NEW ABLETON LIVE (AUDIO EDITING) STICKER FOR KEYBOARD Review

NEW ABLETON LIVE (AUDIO EDITING) STICKER FOR KEYBOARD
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
You don't need stickers for Ableton Live, due to key-mapping!
I dove into computer audio/video recently, buying Ableton Live, Pro Tools, and Sony Vegas. I bought keyboard stickers for all three because I wanted to limit the learning curve and just get going as fast as possible.
I use the Sony Vegas stickers, but NOT THE ABLETON stickers! The reason is, Ableton Live has a key mapping function that is very intuitive to use. It allows you to assign a keyboard button to any on-screen (clickable) function within about 3 seconds: no menus, no data-chart, etc. The letters appear on-screen during mapping mode.
Ableton is a very well designed piece of software. It makes the 'immovable' shortcut keys of other software seem very 20th century. Isn't it ridiculous that as a video or software editor or musician, that you have to "relearn" how to do an edit, even if you've done it for years? (like me)
What would be useful is if someone made stickers that corresponded to the icons within the program, so you could make your own assignments on the keyboard.
I don't know why this item is cross-posted in "Office supplies", "Everything Else", and "Books" as of Wed January 26, 2011. That is why I am cross-posting my review, to save people from buying a basically unnecessary product.
Of the stickers I recevied, a GOOD MANY of them don't seem to work as defined. I think they are probably out of date. This was true of my Sony Vegas stickers as well.

Numark iDec iPod Recording & Playback System Review

Numark iDec iPod Recording and Playback System
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have several audio racks as I do commercial audio for events in our area. I use Ipod Nano's as they have crossfade capability and I no longer have to hover over the board trying to crossfade music or use my notebook, etc. The Ipod Nano works great as I establish a playlist for a venue and then let it run. The problem is I'm often trying to find a good location for the Ipod to be connected into the system without knocking it around or worrying about the connections. (Also charging some Ipods, like the Nano while doing playback is a bit of a challenge due to the close proximity of the connectors, etc.) The IDEC solves all the problems. It takes up 2 rack spaces in a rack, you need to install the correct insert for the Ipod you'll be using and then insert the Ipod...you're good! You can use the large jog wheel like you would on the face of the Ipod, it's being charged, it's in a protected place on the rack itself which won't get knocked around, iand the backlight can remain on without worry of the battery running down, and you have large controls you can readily control vs trying to deal with the smaller buttons on the Ipod itself. I purchased one which I have at home and found it was very convenient, so I obtained one for my large location rack, and then another for a smaller rack. I can't say it's entirely worth the money if you're using Ipods only occasionally in a rack for one or two venues a month, etc. or you really don't run the system for ongoing hours of playback. If, however, you have a rack at home and you tend to use the Ipod a great deal and don't need a remote, it's great. If you have a system at an event where you're continually running playback audio or worried you're going to run out of juice before you can charge up the Ipod, it's great as it brings stability to the system. As far as recording, however, I haven't really tried it, although it's probably fine, I've just not done it as more often I just use it for playback. It's a well built unit and a great interface for your system.

DJ Coffin for 2 X Pioneer / Denon / Technics CD Players Plus 12" Mixer with Wheels Review

DJ Coffin for 2 X Pioneer / Denon / Technics CD Players Plus 12 Mixer with Wheels
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This case is absolutely exceptional in every way, except for one major problem... the mixer will not sit flush if you need to use XLR or 1/4" plugs, for there is simply not enough room between the rear of the mixer and the rear of the case. Had they made the case one inch wider, this would be a flawless product. As it stands now, I had to cut, with a utility knife, a few areas of the case's rear foam just so I could create enough room to facilitate my XLR plugs. How could they not think of this ahead of time? I am satisfied overall, simply because every other ambit of this product is flawless, but I wonder with amazement how RR didn't approach this problem.

Marathon MA-DNX300 Flight Road Case Review

Marathon MA-DNX300 Flight Road Case
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought this case for my Allen & Heath Xone:02 mixer. It's a 10" mixer but rather bulky compared to the denon pictured. I had previously ordered and returned a giant dj coffin from Marathon. The coffin had Velcro and foam so that you could put the foam where you needed to secure your gear.
After I returned the coffin I ordered 2 turntable cases that also featured the Velcro/foam option. I am a bit disappointed that this case has the foam glued in instead of Velcro, meaning I had to cut a good deal of it away to fit my mixer in there. It's not the end of the world but figured I'd share my experience here in case others have the same mixer and are looking for a case to fit it in. I still have some foam cutting to do before it truly fits but I think once it does fit, I'll forget all about the missing Velcro.

