIF

I'm wanting to record and monitor via SPDIF (and external converters) on an 002 or 002R. Does low-latency monitoring still work when you are coming in and going out via SPDIF (and Rosetta 200)? The...

Re: Bypassing MBox preamps - direct in

OK, schoolboy error - please ignore this one. Stupid is the word. It's tip on the preamp output to ring on the MBox insert in.

But - should the ring on the preamp output be left floating, or...

Re: Bypassing MBox preamps - direct in

Am I being a bit stupid with cabling here. The MBox is tip send, ring return for the insert. So if use a balanced cable (TRS) and simply cut the tip connection on both ends, it should work, shouldn't...

Re: Genelec 8030\'s

I've been using them without a sub for a few weeks (awaiting the arrival of a 7050B), and I think that they are pretty crisp and clear and stereo imaging is good. They're small, so positioning is...

Re: Tascam US 2400 Master Fader-Please Help

May be wrong, but I don't think the HUI protocol features a master fader - so the fader on the US2400 becomes redundant. But the master fader becomes part of the fader banks - so when you shift banks...

Bypassing MBox preamps - direct in

Hi all. Does anyone know which is the best route in via an MBox to completely avoid the preamps, and hit the converters directly? I'm going through a Great River ME-1NV into a Distressor and into the...

Re: Quad is a BEAST! (Of the right kind!)

Quad is a BEAST! (Of the right kind!)

Digi have taken a lot of stick over performance lately. I was bitching about my new Quad not working as well as I'd hoped, but I'd overlooked one or two of the optimisation settings. This thing is...

Sessions Mac and PC \"swoppable\"

If I didn't set a session as cross-platform when initiating it, can it be done later? Also, a studio that I'm interfacing with runs PC - do they need to set their sessions "Mac compatible" when...

Re: Dbx 386 plus FMR RNLA... good combo?

Just about every mid-range piece of gear that I've bought, I've ended up regretting. Damn.

Why don't you rather get a great pro-quality preamp (DAV or Summit have reasonable ones) and use software...

Is M-Box where the problem lies?

Was running a G4 12" powerbook. Not too bad in the DaveC test - about 15 tracks to stage 3, but nothing too fancy. But that damn M-Box - just unpredictable. One minute it works, next it doesn't -...

Logic vs PT stability/performance issues

30\" vs 23\" for ProTools

002R real world buffers...?

I'm running an MBox and really not happy (it was a stopgap). It's either trade in for a 002R (+Rosetta 200) or move over to Logic (and RME/Metric Halo/Apogee). I can't stump up the cash for TDM...
