Well i just got back from moe. and keller willams over the weekend for my fiirst taping. Keller came out pretty good with a few clicks and pops mostly from the bass hits. moe. has pops and clicks all over the place not sure what they are from. I was getting overs all night and could not get rid of them. My levels were turned down as far as i could go and they would not stop.

Here is what i was running A51-TL>MME>C1-VN and recording with n-track also was recording at 24/48

I really don't know what went wrong and i can't wait to get out and record something else.

Well if you were getting "overs" the pops and clicks would be your recording clipping. I'm not that familiar with the MiniMe but isn't there a setting/jumper that sets the gain lower?

yeah i belive there is

hzgone, are you talking about the show at universal lending in denver? if so i met you there, i was 2 tables over from you with my laptop and usbpre. sorry your recording didn't come out, but if you need a copy let me know or download phil's fob source (in the server trading section)

Yep that was me at Universal. I'm kind of bumed but oh well i will get some more shows under my belt and may change that jumper setting and see what happens.

I'm also getting Phil's copy as i type this can't wait to listen to it

You sure the clicks and pops were from overs and not from a config problem on the laptop?

hzgone · « **Reply #6 on:** August 19, 2003, 05:15:53 PM »

I'm pretty sure they are from overs. The MME was in the red all the time.

Brian Skalinder · « **Reply #7 on:** August 19, 2003, 05:16:54 PM »

Okay, yeah...sounds like trouble. Just wanted to check b/c laptop config issues could easily cause the pops and clicks.

Changed that internal jumper yet?

Also I the minime has a soft limit with 3 diff settings and has a soft limit compress with 3 settings. I used the soft limit on the 1st setting last night to record a friend of mine singing last night and she sounding great!!! anyway, I dont know what the results would be at a concert but my recording last night turned out awesome

Yeah, cool edit pro has a feature to remove pops and clicks. When I get home from work I'll fire up CEP and give some more details.

its a plug in under the master section

hzgone · « **Reply #18 on:** August 21, 2003, 04:06:16 PM »

I see that master section but isn't that just levels. I can't find what your talking about. Must be blind or something

F.O.Bean · « **Reply #19 on:** August 21, 2003, 05:14:44 PM »

ummm, under your master section, go to effects and open and then hit the white box on the right, the ones w/ the #'s, once you do that, go to VST, and under that plugin, there should say 'declicker', once ya have it on, hit render and it'll process the file, quite easy, i must say, ands good luck bro.....oh, and max your 'deploper' under the declicker function and thats about it.....

hzgone · « **Reply #20 on:** August 21, 2003, 07:53:13 PM »

Ok cool i found it thanks again