I remember once upon a time having Mixman and really enjoying it. I rebought it recently only to find that it's not supported by any OS newer than XP. I spoke with the company and they said it has been discontinued and no plans to make it compatible with Vista or Win7. Win 7's VM crashed when I try to install the driver and the software wont work without it.
I did see there are some people on the net independently trying to write newer drivers and other places show you how to make the hardware compatible with other programs. But, this is way too much to pay for this and not have it work.
They should at least mention the hardware/software requirements so you don't waste your time and know better what you're getting.

Numark iDec A/V Playback and Recording Rack Interface for iPod Review

Numark iDec A/V Playback and Recording Rack Interface for iPod
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I'm writing this review as I can't find but one review on the IDEC anywhere on the web. We have several racks which we use for commercial audio applications and home use. I've used Ipods almost exclusively for location playback music but found that connecting it to a mixer to be a pain. We own several types of Ipods, and they've all been great, but we usually use a Nano as it allows a playlist to crossfade. (I haven't noticed that the others have that capability). If we run the system in Mono it means coming out of the Nano with a cable going to a splitter and then combining the signals into one input to go into the board. If in stereo it's just coming out of the Nano to a splitter and going into the board. If you run the system for hours at a time charging a Nano can be a challenge as the audio connector is too close to the charging connector (without using a Monster adapter, etc.) or hauling in a dock of some sort. Also the Nano's display while not illuminated is hard to see in some environments, so if you run the background display constantly you run the battery down quicker. To try and remedy all this, I purchased a Numark "Fit for Sound". In doing so I have a clean way of connecting the Nano, charging it, keeping it illuminated and operating the controls. Numark's Fit for Sound is the predecessor of the IDEC (?) but it is playback only and has both RCA and XLR connectors, and was supposedly designed for use in gyms and fitness centers (and has an infrared remote). Anyway, I purchased one and installed it into one of my racks. Voila (!) I had the perfect solution for having the Ipod in a stable rack-mounted device which charges, provides audio and the controls perform exactly as the controls are on the Ipod. (No more fumbling with an Ipod in a dock and worrying about getting the unit out of the dock or possibly damaging the connector, etc. all while running sound at a location.) I liked it so much I put it in my rack at home (so again I'm without a solution for a location rack...so I needed another one). The IDEC will probably provide the same performance as the Fit for Sound as it looks identical with the exception of possibly no infrared remote, and not having the XLR and will only have RCA connectors (no biggie). The recording aspect is also a benefit, but be aware that not all Ipods will do voice recording, and I've found by using external microphones on Ipods and through the use of recording interfaces by other companies the Ipods (which have moving hard drives, such as the full size Ipods we own) create a slight background noise for 10 seconds or so every few minutes as (I think) this is when the audio data is being written to the drive. I believe this is something internal to the Ipod and not associated with a recording interface, but I've not recorded with the IDEC so I don't know the exact cause or remedy. I don't think most folks notice this as the noise is like a slight whine and I notice it as I'm using some higher-end headphones and listen for any issues. No one else has brought this to my attention and it's not readily noticed unless you're doing something where there is a lapse in the audio, such as between words being spoken (if recording a sermon) or between songs where you use an Ipod as a recording device. I don't know this is the case with all Ipods or with Nanos (which reportedly don't have moving hard drives) or will be associated with the IDEC, but my guess is this has more to do with the Ipod than the recording interface. I found the price on Amazon for the IDEC with shipping is the lowest I've found on the web, and I'm looking forward to using it both as a playback and recording device. The Fit for Sound device (is identical except for being white in color) is basically bulletproof, solid, reliable and well built. The IDEC should be just as good and probably before all is said and done I'll have one in each of my racks. You can think of it as a super-dooper, bulletproof Ipod dock which mounts on a rack and provides a safe, reliable, and clean way to run an Ipod with the added benefit of being able to record and that probably sums up what the IDEC is all about. It's the answer to what many of us have really needed and wished someone came up with a long time ago. I hope this review helps.
