I've just got a 2nd hard-drive and put it where my first one is i.e in the top bit (5.25 in bay, I think). I just screwed it on one side with two screws, which, I thought, is a bit weird, but seems secure enough. Then, I realised, hey, isn't it supposed to go in the bottom bit with the floppy...

hi there Anybody know where I can get a good choir soundfont I'm not talking boy's choir here, more kind of new-age thick and full sounding. I've tried hammer but couldn't really find anything. Got to be free too unless I can sample it first to see if it's any good (though it would have to be...

Hi I'm using cakewalk session drummer with the built-in gm conga sounds which I thought sounded a bit crap so I downloaded some soundfonts which didn't sound too good at all. I liked the synthesised sounds better than the sampled sounfonts which is a bit sad I know but there u go. Anyone know...

Hi, I'm working on a track I wrote on guitar. Structure, lyrics, melody, chords are all finished. I wanted to give it an 'Enya' kind of treatment though (you USA dudes Enya right?, is she American or European?), you know with haunting synths and the like. So I thought should be easy. Got my...
