I'd be very interested to know which DAW takes 2 channel (track) MP3 files and breaks them down into their pre-mixed multitrack state. Can you tell me what that one is called? Harry Potter's Super Magic DAW, perhaps? ; ]

That's okay. That's my definition too, but if I had a dollar for every time someone said to me, "I wrote this song..." When they have nothing on paper, I'd have more dollars than... Well, I'd have at least another fifty bucks.

You could do all of this with the apogee jam, irig, or riffport if all you need is one input at a time, and as long as you're not using a condenser microphone (no phantom power). All you need are a few jack adapters to convert 1/4 inch to 1/8 inch and balanced to unbalanced – just a few bucks at...

It's a skill you will develop as you learn, and it is still ultimately the most effective way to pick out the parts you want to examine. Back in the Stone Age, my music tutor used to drill me by having me listen to a song in several passes, trying to only "listen" to a different part each time...

First, the apogee – excellent little device. What I love most about it is the reduction in hiss and 60 cycle hum when compared to any of the headphone jack interfaces, which is only an issue if you play with distortion, but the difference is HUGE. The only drawback is that it uses the same port...

Thank you. This is a great community you've got going on in here. I look forward to the discussions.

This is the first time a forum administration has asked me to introduce myself, but hey... When in Rome... I am here because I found this forum in a search engine, looking for performance comparisons of iPad versions among musicians, specifically. I am a 20 year professional session...

What's your experience? Jumping on the back of this train... I currently own an iPad 2 with the latest iOS, and definitely have some problems doing all I want to do without overtaxing it. I'm thinking about switching to an iPad 3 or 4. I'd like to hear from musicians who have gone from a 2...
