At all I think your biggest problem at the moment is that you can't hear what you are doing!

Huh?!?

Why are your boxes at the table and not lot higher? They should point at your head/ears! Are you a dwarf ro do you lie on the table while you are mixing? So take some books or boxes and move them up! What about investing in a better pair of monitors?
|
I have elevated the monitors. But to be honest and this is worse, I usually mix to ipod earbuds (i feel you cringing) I live in an apartment and try to keep my "noise" to a minimum. But i would like to invest in some good monitors

Next thing I would improve (and this is definately as important!) is the converter!
|
I don't do much live recording, so I was less concerned with this, but I think you raise a good point about how well the converter references the output. All of my sounds come from softsynths. Is there much outboard effects/editing done with soft synths?
Thanx much for the suggestions. I've been checkign out a few converters and I'm liking the Fireface800, Apogee Ensemble, and that unl2 +dsp...
