Thanks guys - I think the WAV file method sounds like the best, that way everything is always in sync!

Thanks guys - We are pretty pleased with how it worked out

I can get everyone in time (140 beats per minute) and they then send me thier vocals - How can I synchronize thier vocals so that they line up with my backing music?

VERY good considering the equipment you listed!! Love the sound of the banjo in any song, other than that I would like to have seen the lyrics- Good, quality songwriting and recording

Hi there Mango - I have tried to get to your website a couple of times, and no connection is made! Could you post the song on your nowhere radio site?

Hi there guys- I just did my first internet collaboration and would love any feedback I could get The song is the "Capital Of Mistletoe" - A christmas song- At http://www.soundclick.com/bands/5/songbirdcoopercollaborationmusic.htm All Lyrics by Songbird Cooper in England Music written and...

Hi there guys - I did a search for this and couldnt find it- I am trying to do some online collaboration with some friends, who dont have a VF-160 (they use some other multittracker, which is computer based). I am trying to collaborate like this: 1 ) I record the backing music, then send a...

MiddleMan - What a great post too - thanks for sharing your thoughts with me (and anyone else) - I will look into the cost of some of those gadgets on ebay.... My setup is basically a Shure SM58 and then some other cheapo Shure microphone placed a bit further out to pick up some different...

LOL!! I get the Billy Bragg comparison a lot (i.e. "you cannot sing" - they are sort of right though on both the comparison and the comment) I am interested in the compression comments - I guess its pretty standard to use it on vocals, but I must come clean - I never have - I will make a...
