I've finished editing an interview I recorded initially on multitrack view and mixed down (cut bits out, did some NR and compressing, and am now happy with the result)...BUT... I now want to add a bit of talking at the end after the interview formally finishes, and put some intro music in...

Look, this is ridiculously basic of me, but I've forgotten this stuff after an intensive 2 months using CEP a couple of years ago. If someone could remind me in simple terms, would be most appreciative... I've recorded an interview that is going to be mixed down to MP3 format for a podcast...

I'm editing an interview I did recently, which will end up on my blog as a podcast. I used an omnidirectional mike placed in the centre of a table, and there were 4 interviewees sitting around at varying distances from the mike, and speaking at varying volumes. The recording levels were...

Been away from Cool Edit Pro for too long! I've forgotten some basics.:o I have a recorded interview on CD that I want to put into Cool Edit Pro to edit and mix down in MP3 format to post on my blogsite as a podcast. I can't work out how to actually get the recording on the CD into Cool Edit...

I have some old rehearsal cassette tapes of original songs I've transferred to my HD and have been messing around with in CEP. I am trying to discern the lyrics, but the vocals are way down, submerged beneath an onslaught of rehearsal room din of distorted guitar, drums etc. Is there any sort...

Yeah! Thanks to you guys, I have finally completed my punk history/archiving project. I'm chuffed, feedback has been good, but this moozic is almost certainly not your cup of cha. Nevertheless, since you guys and others helped drag me out of the woods of profound HD recording ignorance by the...

Just wondering, if I installed CEP on my laptop, could I use the laptop for HD recording? My desktop computer has a pretty good soundcard (Audigy 2 Platinum Soundblaster), and I believe laptops generally don't. However, for the purposes of, say, recording an LP to digital format using CEP...

Not sure if this question is appropriate in this section, or even on this BB, but let's see... I have an old but good quality Sony hifi amp - was once top of the line. The attenuator pots and balance pots now need replacing, as they are noisy, and I have been told that most of the joints are...

As might be gleaned by the terminologically challenged title to this post, I have NO IDEA about the sorts of effects boxes or whatever that I am seeking, or even what to call them. I am currently recording to HD using Cool Edit Pro, and have been miking a telecaster played through an old MXR...

Anyone know what this bass guitar is, pls? Would be much obliged... Cheers

I have just digitised some old analogue recordings I did on a Tascam multitrack 12 years ago, and some of the songs are mixed a bit light in the bass. Any tips for enhancing the bass a bit in Edit while not affecting the rest of the mix appreciably prior to mixdown? The mix is fixed and the...

I have just finished with a crop of songs and want to free the space on my HD occupied by the CEP files for these songs. Is it a simple matter of saving all files as data to a CD, or do the wav files have to be saved as music? Hopefully, I can just put all songs in their separately titled song...

I know you can back up drum patterns and songs to cassette tape, but can you back up from the drum machine to your computer HD instead? If so, how is this done, please? Cheers Ross

I've been experimenting with recording stuff in the red, peaking in the red, peaking just outside the red etc, and have ended up with most of my current crop of songs being more in the red than out of it. It sounds upfront and loud on CD, and that's what I wanted, no pops or audible distortion...

This is no doubt another very basic question, so apologies for boring the bejaisus out of you again. OK. You've done a mixdown that you've saved and like, but burning to CD and listening again, you realise there needs to be just a bit of adjustment (the case to which I am referring is a...

Does anyone know of a CD burning program that allows you to record a music track from a file on your HD and listen to it on a usual hifi CD player setup, yet keeps the session open so you can later record other tracks to the same CD? (CD-RWs are not an option, because my hifi CD player won't...

I've been adding bass parts in CEP to multi-track analogue recordings done a decade ago, and have been getting good, gutsy end-product remasters on CD. Problem is, I have recently recorded 2 songs from scratch in CEP, with the same wall-of-sound distorted guitar, basic root-chord-hugging bass...

One of my projects at the moment is transferring to CD some old, very poor quality tapes of some 77/78 bands rehearsing their original songs under extremely primitive recording conditions (ie: a single, cheap mike for a whole band, connected to a portable cassette player!). Of course, the...

Thought I had just about exhausted my basic questions, but here's another couple. 1. If you make a mistake naming a track in Multiview or want to rename a track/tracks for some reason, can you do it? No doubt a simple matter, but I can't work it out. 2. I am finding that when in Edit and...

I'm compiling a CD of old 77/78 punk songs I re-recorded over a decade ago, then using a Tascam 4track. Most of them didn't have bass recorded, so I've added bass now using Cool Edit Pro, and am currently in the process of mixing down and burning to CD. I can't figure out WHY I get some songs...
