    silence after xporting to .aif/.wav

    Hope someone can help. maybe run thru your procedure for exporting cubase files for CD burning, iTunes playback, etc. I'm apparently overlooking something, at least I hope it's that simple. Once I have gone thru --file> export> audio mixdown to .aif @ 24bit, 96khz, stereo interleaved, I end...

    exporting .cpr for burning CDs

    Hey, I'm new to Cubase SL (and home recording as well) and I'm trying to figure this exporting thing out. When I finish a project in CubaseSL and export to .aif file, I end up with 2 files--a 'filenameR.aif and a 'filenameL.aif'. I can't for the life of me figure out how to get the 'L' and the...

    Anybody have a clue what's up with this thing. I just installed Cubase SL2.0 (on G4, panther 10.3.2). Installation was 'successful' according to the dialog box. The owner's manual states this- "The first time the copy protection device is plugged in, it will be registered as a new hardware...

    MR8 model GB?

    That would be MR8 with Good Buttons. What's with all the button complaints? I was just ready to order MR8 and now I'm seeing all these posts about button malfunction. I'm so discouraged now. Should one in the 'shopping mode' look around for a Boss or Tascam or something else? Someone enlighten...

    midi to computer?

    I'm real new to this, in fact I haven't even gotten started yet. I'm setting up a fostex mr8 recording set-up for guitars and vox, but I also want to accompany this with some midi. I have a midi keyboard. The question is, how do I go from keyboard to computer? Is that where 'midi interface'...

    Pulling together a first time set-up. Made most of my decisions already thanks to this forum. Mics and preamps are still a gray area for me however. Any suggestions for a good set-up that wont kill my budget? Been looking at 100-200$ mics and less for preamp, if possible. Also, I have a deep...

    what preamp for mic-ART tube?

    Trying to pull together a first-time digital recording set-up and I've about narrowed all my purchasing desicions down except for a preamp. Any suggestions on a decent, affordable unit. How about the ART tube MP studio preamp. Are these things any good, they sure are cheap? Any other preamps...

    vocal style/mic choice

    Why would someone start their thread with "newbie here!" when our questions usually speak for ourselves?-- Does vocal style have much influence on mic choice? For example, I have a deep voice with not much range (if I had a nickel for everytime someone said, "you sound just like Johnny Cash"...

    what about ProTools?

    Why do I read and hear about ProTools being the all this and all that yet I can't find it anywhere? I've looked @ Musiciansfriend, Zzsounds and a few other places with no luck. There's not even a forum dedicated to it here! Where can one purchase this program, if it actually exists? What is a...

    mr8 purchasing decisions

    After lurking around here for a while, I've decided to order the mr8. While ordering I would like to go ahead and get some other goodies while I've got some extra $$. Hoping maybe some of ya'll can give me some direction. I'm looking for a basic 'start-up' thing. Here's what I want to do-...

    Brand neewbie, posting first of probably many questions. I'm still in the shopping mode but am leaning hard towards the vf80. One question I have for now is what is the A.S.P. that is mentioned in the features along with improved effects. Forgive my ignorance if it's something obvious that I...
