It has 4 channel output e capability.. Can I get recommendations for an audio interface and software Pro Tools 11? Mac or Windows I would like to record it as 4 discrete channels You just need an interface with 4 ins and 4 outs. You'll need 4 separate monitors to listen to it correctly.
Once you have a DAW, interface and 4 monitors, you're golden. I recommend Reaper since its cheap and is focused on recording.
Post by Kent » Tue Nov 26, am Waz pretty much summed it up. Playback and monitoring is another issue. You'd need 4 outputs and 4 powered speakers. Learning how to encode multi channels well is good fun too.
Note: "good fun" is used here in its "massive ball ache" meaning. Dmmavar wrote: what do I need to get into drones. Post by Umcorps » Tue Nov 26, am Huge topic and I'm not any kind of expert but mixing and encoding multichannel are two separate things.
My experience of mixing multichannel in Logic was pretty straightforward once the monitoring system was set up. It's what comes after where it gets tricky. I used both AC3 encoding and Quicktime for the project I was working on. I didn't have the budget for a DTS encoder at the time so don't know what that is like. Quicktime was the simplest. I used Compressor used to ship with Logic - not sure if it still does and it was as close to a drag and drop operation as these things get. AC3 was a total ball ache.
Not only is it lossy compared to the other options but its designed around the needs of movie soundtracks and the default settings on most encoders will fuck your mix up royally. Dialog normalisation.
I wasted days doing test encodes to see which settings were the least worst. There's a real art to mastering for multichannel compression and anyone who can do it well has my undying respect. After one project I decided that, for me, life was way too short to go there again.
Easiest way, but i think the only people that would buy a quad mixed, buchla-centric reel to reel are in this sub-forum. I think I like it more now haha. I've been to a few gigs where some sound suddenly came from behind and it was awesome! SOU chattering away, randomising the channel and the notes Post by kosh » Tue Nov 26, pm I'm curious how other folks use their in simple stereo situations. Do you mix down all four channels to a stereo field so you can swirl without dropouts or do you just use the front two outputs?
Post by ZenMusic » Tue Nov 26, pm thanks I have lots of experience performing with quad sound.. I do not have one yet but it is high on my list of musts for my setup. Very flexible. Should be good for your project too. I need pro or near pro sound for the interface. I'll get the PT 11 full version thanks. It has six inputs and will record up to 6 tracks at once. It also records a stereo mix of the inputs along side the individual channels.
So you can import to your daw and have multiple mono files as well as a stereo mix. I have used it to record my quad outputs on my eurorack and it works great.
I also use a MOTU ultralite for recording as well as playback of multi channel recordings. Now I think I need at least 8 inputs line.. Post by ryangaston » Wed Nov 27, am There are so many great interfaces for that price! Sounds gorgeous, super easy to use--it'll treat the Buchla right. Includes four UA mic preamps, which are rad. Also, stupidly low latency. Not as frilly as the UA, but a badass interface for the price.
If you're going with PT11, either would do nicely. If you're going with HD11, you'll need Avid converters. Really, though, there are a million choices. Those are just two that I've really come to like that are in your stated price range. But the recommendations of Logic X and Reaper aren't off the mark, either. If you're open to it, really take a look at Logic. I'm only a recent Logic user migrated from PT , and I've been having a ton of fun making the transition.
Post by ZenMusic » Wed Nov 27, pm thanks ryangaston for the great info I'll look at Logic X.. Post by ryangaston » Wed Nov 27, pm ZenMusic wrote: thanks ryangaston for the great info I'm curious what others are using for the computer audio to speaker interfaces.
There aren't many any? I'm using a Samson C control room matrix to intercept channels 3 and 4 before going to the speakers. I needed balanced cable runs due to the length of the cables and powered speakers using different wall outlets.

I have fallen in love—again—with quadra phonic sound. In stereo quadraphonic systems SQ , four sound channels were converted down to two channels and then back to four through an SQ decoder. My significant other inherited the system after our split and quad faded from my sound world. By the end of the decade, the quad format had become nearly extinct.

The Rebirth of Quad
Related to quadraphonic: quadriplegic. Of or for a four-channel sound system in which speakers are positioned at all four corners of the listening space, reproducing signals that are independent of each other. All rights reserved. Copyright , , by Random House, Inc.
Yesterday, when I was writing about the aborted attempt of the music industry to put some kind of copy-protection system into vinyl , I mentioned in passing an old friend of the family, who had hoped that his decoder gizmo to bypass the system would make him rich. He was also the only person I ever encountered with a Quadraphonic sound set-up. Quadraphonic is the forgotten surround sound system of the s. It was never a huge commercial success, in part because the required equipment was expensive, in part because of myriad conflicting formats, and in part because of the limited availability of any albums apart from those by the Allman Brothers Band in the format. When I worked in the rarities department at Reckless , we used to automatically get any quadraphonic album that was sold into the stores to sell via mail order.
J ust as we see in 3-D, we also, in a sense, hear in 3-D. Our ability to judge visual depth and perception is based on interpreting the subtle differences between the images we see in our left and right eyes. Our ability to locate where sounds are originating is possible in part because we have learned to unconsciously understand the minute and complex time-difference relationship between the sounds from our left and right ears. I f a sound comes from our left side the sound waves will reach our left ear a fraction of a second before they reach our right ear. We've learned to interpret this subtle time difference, which, technically, is known as a phase difference.
