Hi guys, i'm building a midi controller for my final year project(i'm studying electronic engineering). One of my target applications for this was protools, however protools won't accept anything less than a HUI controller. Does anyone know where i might get a detailed HUI specification...

Hi, I've got a digi 001 in my setup at home. I'm having problems getting direct sound going. Most noticeably when i try to run adobe premiere, where the program won't run at all because it can't find an appropriate audio device. In the documentation digidesign recommend a separate sound card...

Hi, This is my first post in a while, i'll try not to make it too long-winded.... I'm having trouble with my protools system, more specifically i can't write good midi drum sequences on the goddam thing. Am I missing something or is the 'keyboard' type layout frustratingly difficult to...

Hi all, I'm trying to convert some mp3's to wma in Cool Edit but I keep getting an error message when doing the batch convert. It goes along the lines of : ' Cannot convert, file in use by another application, close down (said) application and try again'. The thing is I have no other...

I've just got a pro-tools mx-001. Suprisingly I've not had any troble getting to grips with the protools end of things(yet) it's integrating it into my other kit that's the problem. I have a spirit folio F1, 6-channel mixer that I want to use to route my mic signals as it's got preamps and a...

1)How exactly do sequencers work? 2)How would I use a sound module such as the EMU planet earth in conjunction with a pc sequencer?3) Would I need a high spec pc for such an operation or would a 10gig hd, 64mb ram, built in sound card pc do? p.s. I'll understand if you need a couple of weeks to...

Is it possible tp connect an FD-4 to and Adat using the digi i/o on the Fd-4. I connected the FD-4 to my uncle's Alesis adat for mixing but It would only transfer the left and right channels. I couldn't transfer individual tracks which defeated the point of using the adat. The Fostex FD-4 manual...

I have a fostex fd-4. I want to transfer the data from the fd-4 onto a gateway 2000,p166, 2.4gig hd, 64-bit ram. I've been told that I can do this provided I have a good souncard. I have an sb16 at the moment I was recommended to get a turtlebeach taiti so far I haven't been able to find one...

I want to upgrade my porta02 to something a little more flexible. I want to do some decent quality demos for my band and would need a couple of mic inputs (the 424). But I also want to do some high quality demo recording for my own music which is mostly just guitar and vocals and wouldn't be...

I'm looking to convert my p.c. into a digital multitracker. I've read the digital article on this site but I need more specific info. My p.c. is a Gateway 2000 with a pentium 166 processor, about a 3.5 gig hardrive, 16mb of ram (Can upgrade to 64 mb's). Software is no problem. I was wondering if...

Geeman here . I'm fairly new this is only about my 4th post. I'm trying to record a 4 piece guitar band on a tascam porta 02 ministudio. My problem is synchronization: I recorded the lead and rhythm guitars on 2 separate tracks then I put the bass over them on a 3rd track and vocals on a 4th. I...

Geeman here. I was wondering do analog recorders use regular cassette tapes or is there a special type of tape you have to get to record on a multitracker? It's a pretty stupid question but I'm one step away from buying a Tascam porta02 and I'm pretty well informed about it's specs etc. but I...

I'm a total amateur to the world of home recording. I'm anxious to learn about it to help me to fine tune my songwriting (electric guitar, acoustic guitar, vocals, piano) As I'm in a band I'd like to be able to write/record the rythym and lead guitar for our songs, the vocals and bass...
