I have to record a voiceover remotely to my timeline from a professional speaker. He should be able to see my timeline video with timecode, hear (and maybe see) me, and be able record a local backup while I ju Can anyone recommend some software or cloud solution? Its ony a one time recording right now, so it shouldnt be too expensive. I read about Source Connect, which is 35 dollars a mont and 75 dollar for setup. And SessionLinkPro Recording, which is 26 dollars and doesnt seem to have a one time fee. There used to be VST Connect as well but se website is down. Any experience with those or any other recommendations would b…

I'm retiring and selling my Production recording and playback cart. For the last 10 years I have recorded directly to computer.....at last. It has proven to be extremely high quality, stable and very flexible. I used my highly modified Neve 5422 mixing console with Waves L2 hardware Ultramaximizers for digital recording for a number of years, initially to DAT for digital storage. The Waves Ultramaximizers A to D hardware converters and processors allowed me to exceed the best quality recordings I had made using modified Nagras, providing better dynamic range and fidelity and, of course, no print through or HF headroom distortion. After years of following the developm…

I'm looking for an Android app that will at the very least show waveform and will play polyphonic wav files (from Zaxcom or Sound Devices recorders). It would be nice if it could also edit, but not necessary. Has anyone found one?

If i were running say a very small Dante network with 1 or 2 Audinate ADP-AES3-AU-2X2 AVIO AES3 to Dante end devices configurable via “Dante Controller”: • Encoding (audio bit depth) :16,24,32 For a very small closed network if I needed to set a mic pre where i couldn’t get to it later and use say a lower mic signal and my device outputs 24-bit AES3 If my Dante network is set to 32 encoding would that allow makeup gain after Dante to be any less noisy since the Dante transmitter & receiver would both use 32-bit ? Even best-case scenario in a anechoic chamber (quieter than a studio…) also does anyone know if Sound…

Hi all. What are disadvantages of recording multitrack directly to a smartphone via an audio interface like RME Babyface instead of a dedicated recorders like Sound Devices or Zoom? I understand synchronization won't be an option as phones won't generate sync code. What about other aspects? Reliability etc? Has anyone done that as a sound mixer for film?

Anyone? Is it possible to take the SSD out of my current 2012 MBP (the computer is having some problems, nothing to do with the OS or the HDD) and simply R&R the HDD in another 2012 MBP, fire it up and have it be good to go? I'd keep my current MBP as a backup. I think I can buy a pretty mint replacement 2012 MBP for cheaper than I could have my current MBP repaired. Yes, I know I can swap the drives and then do a restore from Time Machine, but since I am going to open both machines up anyway to swap my 16GB of RAM out for the 8GB in the replacement, it would be easy to swap the drives at the same time. And yes, I know that the new computer …

Has anybody seen these demos of the NVidia RTX Voice AI noise reduction App? It seems to be a game changer for eliminating all types of background noise from a Microphone input. Sorry all you Mac fanatics, it currently needs an NVidia RTX video card and Windows 10 to work. It is in beta and free right now but check out these video demos.

My friend had an interesting gadget . http://www.mini-box.com/site/index.html This is DCDC converter for ATX. I recently renewed the sound cart and wanted a 1U recording PC, so it might be just right. 250W modes has room to install 2 SSDs, 16GRAM and i5 8600T on mini ITX. ===== if power supply for mac mini 2018 has 24pin internal connector. they makes DC Powering Mac mini 2018 probably.

Hello, I'm looking for a smartphone app (for Iphone) and would like to know wich app is the best. It's mainly to record a lavalier mic (VT506Mobile). I've found that iTalk can do up to 44.1 16bit, but I don't know if there are some differences in the capability of the apps? Or if the limiting factor is the smartphone? What are you thoughts? Thanks Patrick

I am not sure about this connector. It looks like it is not very reliable to work with live audio. My power adapter seems to cut-in-and-out with the connector on my MacBook. Does anyone have any experience, or a solution?

Hi All, Did a live to "tape" sports shoot gig the other day feeding mono mix audio from MixPre-10T into a PC laptop running "V-Mix" video studio software. Just wondering if anyone else has used V-Mix and has any experience about optimizing the audio workflow. We sent an analog mono mix out of the MixPre 10T via single TA3/XLR output into a basic Roland USB interface into laptop and on into V-Mix software. The results were clean but final levels in the laptop seemed a little low for my liking. Need to get more familiar with gain staging into and inside V-Mix, I think. I was impressed with V-Mix generally for it's capabilities and features - too b…

Hi fellow MixPre 10T users, Is anyone using their MixPre 10T as an interface into Logic, in full advanced mode? Have you found a fluid workflow? I'm finding the manual lacking when it comes to using the 10T in a multitrack music recording session with a typical DAW. I'm quite used to using the Apogee Maestro control software that controls my Duet, though only 2 channels. I gather that all the control of the MixPre 10T in USB interface mode is done strictly within the MixPre 10T machine itself? As someone already suggested, hopefully Sound Devices might come up with a software control panel. Just trying to wrap my head around the signa…

Hi guys! I bought a new MADI interface for my Boom Recorder rig and am getting an error. I have only used Boom Recorder with analog and ADAT devices before, so maybe you can tell me what I'm doing wrong? I am receiving a "We lost samples between the audio interface and the i/o cycle" error after 2 or 8 minutes of recording. Do you have any idea what might be causing this? Here is the configuration I am using: Boom Recorder 8.7.2, 65 Channels, 130 Files, 1 Folder RME Ufx+ via USB 3 15" Macbook Pro 2016, Osx 10.12.6, 2.6 Ghz i7, 16G Ram 1TB G Drive USB 3 Thanks for your help in advance!

Hi All, Wondering if anyone has done a music tracking session into a DAW using a Sound Devices MixPre 6/3? Thinking of retiring an Apogee Duet Firewire and wonder how the MixPres sound for music tracking. It's ability to do double duty is very attractive if the studio sound is in the Duet league or better. I've seen a video or two demo-ing recording music live-off-the-floor direct into the MixPre - more curious as to how it sounds as DAW interface as compared to others in it's price-point. Would love to hear a full layered session (clean instruments - not distorted guitar) with a wide variety of acoustic and virtual instruments and especially male and female l…

I'm looking for a software that runs on a mac and offers what is called "O-Ton-Modus" or "cue mode" on Samplitude. One splits a track into several clips and when hit the space bar it plays one clip, pauses at the beginning of the next clip until one hits space again. And so on. Its just what I want for prerecorded phone conversations. I don't wanna use those cartridge-type software. Just not flexible enough. I need to rearrange the clips on the fly. Any ideas?

I have an aging Mackie Onyx 1620 in my cart, with a FW card, which connects to a MacBook Pro. It has served me well for a few years, but I'm having issues with a few mute and solo buttons. I've taken it in for service, but the issues persist. Chances are, it would cost close to what it's worth now ($450) to have those buttons repaired/replaced, so I'm looking for a board to replace it. I need 8-12 input channels, at least two submixes or aux outputs and talkback, as well as FW or USB connectivity for Boom Recorder. I've looked at and considered the following mixers: Presonus StudioLive 16.4.2 AI Allen & Heath QU-16 Yamaha LS9-16 (not sure it has ta…

I recently purchased the Mackie 1620i. I plug it into my Mac Mini and when I plug in a mic I can hear a doubling effect on any input I use. How do I stop this. I had not have this happen using my alesis mixer. It's like my audio is looping through the mixer. Also I I push the solo buttons the effect is no longer heard. What do I need to do to correct this issue?
