I wish to get back into home recording. In the past I've used cubse vst32 and windows xp to produce great results Is there a way of still using Cubase with windows xp? I realise windows xp is discontinued. However, I won't need any microsoft updates because I won't be accessing the internet.

I'm using a Fender Precision Bass. I have a PolyTune 2 Tuning Pedal (True Bypass) and I'm hoping to add a Compression Pedal. I will also be using a DI Box - to cable my bass to the Mixing Desk/Amp. My question is this: With regard to buffering - high impedance signal from my bass - would...

I'm using Cubase VST. I can use FX inserts and sends on audio tracks which have already been recorded but I cannot apply FX inserts or sends to individual tracks which have no audio on them. I'm intending to use Cubase VST as a live mixer for a duo - playing backing tracks + 2 vocal mics and...

Thinking of getting this piece of kit to enable me to get a signal from my guitar/bass into Cubase (my Behringer mixer doesn't have a guitar input). Has anyone any experience of using this?

I'm getting a spill from the already recorded tracks when over dubbing vocals. I'm using an SE2200 mic with a pop shield. When the recorded vocals are played back the backing tracks can be heard playing slightly in the background on the vocal track. This is obviously an over spill from the head...

When I set the count-in for recording - 2 bars 4/4 - there is a 9th click which sounds when each recording starts (and is recorded along with the song). I'm confused why this extra 'one' click occurs? Anyone know a way around this or why it is occurring?

After reading through various reviews regarding mic pre-amps, I've decided this is the way to go. However, I believe it can't be used with Windows XP (my OS) - is there a way around this? Does anybody have experience of using this interface with Windows XP?

Can anyone recommend a quality pre-amp for the home recording of vocals, bass, acoustic guitar, electric guitar into Cubase. Around £60-80 is my budget.

I'm using Cubase VST with an Alesis SR-18 drum machine (don't have manual). I have a M-Audio Delta sound card with a MIDI connection on the break-out box. I have no problem using the machine as a stand alone beat box - transferring audio (wav files) into Cubase. However, can I use this drum...

I'm using a Behringer UB802 mixer. I've recorded vocals into Cubase without any problem. Could hear the vocals being sang/recorded via my monitors. And the vocal wav file can be seen in Cubase. However, I can' t hear the vocals when playing back the track. Could this be due to the way that...
