You don't need a "strip silence" function necessarily, you could do it with a simple noise gate. But I *hate* noise gates. Much better to get a nice clean signal in the first place.

I should try a different click track sound - that bleep is supposed to cut through anything and my god, it does.
But really, I should get some decent headphones because the ones I've got are really falling to pieces and only do stereo when they feel like it. Also they pick up random crackle and hiss from all over the place, it's like big bang radiation in my earphones, ugh.

B-b-but a lot of old compressors just sound really cool even when they aren't compressing!

martin OTM on old compressors, but god do I hate the new ones, noise gates as well.

any new recommendations for affordable headphones for home recording? mine appear to have crapped out.
no one makes headphones with a 1/4-inch plug anymore do they? i have an adapter i've been using with my four-track but it seems like just another part of the chain that can break

NA what's your budget? I bought these sennheisers the other week, really like em. have a screw-on 1/4" plug adapter - feels like a sturdier option than the ones that just snap over the 1/8" plug.

those look pretty good. something in that range is probably what i'll be working with. i've had good luck with sennheisers in the past.
