Hi, I've begun working alot more with LADSPA plugins and have found it very easy to achieve satisfying results. www.iaxs.net/~rparker/legaladvice.ogg Despite the relative ease with which my partners Bill, Dana and I were able to achieve our final product, legaladvice.ogg, the real acid test is whether or not anyone thinks the final product is effective. Give it a listen and let me know what you think. A JK Audio RemoteMix3, phone dialer with audio i/o, is used to build a mix minus. I imagine you can google for that. We run a Neumann M 147 tube mic into an Avalon Vt 737sp which inserts into a channel on the Tascam DM-24. We send that channel direct (it's not assigned to the DM-24 stereo buss) to Ardour where Barry's Satan Maximizer and the Steve Harris AM-Pitchshift are inserted pre-fader. The effected return from Ardour routes back to the RemoteMix3 via an Aux bus (DAC/analog send) from a new DM-24 channel that is not assigned to stereo buss. That pitchshifted/maximized Aux send replaces my telephone and is mixed into a conversation with another caller in the RemoteMix3. The RemoteMix3 analog output routes to the DM-24 in a channel that is assigned to the stereo bus where we finally get to monitor it. A wireless lav would have enabled us to wonder around the studio while monitoring phone conversations on the Alesis M1 Active monitors. Definitely a bonus for the multitasking professional that doesn't want to be restricted to a single task because of some stupid wire. ron __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
