Really. You have test data for this? Next person who says "I can hear it" gets shot. Twice. In the face.

 
I can hear it.


But I'd prefer you not to shoot all over my face.
 
 
 
 
 
Ooer, that didn't come out right
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Neither did that.......... oh dear, where's my razor blade

It has been well established that the mix engineer must moisturize his or her hands well before sitting at the board or the mix will come out scratchy and discombobulated (and you do NOT want a discombobulated mix! At least not by accident). It's even been shown that this happens when mixing entirely ITB [see "Einstein-Rosen Bridges and particulate matter in the mixing and production of moderne music" in Musical Science Decennial, vol 2a, pages 112-138, 1955...although there they are speaking more about punch card and paper loop VSTs and 2" tape, but the concepts translate].


As I don't always have the time to do proper moisturizing, I purchased some "Mix gLoves" from a reputable dealer online in the parking lot of the local music store (he had a WiFi enabled laptop) and only cost me $238.99 for two reusable pair. They recommended the softer disposable version, but I can't justify the monthly fee and two year contract. And they also were pushing pretty hard the body suit as well. Apparently, these keep the microgravitational emanations from your sloughing cells from your hand causing the electrons inside the computer or in the mixing board from de-coupling from the sound waves and thus make the eventual acoustic vibrations more pure. And they're 64 bit compatible: they had a "Tested and Verified" sticker on the package!


I can really hear the difference of my mixes wearing the Mix gLoves: they simply feel cleaner.

MacPro's sound much more betterer than those other things....

Funny you should say that.  I was hitting one with my drumstick today and it did indeed sound better than my PC.  More of a "twang" compared to the PC's "thwak"

I heard that the PC thwak sits better in the mix.

Well, strikingly, your offer is a good one! I did see on ebay the same pair for $340 (plus $200 shipping in a hermetically sealed envelope), so I certainly couldn't go less more than that plus maybe another 10%, my sense of financial matters being what they are: it wouldn't be fair.

I do need those iMixEars, though, because my Voldemort-like sound gatherers simply aren't cutting it. To overcome the problem I recreated this rig below for my monitoring room. It's a bit midrangey, but the mixes translate directly to the brain at high volume. Isn't it amazing how you can change a pioneer system using only a bit of duct tape and tin/ aluminum foil? Regardless, it would be nice to get the iMixEars and get my living room back and find some more appropriately sized monitors. 

I'm afraid that I take issue with the claims that Sonar is best for scrabble. I may be a fanboi but credit where credit is due. Sonar is very poor for scrabble. It scores 5.

Cubase & Protools on the other hand both easily double that to 10, logic and reaper both come in with an 8. King of the hill though is Albeton Live with a whopping 16.

There you go another X1 myth debunked.

Anyone have any ideas as to what DAW is best for 'Twister'?

 
You're not taking this at all seriously are you?
 
 

this thread has had the **** kikd outa It, time to move on !

I noticed in the store there's a Scrabbler's Guide to SONAR [Paperback] by Craig Anderton £19.95.

Cool Whip.

I wouldn't use Reaper for Twister. It's got a small footprint.

Wow, so you can play it with your clothes on too...

Phew!! I thought for a minute there I was going to have to jump ship, like some do because the PRVs the wrong colour or something.....

Come on Oscar, own up, that's CJ's mastering suite is it not?

Kiosk: I did, in fact, copy CJ's specs bolt for bolt. But I added the plaques ! Yep, that was all me: the one on the right fixes a node in the 12kHz range and looks good doing it. The little red suckers help the sound be less green than otherwise.

The OP offered a sugestion!![thanks]

The EMU 1616m comes with Sonar 6LE they look ok, but that is 8 years old is it not?

What kind of latency do you get with your EMU?

All the EMU's around here are flightless birds!

The male EMU sits on the nest and brings up the kids.

What next?

I need PCIe solutions for GA-Z68XP-UD3...........come on kids!

I hear the colours aren't very good though.
