Where was this tutorial 10 years ago when I was trying to dig for records?!

Yea, I’ve been shopping lately! I thought it was time to make a few upgrades around my home studio. Hey, it’s a good time to find some deals with the economy being down and people not buying as much as they used to. Just thought I’d share a link with my fellow musicians…

Use this link (below) and get 10% off of your total purchase. Enjoy.

For those of you who like to mix your music down away from the studio (ie: beach, park, car, roadtrips, etc.), check out these Novation Nocturn units. It let’s you control your plug-ins with a knob + fader rather than a mouse. This shit is so fresh…I picked one of these up last week!

In case you are wondering, yes, the Novation Nocturn works with Pro Tools. There are currently some compatibility issues with Waves plug-ins, but the people at Novation have told me that they’re working on an update.

Dope.

Novation ReMOTE 37 SL MIDI Controller

Sonoma Wireworks have released FourTrack, a application for Apple’s iPhone that lets you record and synchronise up to four tracks of audio, without any additional equipment.

A lot can be done with four tracks, and using the application’s GUI, users can start laying down tracks very simply. Just arm a track, slide the Record control, and away you go. In post production, the level of each track can be altered, as can its position in the stereo field, and a compressor/limiter can be used to “automatically fatten the sound of the output mix”. What’s more, your recordings, as 16-bit/44.1kHz data files, can be sent to a wi-fi enabled computer for further editing!

Back in the days…ok, maybe not that far back, stage DJs had to rely on “Instant Replay” machines to back up their artists/rappers during performances.  Now, it’s 100% computerized.  more…
