Sorry if this is off topic for this forum, but i had to ask a question to get it off my chest. Ive recently seen some new emo type bands perform live, or somewhat live. This includes the infamous Fall out Boy. Ive played music and performed for over thirty years, so i like to check out what the...

I was using a kx soundblaster card, and it was recording o.k. considering, then i tried to move up a bit and picked up a used tascam 122. Its been nothing but a nightmare. Sonar crashes as soon as i go to the audio settings, and it reboots my pc. ive spent hours on the phone with tascam, tried...

Just installed the Tascam 122 interface, and it works o.k. with the supplied programs. When i try to start Sonar, somewhere in the beginning when its scanning vsts, it crashes and reboot the computer. Im thinking it has to do with a conflict with the new hardware. But i cant change the...

Quantize always seems to make things worse. Im sure its something im doing wrong, but any suggestions appreciated. I usually select a midi tracks, and experiment with quantize. If the music is relatively fast, i use a 16th or 32nd, i take the percentage to about 40%. What i usually get is a...
