    Home Made E-drums

    I had this posted over in the cave, but figured I'd move it over here and probably get a little more help. https://homerecording.com/bbs/showthread.php?t=217006 I'm thinking about building a home made e-kit and wanted to get your guys' opinion on drum modules. Really, I'm not even going to...

    MIDI and EWQL Orchestra

    Hi there, I've been using East West Orchestra for a while now, but had a question for you guys in regards to how you write your string parts. Do you guys just use general midi instrument to get the structure, then bypass the midi instruments after that's done, and route through whatever...

    Legally printing cover songs on CD...

    I'm just curious if anyone knows what the process to legally put a cover song on a CD is. I'm half way through with my project and was thinking about covering some songs from old video games just for the hell of it, but I don't want to end up getting sued or something. Don't you just have to...

    MIDI Controller Questions

    I'm pretty sure that Sonar 5 will support more than one controller, but what about software like Reason 3? I want to get an 88 key MIDI controller and the Novation Remote SL Zero, but if some apps like reason won't recognize more than one controller at a time, then I'll just get the REmote SL...

    Monitor selector

    Anyone know of a relatively inexpensive A/B maybe C selector? I'm looking to spend under $150, if possible, and everything I've really seen is either 1 mono in, and 3 mono outs. Or is 1 mono in and 3 sets of L and R outs. Seems like the stereo image would be completely lost going that way...

    Panning issue in Sonar 5

    Last night I was messing around with some distorted guitar parts and messing with some techniques and I ran into a problem that I don't recall running into with Sonar 3. I recorded 4 tracks of the same guitar part panned one hard left, one hard right, one 68% left, and 68% right. I'm recording...

    To record in stereo or not to...

    HI I just was just sitting here thinking to myself about recording bass and guitar and was wondering which would be better; mono or stereo? I've just been recording in mono, and for distorted guitar parts, I've been doubling up and panning hard left and hard right. What would the benefits be...

    Recording automation for VST

    Hello there, maybe someone can refresh my memory, but I'm using this plug-in called the Shepard. It's a whisteling emulator that was free and I figured I'd mess around with it and write some old western movie type songs (I can't whistle worth shit). Anyway, you can add the track nodes to...

    Sample/Bit-Rate Question...

    Hi I have a few questions I'm sure you guys could help me with. I know CD audio is 16/44, so my CD songs I've been recording at 24/44. I'm also trying to get into film and video scoring and was curious what format those are in. I thought I heard DVD's are 24/96 so I'm assuming most video...

    Speaker hummin... hmmmm...

    Hello again! I keep getting this high pitch squeal from my computer speakers when I turn it up to a listening level, anyone know how to get rid of it? I have Klipsch 2.0 speakers and am using integrated Realtek '97 drivers. For the time being I'm using it to monitor my recordings, so it's...

    GUitar humming... hmmmm...

    Hello there, I just bought a crappy off brand classical guitar, and the damn pick-up keeps humming. It's a Fishman Classic 4 pick-up preamp thing. The humming goes away when I touch the guitar output jack, but that won't work for obvious reasons. I'm thinking something isn't grouded...

    Video card question...

    Hope this is the right section, but I'm not finding anything searching on a search engine or on here... Basically, I'm trying to find the cheapest PCI-e card that will support dual wide screen monitors. Anyone know of one? I find some cards that have both VGA and DVI outputs on them, but...

    Converters question....

    Hello, I've had my little setup for a couple years now, and just started getting serious about setting money aside and upgrading it. One thing I never really looked into was a/d converters, or d/a, so really don't know much about them. Everything I read says it's the biggest improvement you...

    Mixing, Mastering Software with MIDI control...?

    Hello again, has anyone seen this new MIDI controller that's out, the Novation Remote SL something or other that has two LCD's that display what function the knobs and do-dads do. Sounds pretty sweet, but kind of expensive right now. Anyway, in theory lets say I'm using Sonar 5.x and using my...

    Us-2400

    Last question for a while, I swear to God! I think I might know the answer to this question, but do you think, or know, if Sonar x64 and Windows x64 would recognize this control surface? I'm thinking it would because it might recognize it as a Mackie control surface, but I don't know. Anyone...
