I'm going to make a few general comments here.
A friend of mine is a professional studio designer, and I found myself helping moderate one of the Facebook groups he runs. I have learned a few...
Those turn out to be very ticklish to apply correctly, and are definitely NOT recommended as DIY projects.
Non-parallel walls can have acoustical advantages, such as avoiding flutter echoes. However, the do NOT eliminate room modes (resonances), although they do make the mode frequencies more difficult...
While many excellent classical recordings have been made that way, not all classical producers/engineers work in that fashion. It is fairly common to have some "highlight" mics for some instruments,...
There is a procedure for moving the "desktop" folder and the various "libraries" folders to a non-boot partition, and that is now my normal practice. However, with the installation of whatever new...
I bought Blue Cat Patchwork. It definitely works to bridge VST3 plugins into SS so that SS sees a VST2. My one disappointment with it is that it cannot bridge between 32 bit and 64 bit. The manual...
Since I have the 32 bit versions of both SAW and SAC, I did a routing test with those for feeding mutiple output pairs from a single master out of SS, and yes, it definitely works. I may yet go for...
My larger remote recording rig, for which the interface rack uses a Focusrite Scarlett 18i8 with a Presonus Digimax FS for a total of 12 mic/line inputs and 3 stereo output pairs, connects to my...
I have found this thread an interesting read, and also found much to agree with. When it come to whether or not to "allow" backing tracks, I think the question to be answered, on a case by case...
Out of curiosity, were the drum tracks recorded by you? I have learned to do certain things in tracking to reduce leakage between kick and snare. One helpful trick is to take a heavy blanket, like...
I was afraid of that.
I have one test session where I have Output track 1 feeding output tracks 2, 3, and 4. With this setup, I cannot then create submixes to feed output track 1. This is a...
Yes, but that is another expensive addon for me to upgrade fro 32 bit to 64 bit. What originally drove this idea was the need to get around having to use a VST3 plugin for Sessionwire, because the...
Yes, but can you feed submixes to other submixes? For example, a drum submix feeding a "2mix" submix, with the 2mix feeding other output tracks that are assigned to their own numbered device...
I may be late to this party, but if I have understood the problem correctly I may have a suggestion for you.
I am assuming that during the narration the music level is "pulled under" so as not to...
I finally took the time to do some proper testing. I made some interesting discoveries along the way.
The design goal was to feed my main mix to three sets of hardware outputs:
One for control...
You mean using the flux loop to inject pink noise, right? And yes, there are other test signals.
Not all possible test signals will cause the resonances in a system to "pop out" where you can...
As a recovering studio tech, I may just have something for you.
There is a thing we sometimes use to troubleshoot tape recorders called a "flux loop". We use it to test playback heads and...
I did some preliminary tests, but got distracted and don't remember the exact results. I'll try this again in the next day or so and report back.
I have both 32 and 64 bit SS, but only 32 bit SAC. Can I link 32 bit SAC to 64 bit SS?
I thought I wasn't allowed to do that, particularly with nested submixes.
Well, here is where I run into a problem. I use submixes in sessions, such as drums, vocals, etc. and then assign these back to bus 1 for the master. I want to be able to feed the exact same...
For reasons including, but not limited to, doing live collaborative session work over the Internet, I have some odd signal routing needs in my studio, and I need to integrate SawStudio into this...
I now sometimes do remote sessions live from my studio. I want to be able to use SawStudio in these, but am having difficulty.
I have started getting into live real time collaboration with a...
I have a need to be able to run VST3 plugins in SawStudio. If possible, I need this for both 32 and 64 bit versions. I was just told that Steinberg no longer supports the VST2 API, does not allow...
The installation of SawStudio64 was indeed seamless. As for operation being the same, yes, although Bob did elect to use a different "shade" for the 64 bit version, which I actually find convenient...
