What is the best way to record a podcast when the host lives far away.

I want to produce a podcast but the host/star lives 3000 miles away. He will be answering questions from people by phone. Any suggestions as to how to record it from my own desktop and control the content?

Obviously you will need a device which record from the phone line, and the feed that into a mixer which also takes in the local microphones. I can't advise on specifics, only that you should experiment with test recordings until you get a satisfactory balance - it's liable to be tricky. Use headphones for everyone - don't let the microphones pick up the telephone call.

What is the best way to attenuate PA larsen when mixing a live recording ?

Dear Xers & 9ers
I recorded a band live, unfortunately there was quite a lot of near-larsen ringing in the monitors on stage. When mixing I tried to fix the prob using the standard EQ, with mixed results: actually there seem to be more frequencies to suppress than there are bands available on the EQ, the frequency of some ringings is really hard to spot, and the end result sounds really weak. I heard about automatic detection of larsens in PAs and would like to know if something using the same principle (but "offline") in available in Logic X, and if not does it exist as a 3d party plug-in ?
In any case, I'd love to hear about any non-automated makeshift trick in 9 or X !
Thank you

As a live sound engineer myself ( festivals a large scale gigs ) then the answer to your feedback question is that the rig was not properly rung out ( 31 bar graphic wise ) and the monitors were running too loud.
But that's a whole different subject than we cover in this help forum.
If the feedback is already all over your recording then I'm afraid you're going to have a job trying to remove it.
I've never heard of a post production feedback suppression plugin for Logic either. There is however a 31bar graphic equaliser that comes in the form of an Apple AU plugin as standard in Logic but I'm not sure this will help if the feedback is already on the recording. You can try notching out the problem frequencies and see I guess.

What is the best way to fix broken vis when the type library of the active x server changes (methods or properties addes)?

Every time there is a change to the active X server I am developing drivers for I have to go back through all the vi's I have developed and re-point the methods an properties back to what they were to fix the broken arrows. The only change in the Active X server is usually an additional method or property. There has to be a better way, I have over 130 vi's I have to fix for every update and it keeps getting larger.

This is somthing I can try, but I don't think it will solve my problem. My reference never changes, it is always the same and is correctly registered with every new release. What does change are the number of methods and properties. With each new release there are usualy additional methods and properties; however, the old ones are still there with the same names (thank goodness). The problem this causes with LabVIEW, apparently, whenever there is a change in the type library you must re-point all the methods an properties again, at least this is what I am experiencing. If doing what you suggested works, it would be some kind of magic that I would like an explanation for.

What is the best way to record a project to an external recorded via firewire. Also, who makes a recorder that works with a mac?

What is the best way to record a project from the timeline to an external recorder via firewire? Also, who makes a recorder that works with a mac and recordes in realtime? This is possible right?

While theoretically possible, sometimes the camera people disable recording back to tape from the computer due to DRM (digital rights managment) issues. They will allow tape to tape transfers however.
Test your process first is all I can advise.

What is the best way to record a video(not big) for free on a mac w/isight?

What is the best way to record a video(not big) for free on a mac w/isight? I need to just make a short (less than 5 minute, no special effects) video, but I can't figure out any programs that will make this possible for me.
Thanks.

Hi Carolyn,
you can use iMovie to record a video for free on a Mac with iSight.
1. Open iMovie HD
2. Choose “Create a new project”
3. Name the project for example “iSight Movie” (first field). In the second field, let the default location “Sequences”, in the third one, video format, choose “iSight”. Push “Create”
4. iMovie window opens, next to the scissors, choose the camera (Camera mode), then iSight. Now you appear on the screen, right?
5. Press “Record with iSight” in the main picture window.
6. Press the same button to stop. Your new clip appears now in the clip panel at the right.
7. You are done!

What's the best way to record different articulations in 1 phrase?

In my first violins I am using forte legato, pianissimo pizz, forte tremelo and forte marcato in 1 phrase within 4 bars. What now would be the best way to record this? I am using Peter Siedlaczek's Complete Classical Collection. Do I make a seperate track for every effect and record 1 bar on every track? Or do I use the Key Switch for every effect withing 1 track? What is the most easiet way of working and especiallyu, what used not all my processor power? I only have a PowerPc with w GB ram.

Seems like you've answered your own question as those are the two ways to do what you are trying to do. Using the key-switch will be less CPU intensive than using multiple instances of the plugin.

