Sheep.... the sheep are the reason that song sells....The sheep are also the reason "stars" sell millions of dollars worth of crap.... Show the sheep something, tell them they love it, and they will buy it. bhhhaaaah.....

I've been using a PC to write most of my music lately. I love the odd sounds and rythmic patterns that can be used with ease but I feel myself getting stuck in the main groove and consequently.... "the song remains the same." I've gotten some tunes posted and would like opinions on these...

I can get somewhere between 30-40 stereo tracks running w/ DX plugs and VST plugs ....... PIII 550, 2x SCSI UltraWide, 256 MB check out some tracks! http://www.mp3.com/joenovice

Sorry to say it but you chould be cranking a lot more tracks than that. Especially if you aren't using any inserts/plugins/vst instruments. What kind of hard drives do you have? Who is the manufacture? etc... anything else that you can think that is system specific would help.

Heres my deal. I've been using VST for a little over a year now. I like b/c I know it, but as you probably know it has it's problems. When I worked at a music store this summer everyone I talked to said that Logic kicks VST around. It has a higher learning curve. When I upgrade it will be with...

Damn....good stuff! The mixing sounded real good, even with the mp3 format. I'd like your opinion on a song... most people aren't into this style.... and I'm not even sure if I should call it industrial rock or not. http://www.mp3.com/joe_novice

Thnx for checking out the tune........ and no smirky, it was not intended 4 radio play. It was done on a PC.... I guess you could say it has been part of my learning process(..newbie) This song was one of the accidents that go in a fun direction b/c I was tring to learn how to do tempo changes...

I've been working on writting songs for the last year and I've finally gotten one done.... (yea I know.) Anyhow this is not a traditional I IV V rock song. It's somewhat industrial but not really..... well, check it out. http://www.mp3.com/joenovice or http://www.mp3.com/novice_productions Any...

Man... I really didn't like the VAZ interface.... I tried the GRM tools from Steinberg and loved the outcome.... any experience with other plugin's along those lines?

I'm new to the synth/sound modual arena & I'm looking for some modual recommendations... I've got an Alesis QS6.1 for my controller and basic sounds... I want something that has a unique sound bank that can cover lots of styles. i.e. industural, techno, h.h., funk

I'm inclined to say it is your hd performance. You also might need to tweek on your buffer and memory settings. I use a PC so I can't help to much there..... G.L.

I'm new to ReCycle (few hours) and I want some advice and tips if you have any... My first REX file had bad timming issues but I imported onto a mono track and the file had a ton of slices...... I've read that "any' tracks work better but that's all I know.... any suggestions

I like my 8*24. The MIDI works just as well as my USB device. The only problems I ever had were the stupid ASIO drivers but after a few updates and some settings tweaks I got down to an 11ms audio latency. Not perfect (what is?) but the drivers have "plug in delay compensation" and that helped...

Yes it does sound like a sdcd issue. Look into you ASIO settings under the audio/settings tab. If you have a pro sound card then you need to use the most recent ASIO drivers for that card... if SoundBlaster: then it should work well with the ASIO multimedia driver..... what's your set up?

I'm using VST and have very few plugins. I was just wondering if anyone had any tips on developing a good mix? any plugin recommendations?
