from the newbie thread, or forum: Hi. I'm Billy. I'm not exactly a newbie, but shall we say, a really slow learner? I have a fairly old computer, but it's adequate. the guy who put it together for me suggested not going on the net for fear of bugaboos. so I haven't. it has no card to hook up...

I've read a lot of comments saying how bad it is. why is it so bad? well, in particular, for a demo, is it really all that bad? I have some tracks that get too loud in spots and need to be sort of...... evened out. is 'normalizing' even the right term to use? sorry for my newbie ignorance...

howdy all. would audacity be as good for editing as the old cool edit pro? I can't find a legit copy of cool edit pro anywhere. I have a friend/partner in the music recording/charitable organization bizness(s) who thinks I need cool edit pro 2.0 the charitable subsidiary is bringing in more...

I apologize if this is in the wrong place. I am using cubasesx3, or trying to :) can I come right out of my tube screamer into the RCA input(s) of an audiophile2496? thanks for any feedback. cheers! Bill

Hi all. I recently found out from some nice folks here and on the reaper forum that my cpu is likely not powerful enough for digital audio. it's one of those 'atom' things in a small net top. anyway, surely I can record a bunch of midi tracks and have them on standby for the 'someday' nice...

well, I'm certainly not a newbie. I'm an oldbie. but if I manage to record and mix a CD with a decent PC and some fairly idiot proof software, it will be a new experience. so, the term noob applies after all, yes. to give an idea, I really liked the OLD Cool Edit Pro. the first one, by...

Hi All. this model of fostex recorder was recommended by a friend as a good demo tool. which, it likely is. I was curious what you guys on the fostex forum thought of it. only 8 tracks is not so bad a thing. from reading the manual, it seems as if the stereo outputs are the only outputs. it...

has anyone tried this stuff? I'm curious. it's free and all, so no piracy issues. but what's the catch? there must be one.

sorry to crossthread here. was just curious if anyone has played around with audacity. it is apparently unconditionally free...gotta be a catch there.

is anyone still using that? I always liked it. I had a cracked copy, and my basically do-gooding ways caused me to destroy it. it's just not right to bootleg stuff. it was loaded on the PC, but that is now in the landfill as well. is there any way of buying a new or used CD of the original...

I searched for this. I really did! couldn't find an exsisting thread that was relavent. I am watching and sort of involved in a friendly debate in another forum which is more focused on PC's rather than using them for recording. One guy is hammering me about how much cheaper the socket ....I...

Hi All... I've been on and off of here many times trying to find my way into the world of home recording. Technology and the apparent trend for virtually EVERY one and every thing to be owned by one gigantic worldwide corporation have left me in the weeds...... What is the absolute worst case...

Hi All! Is anyone using this beastie yet in computer recording projects? From what I can find surfing the 'NET' there are a lot of hardware and software formats that are not yet ready to make full use of the 64. Would anyone care to shed some Illumination on that afore mentioned statement...

Hi All....I was wondering if a garden variety burner would suffice..... and it occurs to me that different burners may be more compatible with various cpu's motherboard etc...... I have an elite motherboard, nuthin fancy and a 1GIG AMD cpu. any thought on CD burners much appreciated. thanks...

Hey All...... I got some great tips about gear on the CEP forums. If anyone here is into CEP, what is your favorite PC configuration? I'm thinking AMD Athlon/ 512RAM/ 2 80 Gig HD's with 8000cache each at 7200RPM........ but, what brand of HD's?? duh.....there's a boatload to choose from. so...

I'm sorry if that sounds dumb, but I'm curious. Since Cool Edit has it's own mixer in the software, and on screen looking very much like a board...... why would I need an external board to record and or mixdown using CEP? Oh....I plan to record everything one track at a time myself if that...

I have an Audigy2Z5 $100.00 or best offer also have an old Yamaha AX44 that needs 2 bays in a PC. $300.00 or best offer....... Thanks! Bill

Hi All! I have a friend who owns a 2488. I'm trying to convince him it's a boat anchor. In my opinion, that is. maybe some folks like the 2488. I saw one go for $885.00 on Ebay today. I am trying to get a ball park idea what to expect in terms of resale value on a barely used 2488. Anybody...
