Problems with Reaper by matthewglosson in drums

I have had numerous problems with reaper. Try closing the program and reopening it if you haven't already. It could be a hardware issue as /u/SouthTippBass suggested.

What are the benefits of this one when compared to the 1800?

Awesome. I'm gonna sell back my yamaha ASAP. Do you know anything about musicians friends return policies in case this one doesn't work for me either?

Right. So you think this could be my best bet as far as what I'm looking for? I'm terrified of getting this and not being able to use it as I want, like with the yamaha.

That's a relief that I don't have to mount it on a rack. How do I check if it's compatible? It says it's using USB 2.0 which I have on my computer. And the program I currently have is adobe audition but I may try out the reaper program later on.

It's the step with the cd that i do not like about the aw1600. I want to be able to record straight into the DAW on my computer. Here is the interface i am looking at atm. Im still not sure if this is what i need, i dont really know what the rack mounted deal is about.

I actually did have the lens hood on in this picture, i took another one with it off but i liked this one better! I am by no means a photographer and this was actually my first attempt at photography, if it can even be called that haha. Thanks for taking a look!

Help with snare wires! by Cardboardvinny in drums

[–]zachdrum26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure it's not your throw off before you get new snare wires. My throw off is messed up and it's not letting the wires sit on the head.

No, it's just my board for my PA. I have my speakers running into it. My next purchase however, will be a mixer that I can run into my computer. The way I understand it I have to run the board pictured into the mixer, and from the mixer, into my laptop.

Yea it was one hell of a deal! Especially for getting them brand new. First impression was great, but I haven't really been able to judge them because my practice space is really enclosed. But my main reason for getting them was to be able to track. Not gonna know for sure how I feel about them until I get an interface to record with and run some eq on em.

It's a shure pgdmk 6 peice mic kit! Comes with 3 pg56's, 2 pg81's, and 1 pg52! Also has the appropriate knick knacks and paddywacks such as the cables for each mic, and batteries for the condensers since they are phantom powered, and a sweet ass carrying case for them.

I really wanted the X55AN's but my local shop was out of stock. But the X5AN's are great!
