haha. i didnt really have no choice tho coz it was i could afford really. plus it`ll be a long while before i outgrow it given im a complete noob. plus i have no room for anything bigger, this fits on my comp desk nicely.plus i can sell it for what i paid for it if i ever upgrade. plus it was cheap. plus im defending my purchase.
hey but on a different note, i tried rewirin reason & audition and the shitty asio drivers wont work in more than one app at a time so its back to stocksoundcard if i need to use rewire, which im not sure if i do.
lol, man...i'm gettin the oxygen pretty soon too..
i like that one... for portability.
we be using this one right at my house..
lol just got into the beat makin

1. Oxygen 8 is pretty nice for what it is. I have one. I use it mostly for traveling.Quote:

3. When rewiring, you're only using the master program's audio drivers. You think studios have to use their shitty built in soundcard instead of their expensive studio equipment when rewiring? lol come on.
lol, actually thats where your wrong smartass, the asio drivers for my interface (lexicon lambda) are shitty. usually when opening two programs say youtube at the same time as audition you just cant do it. this particaular asio only works in 1 program at a time (i dunno if thats the case with all asio drivers?)Quote:

That's how all ASIO drivers work lmao. That's why a lot of recording programs have an option like "release driver when program is inactive."
You probably don't know how to rewire. If you're successfully rewiring with the stock soundcard drivers and not the ASIO drivers then update your drivers or use ASIO4ALL. But The Lexicon Lambda is definitely Rewire compatible.
what is the point of rewire?
It allows you to stream the audio channels from one program into another and sync the sessions so they play together. Reason has the biggest "reason" for doing this, which is probably why they invented the technology. Reason has no audio input or plugin support. It's pretty much useless for mixing. So rewiring the channels from Reason into a program like Pro Tools, Cubase, Logic, or Audition allows you to record instruments and vocals, edit, and mix the entire song while still preserving the Reason session so that can still be edited as well.
Basically, it allows you to use several programs at the same time to create one song.
yeah i know about the release driver option, but it wont do it with this driver, it never has done, i have to quit 1 prog completely before it will release.Quote:

btw is it possible to edit the midi in audition?, i mean theres no waveforms (i undersand its not sound) but could you still edit the midi data somehow?
word i'mma have to look into that..Quote:
