Dec 28, 2002 08:07 pm Yea everything is kool dB. I'm off for a while so I'm just chillin. Someone hooked me up with a Delta 1010LT. Its a beast...just geting used to it though. I've been using it mostly to dump stuff from my korg D16 into sound forge. next step is to get it to multi track with Vegas Pro.
Hows your projects going?
Gus
Dec 29, 2002 06:43 am Pretty good, thanks, Noize and I are about half done with our film score, I have all the pieces to get my studio ready to mix 5.1, just haven't hooked them up yet. I can't wait for that, it's gonna rock.
Delta 1010LT, eh? Very cool, ya oughta have a lot of fun with that dude...tho a beast, it is a great card!
Dec 30, 2002 01:59 pm Happy holiday's Gus. And gald to hear about the 1010LT, hope it's workin good. Ya gotta love the bigger interface.
Jan 01, 2003 05:41 am Wow...5.1 What hardware and software are you running for that? That's really great...did you two shoot the Flim also?
Happy New Year!

Jan 01, 2003 07:38 am No, I friend of mine shot it. and my 5.1 sound is done with my Audiophile 2496, to reference it I got a less-than-optimal setup until this surround makes me some money. It's a nice Sony Surround reciever with a decent set of speakers. Nothing fancy, but it does take the S/PDIF signal from my Audiophile and splits it into 6 signal paths and amplifies it.
Not my dream setup, but it does the job...
Jan 01, 2003 11:26 am Well like you said it does the job. I wasn't even aware it could be done like that...so you just taught me something. I'm sick and tired of the false notion that you can only do 5.1 in a full blown pro tools environment. What software are you using make your music 5.1?
I'm very interested in this as video is my main interest. Once this film hits the market place please let me know, I'd like to hear your work.
Peace
Jan 01, 2003 12:10 pm I am gonna link to a website that is going to stream the film. It was an independent project for a friend of mine to try his hand at directing and producing, so it's not like it will be in theatres and such, and actually several places he shot at actually told him very directly NOT to shoot there, but they snuck in and did anyway :-)
The soundtrack is going to be much better than the movie itself, as it was an experimental thing, but the same guy is going to be doing two more in 2003 so I am guessing he will come to me for the soundtrack for those as well because so far he is very, very happy with what Noize and I have done.
As far as the software we are multitrackingit in Noize's Cakewalk studio, mixdown will take place in the "dB Masters Facility" using Nuendo. Though I am seriously considering moving to Acid now and dumping Nuendo and Vegas at their next upgrades, I am just doing some research.
Since Acid now does everything Vegas does, PLUS supports VST, ASIO, 5.1 and MIDI, plus of course the cool looping functions and features Acid has always been known for....then I wouldn't have to bounce between the Vegas and Nuendo, I could do it all in one. Plus Acid is way cheaper...which doesn't compute, I am trying to figure out why Acid is so much cheaper, and so far I can't find it...
I need some help from collapse on this, since he is the resident Acid expert...
And I agree, I am sick of all the ProTools this and ProTools that...it ain't all that! Unlike a few year ago, the home digital studio does have a choice...and a lot of them!
Jan 01, 2003 03:49 pm Agreed on the Pro-Tool's bashing. But then again most know how I feel on that subject. I just read a small article somewhere that the guy was a die hard PT user for year's and finally tossed it all out for Sonar XL, WaveLab, and Vegas. And he was very pleased with his new rig. Said thing's about not wanting to keep dumping his hard earned money into constant maintainance and upgrade's at extremely high price's.
Jan 01, 2003 05:30 pm Very interesting as I'm concentrating on learning Vegas Video now. I'm happy so far though I have only used it for video editing. I'm using a Sony camera and dumping it into Vegas via fire wire. I tweak the audio in sound forge and import it back into Vegas. Is Nuendo any good, as I don't really kwon anything about it? What will you master with...Nuendo or Acid and why?
Jan 01, 2003 05:41 pm OOOOO Gus. You know we are both dedicated to WaveLab for mastering, Although SoundForge is not a bad place to master either. They are both top notch for wave editing, and the processing in both is exceptional. Although WaveLab seems to process just a bit faster then SoundForge when you have multiple DSP's applied at once. But I am waiting to put WaveLab back in untill I switch to Win XP and have been stuck using SF and am starting to kinda like it again, almost as much as WaveLab.
Jan 01, 2003 07:10 pm Yea...i forgot that you two are WaveLab junkies,hehehehehee. I think that I'll look for a demo of both Nuendo and Acid this week and check them out. I hope they work well with XP.
Jan 01, 2003 07:30 pm Ya, I believe the new demo's are set to go in XP. So ya shouldn't have any trouble.
