I going to guess they were discontinued due to lack of sales.

OK, I missed that post. The 3570 is a good choice and has the upgraded on-board graphics. It's on my list as well.

I certainly could be wrong because it's hard to find data on your cpu choice, but I believe that particular i5 is 1156 socket and the Asus Z77 mobo is 1155.

Also, you might want to be aware that...

Did you plug it in? Is it turned on?

Yes, I've use that technique on pianos with SDC ... or a modified version of it.

If you have a bar, research ORFT ... for fun. Someone in the French Gov't came to the conclusion these dimensions...

Yeah, okay. I think you are misunderstanding this "rule" that I never heard referred to by a name before today. The key is "at least twice the distance", which really means the further the...

What is a 3 to 1 rule, and who came up with it?

Really? And this is how you enjoy your work? It sounds to me like you hate your job.

It's not unusual to work with other inexperienced people when you are just starting out, but as you grow,...

You could also put a blanket over your head when recording. Been doing that for years.

I'm just passing along my personal experience. I'm sure could have spent a lot more money, but after basic treatment of a project studio, you can continue throwing money in with minimal additional...

Pretty much what Bill said, although I would recommend setting up the long way, and I think you will find that is the popular thought. I had a small room a while bank and tried the short way for...

Avoiding parallel walls was a popular but short-lived style of acoustical room design several years ago because it helps eliminate "standing waves". But it makes nodes and reflections less...

My advice is to finish it as if you were using it for some other household purpose, and then add temporary/portable acoustical treatments as needed, when needed. You can easily hang "clouds" to...

I just work with a guitar player. There are thousands of them everywhere. Some of them can actually play.

That's what she said.

Didn't know that. Thanks. I'll be aware.

Soundguy

Yes, but also checked or unchecked "do not embed video", or whatever that is called.

Most VO guys I have worked with just keep reading when they make a mistake ...perhaps back up a few words ... and edit for cadence and clean up later. There really is not much effort to try and...

I don't think I've ever known anyone to use the click option instead of the music tracks when dropping into the body of a song ... in any DAW ... although they may have the click on during playback. ...

Not sure what you are trying to say here. You can listen to bars of music on any DAW. There is no count off button in SAW because there is no metronome.

What's wrong with a pre-roll/post roll...

When elimination of paper manuals became the norm for audio software and such, I was a bit annoyed. Then I realized I can just have the manual open on another computer. It's when you are trying to...

Many years ago I purchased Nuendo because it supported OMF files without the need for a third party conversion utility. And it seemed to always work, as infrequently that I needed OMF. Since then...

huh?

Even in good working order, an 1/8" plug is the least reliable audio connection you could use. I would start by never using one. It is not a pro audio connector, but an ear bud output for your...
