keyboard recommendations for DAW setup
May 10, 2010 Recording
I’m currently using an M-Audio Oxygen 61 and would like to upgrade in the semi-near future. Here’s my setup: Mac Pro (2008) Apogee Duet Logic Pro 9, VSL, Komplete M-Audio Oxygen 61 KRK RP5s I got the Oxygen 61 initially because I needed something cheap with a good number of MIDI knobs/faders. I don’t need quite as many of those as I have now, but would want at least 5 or 6 in addition to the pitch bend and mod wheel.

A question regarding mics in relation to the KM184
Ok, Here’s what I have. I am going to be recording primarily acoustic guitars and vocals in a home “studio” I run Logic Pro and am using an Apogee Duet as my interface. My two guitars that I play through are 3.5 and 4.5 Mcphersons.

Logic 9 at 48khz, pros and cons?
May 8, 2010 Recording
Hi guys, Right ive found an annoying bug with my Apogee Duet (that I suspect everyone else has even if they haven’t noticed yet unless new models fix it) At 44.1khz theres an unreasonable amount of hiss at 48khz its reduced dramatically (although I still wouldn’t call it silent) unfortunately this happens both in the headphone port and on the master outs and is picked up very easily by my Adam A7X’s. Im obviously really disappointed with this, and I didn’t envisage using 48khz on my projects, I dont believe it would improve anything and I dont really want to waste the extra CPU cycles to do everything at 48khz. But if this hiss annoys me as much as it is, I dont have much choice in reducing it (bar getting another interface) So if I switch to 48khz projects how much impact will this have on my CPU (in percentage?) Also my entire sample library (which is huge) is at 44.1khz

Impact Twin Converters?

Anyone did some A-B(-C) testing of the TC Impact twin versus RME FF or Apogee Duet? Opinions about pre’s and converters are more than welcome! Thanks..
