I have a 7800GS with an extra large heatsink and the fan unplugged and I get some pretty decent FPS. Jesus Christ that's retarded. You don't even have a CPU fan?

RivensBitch posted:I actually can't wait until higher sample rates catch on in the end medium format. Can an iPod actually play back formats above 48khz? We're at the point now with digital distribution where there's really no point in sticking to the 44.1khz standard, bandwidth is cheap as is storage.

wixard posted:I was going to guess transcribers. They're the only time I've ever had to deal with cassettes because they have their setup with the foot pedals and all while they type and they see no reason to change it. Unfortunately they do still sell them. Even the small law firm where I work has switched to digital dictation/transcription. They need to get with the times.

Phantom power doesn't really affect dynamic mics. It's ribbon mics you need to keep separate from phantom power.

Mudflap McDirt posted:How does one add roominess anyway? When I record drums, you can tell they're in a room, but when I record guitars, they sound like they're DI (in comparison). What's the best way to add air to the guitar sound? usually a reverb plugin

Mudflap McDirt posted:well that's simple. Or you can record with the mic farther back from the grille of the guitar amp. I personally like to record in stereo with the mics on the opposite sides of the room and then crank the guitar amp to 11. Phasing? What's that? nimper fucked around with this message at 14:38 on Jun 11, 2009 |

As long as we're on the subject of interfaces, what's everyone's opinion on the Presonus Firestudio Project? I'm looking to sell my current gear and get one of those so I can record on my Macbook.

the wizards beard posted:Can anyone recommend a micing set up for drums with a low number of mics? I want to record some demo tracks and we will only have access to a Tascam digital 4-track or an Emu 1616m, so only 4 channels. We have access to an SM57, an SM58, an Audix dynamic mic (I think an OM series, will check) and various 57 and 58 clones. I realise this is pretty inflexible but right now we can live with rough demo recordings. Two matched overheads and close mics on the snare and kick should give you a good sound with only 4 inputs. http://www.kimcheerecords.com/articles/drums/ has a good writeup on positioning.

burritonegro posted:Mine was a 32bit installer on 64bit Windows so go figure. 64bit Windows installs 32bit programs in a separate location from 64bit programs, so it could be that the plugins were looking for their settings in the wrong place.

The rhythm guitar is way too prominent. Turn it down and go with a little more subtle panning.

Physical posted:I think this might be the right spot to ask this, although the hardware forum might be another stop, but its related to a mixing console with a firewire port. And I have a laptop that does not have a firewire port and no PCMCIA but it does have USB 3.0 and Ethernet. You're better off replacing either the mixing console or the laptop, because there's no easy way to get either of them to talk to each other.

If you were able to develop a firewire->USB data translation device, you'd be a rich man, assuming you are also able to overcome the product licensing nightmare that you'd be facing.

SevenStringGuru posted:I have a very old upright piano that I would like to record. I was recommended by the music store to find a mic that I could place on the inside of the piano where the mallets hit. I only have a SM57; should i get sm58? The room I am recording in is about 25'x35' with 12' ceilings. Maybe it would be better to put one mic in the room to capture the room reverb? Any suggestions Try it with the mic slightly behind the piano (maybe a foot or two) pointed at the the center of the back plate. You don't want to go too far out in the room unless you want the more airy sound.

Stealth Tiger posted:Is there a good 1/4" -> USB cord out there? I just want to record a guitar on my laptop. I bought one from Sam Ash the other day and returned it because of latency and massive amounts of white noise. Googling isn't really showing me anything with stellar reviews. I don't want to spend the money on an I/O when I only plan on using one slot. Any ideas? The cheap cable you bought is essentially doing the same thing as an I/O box, just really terribly.

Paperhouse posted:What's a good way to A/B mixes of the same track? I'm thinking either a specific program or just a good way to do it otherwise. At the moment I'm playing two tracks in separate VLC instances and muting one then the other, but it's not really possible to get them playing at exactly the same time and to mute one and unmute the other at the same time Load the mixdowns in a separate instance of whatever mixing program you're using?
