i am recording videos of me playing acoustic songs using a webcam and windows movie maker. i'm trying to avoid using my webcam mic, and instead i'm trying to use an sm57 through my alesis multimix interface to record audio. problem: the multimix has 8 tracks. the first two tracks are treated as the ...

sorry shouldve poked around more before making a thread

i guess switching from wdm to asio did the trick. don't know 100% what that means but it seems to work so i'm good. :]

i'm using an alesis multimix8 firewire with a brand new desktop (quadcore 2.9ghz, 4gb ram) and cakewalk sonar 8. i am getting a crackling noise on playback. i guess this noise has something to do with the buffer settings.... so i set the buffer all the way to the slowest (347.8 msec) and noticed an ...

i updated the driver, my firmware was always the most recent, and everything's plugged in to power outlets. still not recognizing

sorry i wasn't clear. i don't want to just leave it on all the time because it gets really hot and i'd have to go through audio midi setup every time i wanna switch to the macbook's own audio drivers. i'd like to just be able to turn it off... and then later turn it on and have it recognized automat...

im using an alesis multimix8 firewire with a macbook (tiger). it really annoys me that i have to restart my computer everytime i plug it in. is there any way i can force the computer to check for new firewire devices or something like that?

thanks

just out of curiosity... are there plans to return to fights with more than one title any time soon?

i miss them.

Hey all. I'm using an Alesis Multimix 8 Firewire with a Macbook (Tiger, 2 GB RAM) and Cubase LE. I have a huge latency problem. I've tried changing the buffer size but nothing seems to improve. Any tried and true tricks (either w/ Cubase or something specific to the Mac OS X Audio Midi Setup app) th...

yeah it definitely would be great to have a link back to songfight.org again

i'm using cubase LE and i'm trying to import a .wav file (drum track from FL Studio) into my project. it all seems to work fine, and i can see the track and everything, but when i play it, i don't hear anything (and i don't see a signal on the mixer either). any idea why this might be happening? tha...

thanks a lot man yeah i guess i assumed that the 404's output were s/pdif just cuz it looked vaguely similar. but besides that mistake, i think i figured out how everything works (though i wouldn't bet on it). i guess unless someone has precautions about the multimix, or a better alternative, it loo...

i guess i might as well keep the ol' questions comin:

i just found out about the Alesis Multimix Firewire... and uhh they look amazing. is there any downside to them when compared to the firebox, etc. (besides lacking midi, being a bit more expensive, etc.)?

okay so i think at this point im deciding between the alesis io and the firebox. mostly because the edirol has no software, and the mbox is more expensive but is usb and has no midi. the one thing im confused about is that the Alesis has an s/pdif input and output, while the firebox uses a cable tha...

i know this thread has been made before but i figure we'd start fresh i'm trying to find a decent upgrade from the maudio ozone i've been using as an interface. i'm looking at Alesis io14 Edirol FA-66 Mbox Mini Presonus Firebox I guess that's about the price range/features I'm looking for. My favori...

1. plug keyboard's midi out into audio interface
2. plug audio interface's usb out to computer
3. open garage band, etc.
4. use keyboard as midi controller for softsynths


is the above possible?

wow this really sucks. i just saw this post last night and was gonna buy it. but decided to sleep on it. then i go back tonight and it's back up to 100 bucks.

anybody have experience with busking (aka street performing)? tips, tricks? i'm in san francisco, so i'm thinking i either wanna go to the haight ashbury or else the subway downtown. how long do you reckon a good set would be? if you've done it before, how much have you made?

i'm a college student, and for once that actually has an advantage: my school's computer store is selling macbooks for $699 with the purchase of apple care (it's normally $1049 in my school's store). i really wanna get this deal, not only because it's a great price, but because my current dell lapto...

i don't have any pod drivers installed, because i run it through the ozone

i guess if nobody has experience with this type of pod problem, i'll give em a call

omg ok a new page to the saga i figured out that there might be problems with the driver, so i reinstalled them. this works! and there's no noise in recording, either. i then plugged in the power adapter just to make sure that that was the cause of the problem. unfortunately, it didn't work. yep, wh...

the thing that's strange is that i can still use my external HD through the non-busted ports... but the computer refuses to recognize the ozone through those same ports. i guess this suggests that the problem is probably with the ozone?? man, i have no idea. when i get back to school i guess i'll tr...

first: this setup used to work fine before. the deal with the power adapter was a problem with the laptop, not with the pod or ozone. the problem is that the plug doesn't stay plugged in unless i fiddle with it and hold in it a certain position. also, i meant then when i monitored the ozone without ...
