Those who have ears to hear let them hear In this comment section there is probably one lost sheep that needs to be found there is this whole in your heart you tried many times and many things and many ways to fill it but you couldn’t and it kept getting bigger you would be around multiple people and still feel lonely but let me tell you JESUS is the one who can fill that whole in your heart JESUS is that missing piece you’ve been looking for that peace that’s never ending that true love and joy and happiness it’s in JESUS not if this world but if the kingdom of heaven and if you want to accept him in your heart all you have to do is believe in the gospel A-admit that you’re a sinner and that you need forgiveness, B-Believe that JESUS CHRIST died for your sins and rose again, and C-Confess your faith in JESUS CHRIST and his lordship over your life and you will be saved and this amazing feeling is not a drug it won’t last a couple hours but forever eternally bc it is not of this world but of GOD who sits on the throne of heaven forever and ever HALLELUJAH ✝️

Question; if there is latency in the mics and you need to mute, why don't you get the same latency? If you do then how can you record song with drums and bass etc....? Thanks.

I'm mentally putting together my home mini studio and I find that the more I learn what I need, the more questions I have. Fortunately I ran into your channel. You are answering my questions clearly and plainly. Thank you for clarifying what in the beginning for me was mystifying smoke.

@tunemxr480 3 жыл бұрын

To reduce latency for overdubs when recording through plug-ins, lower the buffer size in your DAW as low as possible (usually 64 samples.) While this setting is not always possible, depending on your PC/Mac CPU capability, 128 to 256 samples is almost always acceptable with a track or two with virtually any modern computer. Overdubbing is usually quite acceptable in the 5-10ms range a small buffer size offers. And always turn phantom power off and wait a few seconds to discharge the 12-48volts of current BEFORE unplugging a condenser mic to avoid a “pop” that could destroy a driver!

I watched a number of these types of videos and what makes you the best is you aren't rushing nor taking too long to stress a point but most importantly you assume that the people watching already understand the lingo like DAWS. I watched a video before yours and they kept saying DAWS and never took the time to explain what it meant. But you do did and thats one of the many reasons why you're the best!

They even specified the differences whether you were a windows machine or an Apple machine. You aren't plugging this into your toaster mate.
