Man, It has been forever since I posted here. Recording going fine but I have question. If I was going to buy a computer to record my music on what should I chose? I need to know whcih would be the cheapest but still good. Would an imac suffice? Or should I go PC? I know you guys repeat...

Yamaha aw4416 worth the money or should i wait till its cheaper? bert

Hey dudes, I have been asked by a friend to investigate both soundforge and acid but am completely ignorant about them. Could anyone give me a brief out line of what these babies do and whether they are worth the money. Cheers and sorry for my ignorance. Bert

More questions. What is a PK file which gets created every time I open any wave forms? Is it essential and if not how do I get rid of them? I have unchecked the non-audio information save button but to no avail. It does it even if there is no copyright, author etc in the info area. Thanks...

Hey dudes When I record and save the wave form everything is fine until I reopen it at some point. When I do this Cool Edit cuts off a tiny amount, or rather adds a tiny amount. It means that I cannot loop a nice piece unless I re-cut it. Am I doing something wrong or is there anything I can...

Hey, I was thinking about buying the Yamaha AW44-16 but a friend told me not to bother. It would be more benificial to buy a computer. What i want to know is whether it makes sense. I already use Cool Edit Pro for mastering and I know it would be a lot easier if I already had the raw files...

Hey dudes I have got another question about the Dr-202. What I want to know is whether or not the preset patterns including the bass line that accompanies them are subject to copyright. Or can I use them in my own projects? I know that the demo song composed by some dude on the box is...

Hey cool edit dudes. I have some voices that i want to make quite mechanical, much like the stephen hawking sound, and the sound that radiohead used on fitter happier. Is there a setting on cool edit pro which does the job. I've tried flanging it and then putting on a chorus and then detuning...

After years of being a die-hard musician I have finally seen the light and need for computers in the studio. What I want to know is what software is the best for multitrack recording? Thats it! Cheers dudes Bert

A friend of mine has one of these babies and i have been playing around with it and i like what i hear. Are there any ways i can get different sounds on it apart from just tweeking the knobs and sliders on the panels? What i mean is, anything to download and put on it. The sounds are cool but...

alright guys. as anyone who owns one of these babies is aware, they are hiss city. trying to record one is a nightmare. anyone got any suggestions as to how to make it sound better? i put it through a compressor and limiter with the mid turned down on the mixer and yet it still manages to...

Does anyone know how i can get my vocal to sound like "Beck's shouting through a mega-phone sound"? At the moment I am going through a guitar effects unit with a well overdriven wah, but it produces far too much noise. is there a dedicated unit to do this? any help would be rad guys. Cheers...

I am putting my vocal through a ZOOM RFX 1000 and then direct into a Yamaha MD4s. It still produces residual noise. The ZOOM has a compressor/limiter setting on it but this seems to have little effect. The same happens if I try to feed my guitar through it. One way of reducing it is to cut...

i have a boss dr-202 groove box.....nice...like it a lot. i am trying to get this little baby to record onto a yamaha md4s. the only problem is that the little bastard creates enough HISS to obscure the sound of a concorde taking off when i try to record it! i knew it was a HISSY little fella...
