Im a sound engineer but I wanted something faster for my own workflow, especially when working with stems from hardware setups / SD recordings.

So I ended up building a simple app that:
takes stems or add a song and you will have automacally 4 stems on the mixing section

you can even upoload a video format and automacally extract the audio for processing,
auto mixes (EQ, comp, limiter, imaging)
lets you quickly tweak or add FX

exports ready WAV in minutes

You can also load a full track and split it into stems and work backwards.

(especially from people who hate complicated setups 😄

If you like to check it let me know

Hey everyone :)

I am in need of help deciding what audio interface to purchase for my new studio.

I have bought myself a pair of Yamaha HS8’s but also own a pair of Nautilus 805S’s which I’ve been using with an amp.

Separately, I own a eurorack case which I want to incorporate into my workflow.

I am into producing psytrance and ambient music in ableton and am looking for a high quality audio interface so I can make use of my HS8’s.

I’d also like to have the option to be able to occasionally record guitar into ableton when my friend comes over and brings his.

Ideally the dream flow here is being able to record eurorack into ableton, affect my eurorack modules with abletons effects, use my Yamaha HS8’s and occasionally record guitar into my ableton or affect the guitars sounds by playing it into Eurorack.

I am aware I’m asking multiple questions here as Eurorack is a seperate topic, but I did feel it is worth mentioning it in the post incase anyone has experience with that and what I’m asking as well.

What would be the best audio interface for such a thing? I’m not really that interested in recording audio, I probably would like a line in for mics but I really don’t need a ton of them like in the Scarlett i820 that was recommended to me recently.

The goal here is music production, mixing my tracks and finishing songs basically. Ideally low latency.

I don’t have a huge budget but anything around 700-900 dollars or below would be ideal.

Thanks in advance ❤️

Hey y’all, I haven’t done any kind of recording on a computer in like twenty years, last time I did I was just recording my cabinet into a daw called audacity. I’ve never owned a computer before either, it was the singers. But I got my first computer a MacBook Pro and a focusrite solo. I’ve seen some people recreate album tones using their amp and an ir. But like I said I’ve never had a computer before and am not quite a tech savvy person. But I would like to get any info anyone would like to share about a good easy to learn D.A.W. Amp sims for thrash/ metal music. Same thing with ir’s. I’ll probably try to find a subreddit for NAMM the free amp modeler to try and learn how to find captures and use them.

I keep going back and forth on my tracks.

At some point I don’t know if I should:

• keep tweaking the mix
• move to mastering
• or just call it done

Sometimes it sounds good in my setup but not elsewhere.
How do you decide a track is really finished ?

Anything somewhat similar to RX or Clarity VX that I can download for free?

... what are the pros and cons of using a multitrack over a DAW. My current DAW of choice is Ableton, benn using it since 2016 and am overall very happy with it. However the concept of a multitrack appeals to me, mainly because it removes the PC aspect.

My main question: is mixing/mastering possible? If so, this will most likely require some kind external EQ, compression, reverb, for the mastering. How doable is this?

If anyone has hands-on experience with this set-up I would appreciate your input.

TIA

^(there's one for sale by me for $850. I don't see much about these, but I heard they are part of API umbrella so they must not the terrible.. or the fact they are rarely being sold on Reverb.)

Curious to know why people say the e609 isn’t good for vocals, whereas the rest are seen as sort of a jack of all trades. Needs to be under £250 new btw, even that’s a stretch. Lmk your thoughts. For my tone is kinda Michael Jackson/the weeknd ish if that helps.

Hi,

i bought an audient id14 mkii interface (b-stock). Wanted to enjoy my weekend playing with it but the previous owner already registered the product. Unfortunately without a registered product there is no way to download the drivers or id software and the support does not work again before monday. If someone has the file for the id software (the file should be called iD v4.3.19.exe or something similar) for this interface i would really appreciate if you could send it to me. I can also prove that i have officially bought the interface from thomann.
Thanks!
