Some tentative suggestions: On most burning software there's an option to set the duration of the gap between tracks - make sure this is set to 0. Failing that.... If you have Wavelab, load the mix into an Audio Montage and set the track markers to wherever you want them then just burn to disc. If I...

Thnx for the link.

I've also come across http://www.allangordon.co.uk/Drivers/Co ... -Units.htm who seems to be a bit cheaper for some drivers. Still can't find those NHT's tho.

DIY Subs

Lately I’ve been playing with the idea of building my own sub. I’ve been on http://www.diysubwoofers.org which seems to have all the info I need and I know a couple of carpenters who are willing to lend me some tools and help out a bit. Most of the projects on the net seem to use NHT 1259 or Adire A...

I know a fair bit of music theory. Useful to know but by no means essential. Personally I think the more you can find out about music & production the better. Just don't look at music theory as the "rules". Think of it as a description of how sounds are related to each other (to be use...

Here are a few classic drum machine samples I came across. Stanard stuff but a few unusual bits and pieces as well. Not the best quality but usable.

I wouldn't worry about it too much. Just play some good tunes. A lot of techno is quite dubby (Basic Channel, Echocord, etc..spring to mind) and sub-bass driven (audio.nl stuff consists of almost nothing else but sub). Dubstep is not quite as alien to a techno crowd as you may think. Anti War Dub is...

The 6-7 min "limit" is not really a limit at all. There is an inverse relationship between the length of a tune and how loud the record is. The longer the tune the quiter the record. 6-7 minuted is considered optimum for a loud press. I had the thankless task of editing some d&b tunes ...

Up until now I've been using my stereo speakers for monitoring. I think to take it to the next level I need to get myself some decent monitors. Don't know what to go for (active/passive etc...) What are people out there using? Any recomends?

Midi-fication

Hi all, Wonder if anyone can help me out. I want to connect a midi keyboard to my laptop. Problem is my USB ports don't work and there's no joystick or serial port. I'm using the PCMCIA slot for my soundcard (Echo io) so its not practical to use it to replace the USB. I know the ideal solution is to...
