    Linux!

    Ardour as far as an editor goes is fantastic. I actually have mixed a 8 song album in Ardour for a folk musician and it was great. Midi sequencing sucks and of course there are not as many plugins, you can get Windows VST plugins to work but not %100 reliably.

    Linux!

    Linux on all my web servers, I don't admin them so I think they are running Cent but I am not sure. I also have a Nuke workstation running Mint and I have Ardour on it. It rocks!

    Jim Jones teaching music in New York high school?

    I think more people like him should be teachers. Most teachers have never actually done what they are teaching in real life. Having someone in the classroom with real experience is invaluable. I would LOVE to take a class from Kayne.

    This is where you can VENT!

    Man I really think we should get a few things in here for Emcees. I know that Fade disagrees with me, but that is by far what I am always looking for. I don't collaborate much with other producers but always with emcees.

    Need an Emcee to be a guest on a soul song.

    ha ha, well you can either take the perspective of the person she is having an affair with or the abusive husband. Probably better to do the former. It is fairly slow bpm I think 76 I am still working on the track a bit. Email me if you want to do it, the lyrics really need to be stellar and I...

    Need an Emcee to be a guest on a soul song.

    I am working on a soul song with this crazy vocalist so I need an Emcee to write and spit about one verse like 16 bars. Its about an abusive husband and his wifes affair. Pretty gritty and raw stuff. This is going on an album, hit me up if anyone is interested. Thanks!

    Vocal Recording and sends

    ",but my point was - does it make sense to put stereo effects to a signal which is mono on its own." And I answered it with YES it does make sense, especially time based effects. Such as reverbs and delays. When you use a send most time based effect return stereo and to get proper depth with...

    Vocal Recording and sends

    "does it make sense to appy stereo effects on sends to the mono vocal track? From time to time I like to put a delay etc maybe some ping pong crossed stuff." YES reverb usually works best in stereo. My question other than MS why would you record vocals in stereo? I would also venture that you...

    Reason 3+ Live

    That is cool stuff, people don't know how powerful the CV and combinator is in Reason. You just hear complaints about not having plugins. But if you can't get the sounds you want out of Reason you just don't know what you are doing.

    Logic Help: converting WAVs to mp3

    I like compressor better because I can do a batch of wave files at a time, in fact I can even distribute the processing over my network, of course its not like MP3 encoding uses lots of CPU power, but it sure does help on the video side.

    Logic Help: converting WAVs to mp3

    Open the wav file in the Compressor software that came with Logic and you can select MP3 for podcasting. Should do the trick.
