I'm a newbie too but I think this is what you want to do...first open Cool Edit then on one of the tracks I think u right click and go to insert then insert by audio video etc....whichever u'r beat music is at...then after that's entered on another track click R where there's R S M I think......R is for record I think...then at the bottom there's a RED RECORDing button click that and it will start recording and playing u'r beats at the same time.....hope this helps you
