    Reaper and SMPTE incoming sync

    You could track all of your sessions with Reaper, both midi and vocal! Sure, Reaper can chase, but seems like you might want a dedicated h/w sequencer for your studio. If you want to dedicate a computer and interface, surely Reaper will work. :thumbs up: Reaper will sync and chase SMTPE. I have...

    Is Cubase falling behind?

    maybe Cubase is falling behind?! In what areas? Reaper is free to try! full version!! latest regular upgrades/releases. Reaper / midi issues? dunno... Lots of upgrades in the midi area. I use reaper with midi all the time, with internal vsts and external midi synths. I guess we won't know...

    Question concerning doubling lead vocal

    Doubling / Thickening Interesting... I don't much talk about using different mics with different distances between source & mics. I'm also not seeing anything on detuning 2-5 cents and automation. My TC-Helicon uses detune among other things to fatten vocals. afterthought: Is see a lot of...

    Mastering Software

    oh, my. Lead vocals seem to be the only thing happening (sort of). Other vocals way, way too loud (already stated)... band is muffled; not clear. Again, serious panning and mixing issues. Not ready for mastering. I'm just using bluetooth stereo speakers... not studio speakers, and issues...

    OP, your friend plays piano well? Can you find a weighted piano/keyboard/controller your friend can play to create a good unquantized midi file of the piece you want recorded? Anyway, there is a big difference between a musical piece and something quite repetitive. That is how I would...

    Fixing very audible breathing in a soft acoustic track

    Quoting the OP: I'm kind of at a loss what to do about it. I know the RIGHT thing is to just re-record the acoustic guitar on this Quoting you: the 'before' option is either not available or not practical Me: The "before" option is both "available" and "practical", unless I'm totally missing...

    That's IT!!! I've had it!!!

    Bobby... I see you're getting there. I have 3 keyboards... and an Axon midi module as well as the JV1010. I series connect all my midi gear and pick out what I like, at least I used to years ago. The sound is good, but you have to control the mix/panning you're getting on each device. I have...

    With the death of Sonar and Cakewalk, what are people moving to?

    Reaper $60 w/manuals that stay current... I think moving to reaper is a no-brainer.
