i have a mexican made fender standard jazz bass. it's not a bad instrument, except some idiot at fender decided to wire both pickups the same way... so i can never get rid of the hum -- even if i have both pickups on. i'm thinking of replacing one pickup with a standard american pickup, but am...

this is going to sound really dumb, but i'll ask it anyways... i've been using sonar for a while to just record regular audio. i wanted to learn about midi, so i bought a really crappy midi keyboard controller. this is connected (midi out) to a midiman 2x2 usb interface (midi in). The interface...

i'm coming from Cool Edit Pro - and i miss being asked to save each file as they are recorded. is there any way to NOT have Sonar save files with gibberish names? I don't want to fill up my hard drive with 50 takes... and it's very difficult to wade through all the files with names like...

i'm using cool edit pro LE and am recording at 32bit 48k. is it possible to record at 24bit? seems like a waste of disk space since my converters are 24bit. it looks like the create new wav panel jumps from 16bit to 32bit. can these settings be adjusted? thanks

I had a brand new, self-formatted ADAT tape. I recorded two guide tracks on 7 & 8 for a drummer to play to. these recorded fine and sounded fine when we played them back. So, we set up and started recording drums (tracks 1-6). About a minute in, the levels went through the roof (track by track...
