Re: i found the perfect studio monitors!(Genelec)

For you people who know Genelecs, as I look to replace my (currently broken) Adam A7 monitors... My room sucks. It's 10Wx20Lx8H feet (1600 cu. ft.). My mixing desk is on the short wall, unfortunately. My ears about about 3.5 to 4 feet from the speaker. I plan to put at least some treatment in the r...

Re: i found the perfect studio monitors!(Genelec)

other than the bm5a, what other options are there for around a grand, if you don't want to make the jump to the genelec 8030 (which i think may sound toooo good anyway)?

Re: i found the perfect studio monitors!(Genelec)

What about Adam A7? Any last things he/we should know about? They are killer sounding for the price. But... The quality is a joke for the price. Call this anecdotal if you want, but... I ordered a pair in '07. Didn't work out of the box. No sound out of one, volume didn't work on the other. Sweetwa...

Re: How To Take the music out of a track and only keep the vocal

I remember having to explain to someone how mp3's and all that are Left and Right signals, and all the sounds you are hearing are mixed together.. THEY ARE NOT SEPARATE.. and he's like " what do you mean, theres vocals, guitar, bass, drums, I can hear them all right now".... "umm... ...

Re: Need a low priced Mic, advice welcome!

I've used the Studio Projects C1 for most everything in the past 5 years. Compares well with teh Neumann U87, at about 1/10th of the price. +1 Studio Projects C1 is an awesome mic. But yeah seriously when did it go up to $250. I still think it's worth that price - can't think of anything I'd rather...

Re: OT: Mac Pro Memory technical question and recommendation

Another question... Assuming at some point that Live will be released as a 64-bit app, how much memory would it be able to address then?

Thanks!

Re: OT: Mac Pro Memory technical question and recommendation

Am I correct about that being the fastest configuration for 16GB? The only one. http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/MacPro_MemoryDIMM_DIY.pdf Would this give me a major improvement re: number of tracks and instruments/effects per track? In other words, is it worth $560? Would 16GB be that much diff...

Re: OT: can I transfer a NI license?

I have a kontakt 1.0 license I want to sell to someone (that they can then upgrade). Can I do that? As long as you haven't used it as a qualifier for an upgrade. If you have, you need to include the upgrade in any transfer. How do I transfer it to them? Contact registration support and tell them yo...

OT: can I transfer a NI license?

I KNOW this is not the NI forum, and I am a member there, but you people are quicker, there are more of you, and you're more helpful. I have a kontakt 1.0 license I want to sell to someone (that they can then upgrade). Can I do that? How do I transfer it to them? Is there a fee for doing so? THANKS!...

Re: Anyone have a Native Inst $29 off code they don't Want?

Slightly OT... I have a Kontakt 1.0 license. Seems like for $300 I could upgrade that to Komplete 6. http://www.audiomidi.com/cust_search/komp_1209.aspx But I already have Komplete 5 (so if I ever get Komplete 6 I'll just be upgrading from Komplete 5). So, can I sell that kontakt 1.0 license to some...

Re: All you guys spend tons of money on awesome studio gear

The OP thinks this a contest. Did you skip the first post? Nope. I read it, and it seemed like he was making a funny comment/observation that many people here with gearlust and very pricey electronic gear have very inexpensive guitars. I don't think that means he worships his guitar or is criticizi...
