btw while we're on the topic I need a usb2 audio i/o to stop my fucking monitors from buzzing, or should I just get a preamp

El Tomboto, Wednesday, 22 August 2007 14:48 (eighteen years ago)

isn't the latency on usb shit?

Catsupppppppppppppp dude 茄蕃, Wednesday, 22 August 2007 14:56 (eighteen years ago)

yeah apparently so. preamp it is but WHY IS ONLY THERE HUEG AUDIOPHILE SHIT. I JUST NEED GROUNDED INTERFACE BETWEEN COMPUTER OUTPUT AND POWERED MONITORS

El Tomboto, Wednesday, 22 August 2007 15:14 (eighteen years ago)

grounding :(

Catsupppppppppppppp dude 茄蕃, Wednesday, 22 August 2007 15:18 (eighteen years ago)

hate to say it but a ground lift is your pal

sexyDancer, Wednesday, 22 August 2007 15:19 (eighteen years ago)

does anyone know of a place that could repair my m-audio interface? it's no longer under warranty and i don't want to spend $250 on a new one...

bell_labs, Wednesday, 22 August 2007 15:37 (eighteen years ago)

what's wrong with it? is it the jacks and buttons or is it hosed by poltergeist

El Tomboto, Wednesday, 22 August 2007 15:38 (eighteen years ago)

my cat knocked it over and it sounds like there are parts loose inside.

bell_labs, Wednesday, 22 August 2007 15:38 (eighteen years ago)

though it may just be the audio out jack which looks like it got twisted a bit.

bell_labs, Wednesday, 22 August 2007 15:39 (eighteen years ago)

my midi interface has parts lose inside but it works

Catsupppppppppppppp dude 茄蕃, Wednesday, 22 August 2007 16:41 (eighteen years ago)

for the orig thread question i am fully converted to Wave Editor

http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/18865

it's got the concept of "layers", which is brilliant, and fully customizable keyboard shortcuts

although i find that Audacity is a little faster if you're dealing with a big file (more than 30 min.)

PEAK is Teh Way. And for making stuff Live 7. And for mixing : Logic.

And on the other end of the spectrum: free, open source, massive and kitchen-sink-inclusive, and really kind of frightening:

A bit off-topic....

I use a program called Max to batch edit audio files, take a bunch of mp3s, aiffs, mp4s etc, and they all come out mp3s with the same rate and no VBR. I need this for when I do internet radio stuff.

I also have a program called iVolume which overrides iTunes soundcheck and does a better job of adjusting the relative volumes in iTunes, which is great for playlists that are mixes. However it only effects iTunes, so you have to burn a CD then re-import to actually process the files.

What I'd like is a a program where you drag say, 10 mp3s into a window and it checks the relative volumes and adjusts accordingly. Is there anything like this?
