Focusrite Octopre Mkii Dynamic $699.99 The Focusrite OctoPre MkII Dynamic is a feature-rich expansion upgrade for any digital audio workstation. With 8 channels of Focusrite microphone pre-amplification, 8 VCA-based Red 3-derived compressors and built-in 24-bit / 96 kHz digital inputs and outputs, the OctoPre MkII is equally ideal as an expansion for any analogue or digital console, or for a hard disk recorder.The OctoPre MkII Dynamic's digital inputs and outputs let you make the most of often-neglected ADAT I/Oideal for expanding the number of mic-pre inputs on your interface or for providing analogue monitoring from any digital ADAT feed.With this entire package fitting into a single 1U chassis complementing Focusrite's Saffire PRO range, and all controls adjustable from the front fascia, OctoPre MkII Dynamic sets the standard for modern, compact, multi-channel recording expansions.Saffire Mic Pre Focusrite has, over the past two decades, built a reputation as the market leader for high quality recording equipment, with its mic pre technology as the cornerstone of that enviable reputation. The original ISA mic pre, as featured in the early Focusrite Fort console, is still used by many of the industry's greatest producers and has contributed to the sound of countless hit records. Today, Focusrite design equipment for a far greater audience, from professionals to amateur enthusiasts, all with varying budgets.As with the Classic ISA mic pre used in both the ISA and Red ranges, the Saffire mic pre found in the OctoPre MkII Dynamic is designed to the highest possible standards. It upholds the same wide bandwidth philosophy featured in the original fort console, back in 1989. As with the Classic ISA mic pre, the Saffire mic pre design features custom components which have undergone an intense testing and qualification process. With the facts and figures in, Focusrite designs then have to pass the essential listening stage. Any design can measure well on the test bench but only a great design can be qualified in the studio. The FET-based Saffire mic pre design is no exception. It delivers clarity without colouration and exhibits the signature transparency for which Focusrite have become famous. With the high channel count interfaces (Saffire PRO 40 and Liquid Saffire 56) and both the OctoPre MkII and OctoPre MkII Dynamic, the Saffire pre-amp has been optimized for drums. The theoretical maximum level of a microphone was calculated, and the mic pre was adjusted with this in mind so as not to clip with this level present, set to minimum gain. As a result, the mic pre won't clip, even with a high output level mic right up close to a snare drum (the mic input will accept signal levels up to +16dBU from a microphone). Compression The Compressors featured in OctoPre MkII Dynamic are a new VCA-based, feed-forward design, derived from the celebrated Focusrite Red 3. With just a single dial, these eight 'recording' compressors allow you to get to the desired amount of compression for each channel |

How To Read Drum Notation
If you're intending to play drums then you really should become skilled at drum notation. Drum notation is sheet music that shows you the timing of every drum in the drum kit. If you already understand how to read music you will get used to drum notation without difficulty. As it uses lots of similar notations to traditional sheet music, if you can already read music you will have no dificulty with drum notation. The following notes illustrate how the timing in drum notation is indicated in the music, so even if you are unable to read orthodox sheet music these should assist you to understand drum notation.
Traditional sheet music is made up of a staff, a time signature at the start and the notes of music. Five horizontal lines create the staff, which is divided into measures by vertical lines. You will also see added markings included in the music, these are dynamics and are there to show how the music is to be played.
To indicate the timing the time signature is used. This consists of two numbers stacked vertically. Common time (4/4) is the time signature most frequently seen, but others are used, for example 2/4, 3/4, 6/8. The time signature shows the count of beats in a measure (the top number) and the type of note that gets one beat (the bottom number), so for a timing of 2/4 each quarter note will be counted as one beat, and each measure will have 2 beats, similarly, if the time signature showed 6/8 time then each measure would have 6 beats and in this case the eighth note would be counted as one beat. The time signature does not show an absolute measure, but gives the timing relative to the speed of the music.
It is essential when you are learning to play to study the correct timimg. To do this count the beats and strive to play the note at the precise count. Do not alter the pace at which you count . If you were playing piano, where you can to sustain a note, then you would hold the note for the count indicated.. So for 4/4 time (4 beats to a measure, quarter note gets one beat) this would be a count of 1 for a quarter note, a count of 2 for a half note and a count of 4 for a whole note. Since you aren't able to do this when playing drums, the way to keep correct timing is to strike the drum on the count then count out the rest of the beats for that note.
A drum kit has a number of drums and it is necessary to know which drum to strike. This is shown by the position of the notes on the staff, unlike in ordinary sheet music which makes use of the position of the note to show pitch, with the pitch increasing as the notes ascend the staff. In drum notation the notes for each drum are placed on the same stave, more often than not with hi-hat cymbals highest followed by the snare drum(s), then bass drum as the lowest. Some music will have a key to tell you which line indicates which drum if the regular positioning is not being utilised. In some cases a cymbol will be indicated by an x in place of a dot.