What is the best way to record video games on my mac

what is the best way to record video games on my mac?

I'm unclear about what you're asking - could you be a little clearer? I know you say that you want to "record video games" but I'm not sure if you're asking if you could, for instance, create a movie of video games as they're being played or what.

What's the best way to record a phone conversation to GB?

i am doing a small podcast with my best friend "the joseph podcast" and we have a few celebrities calling in to our show, we can't believe it either, Angela Kinsey from "the office" and Charlie Day from "it's always sunny in philadelphia" and we were wondering what the best way to record a phone conversation would be. we need help and we are pretty much poor so keep it cheap. thanks so much!

If I were trying to record something very important, likely "get one chance only" type of thing, I would not use GB to do the recording. I would use a tape recorder and then later transfer the recording to GB.
I'd use something like this BELL-SONECOR TR-70 Tele-Recorder Adapter for $13.

What is the best way to connect my ipad to the high-speed Internet connection in a hotel room

what is the best way to connect my ipad to the high speed inernet connection in a hotel room

every connection is a bit different. Generally, connect to the wifi, then you may need to open Safari, and may even need to try to get to one of your bookmarked pages to trigger the 'agree to our terms' page to come up.
As to it kicking you off every so often, there are sometimes glitches with the wifi on iPads, you can also be subject to any programming the hotel has. Like I've noticed various places that only allow you to log on for a period of time before having to relogin.
most hotels have 1-800 numbers, so you can always try calling that to see if their tech support has any tips for the frequent disconnection issue.

What is the best way to connect my guitar to the usb port on my IMac

This is for use with Logic Pro X
what is the best way to connect my guitar to the usb port on my
I-Mac

As has been said really, the less you pay the less quality, and flexibility you'll have on your sound.
For example, you could run on a 'Rocksmith Real Tone Cable' if you just wanted a cheap way of getting your guitar into the computer for some fun. Probably cost you $30 (I live in UK so can't be sure). If you're starting out then this could be considered the best option for dipping your toe in the water without spending too much.
You won't get a really nasty sound out of that if you can process it yourself in Logic afterwards to clean up, but it won't be great either. I imagine it could get quite noisy so you'd need to get heavily gating your guitar sound, if you're playing something clean that's not ideal.
Longterm, you're far better getting a decent audio interface, as you need something to play sound back through, if you have different input sources you usually have to create an aggregrate device on osx to use multple sources at once esp if you're using the built in audio chip on your mac to listen.
All this can add latency and possibly sync issues (i.e. drum tracks not in time with audio etc.), although generally it's not too bad, but it's something worth knowing if you want to do things on the cheap without buying a dedicated interface.
What kind of money did you want to spend? Are you thinking super duper cheap, and then see how it goes and maybe spend more in future if you enjoy it? Personally i would say £100-150 would get your something good to start with, like that Presonus audiobox, there's a lot of options like that available.
My local music shop always push the alesis io2 on new users, gotta say i'm not that overly impressed with it. Line 6 stuff will be good however, but limiting. Although i beleive you get their software for free with it?

What is the best way to find a file on the servers disk without using web.xml?

          What is the best way to find a file on the servers disk without using web.xml?
          I want to find a configuration file not contained within the war file I have
          created. Is there a way to pass information into the ServletContext with out
          rebuilding the ear or war files? Tomcat 4.0 can do this in its server configuration
          files. Does BEA have the equivalent?
          Regards,

You can specify the path to the file as a system property
          eg
          java -Dconfig.file.location=./mydirecotry/myfile.txt com.test.MyApp

What is the best way to manage multiple ipods using the same itunes?

Hi Everyone
i am trying to manage three different ipods through the one Itunes, all with very different tastes, not sure if I am doing it the best or easiest way so does anybody have a simple solution on what you're supposed to do, to keep it all simple!
Cheers
Liv

If you have created a new Windows user account you need to log out and then log back in with your original user name. By default each Windows profile will have an independent iTunes library.
If instead you managed to create a new library within the same profile. click the icon to start iTunes and immediately press and hold down the shift key, keep holding until asked to create or choose a library. Click Choose and navigte back to your original which should be at <User's Music>\iTunes.
Your question as posed was:
What is the best way to manage multiple iPods using the same iTunes {library}?
in which case Selected Playlists is probably the best approach. Simply create a playlist for each device, Alice's iPod, Bob's iPhone etc. and sync the device with the appropriate list.
