Hmmm..... it looks like Dintymoore's solution is the most feasible for my current equipment list but as he says, it would get pretty complicated. I would have to add my Boss GT-3 processor pedal along with my ART SGE Mach II to my current rig- the Digitech RP1000. The GT-3 would have to run...

Does anyone know of an effects expression pedal that will allow you to manually pan left to right and right to left by moving the pedal up and down? For example, pressing down on the pedal would move the sound left in the stereo spectrum and moving it upwards would move the sound to the right...

Although I'm posting this as a new thread, it is actually a continuance of my last thread about lightning destroying my computer and STAudio DSP24 soundcard. I was never able to find a replacement DSP24 and bought a new Focusrite Saffire Pro 40 firewire interface. This interface only uses ASIO...

Nope, I don't have a power conditioner (something I'm seriously considering for our band's PA system after tripping circuit breakers at one of our last gigs). I had good surge protector in place but it didn't cover the internet cable. Now I have an APC battery backup that has surge protection...

Now you've got me going back to my old budget troubleshooting ways! I got out the old multitester and tried to find some shorted capacitors. I got excited when 2 of them tested inboard with no resistance in either direction but when I removed one of them, it acted as it should- some conductance...

Dear dgatwood, Would that compatibility were just the issue! I'd simply get another ASUS P3B-F MOBO. The DSP24 is a 5 volt card but I don't think the problem is incompatibility with the new MOBO- the 3.3 Volt standards are keyed oppositely of the 5 volt standard- it simply wouldn't fit (I...

After a lightning strike took out the southbridge of my old ASUS board, it also fried my DSP24. I really liked this card that I used in conjunction with the DAC/ADC 2000 breakout box, but now I can't find a decent place to buy a new card. I guess Hoontech/STaudio is out of business? I bought a...

The Tascam 788 I bought used keeps stopping in the middle of a recording. The record/play lights go out and the channel record red lights start flashing, indicating that it has returned to record standby mode. I strongly suspect a faulty power supply because even before I got it off Ebay the...

Yes, I took an old AccuSTAR 2 video card out of my P2 computer and replaced the Geforce with it in this computer. I only have VGA mode now but the characters are all correct and the screen doesn't go blank. I guess it's time for a new card. Thanks again for your help.

Yes, I'm pretty certain it's my Creative Labs Geforce video card that's the problem. My MOBO doesn't have onboard video so I can't check it that way. I've had problems with this card ever since I made my first internal hardware change 6 years ago. Immediately afterwards the video wouldn't come...

When I boot my PC, I now get a bunch of incorrect characters starting at the BIOS startup screen. After the PC goes through the first usual sets of screens (all with the wrong characters) I can't get into Windows. This has happened to me a bunch of times since I've had the PC (six years) but it...

Yes, but your keyboard keys are press and release, right? The Behringer and the ART aren't. With Sonar I'm able to make Rewind work by pressing 'W' on my PC keyboard, but that's press and release, too. I've looked through the documentation on both the ART and Sonar and I haven't seen anything...

I wrote to Behringer about this. This is the reply they gave: 'Dear Brian Ferrell, Thanks for writing. The FCB1010 can only a MIDI message when the pedal is depressed. To send a second message, such as you would need for your rewind "release", you would need to program a second preset. This...

Thanks- will check it out.

Can anyone recommend a midi foot pedal that I can use with Sonar 2.2 to control the basic transport commands, i.e., Stop, Play, Record, Rewind? I have an ART X-11 pedal that works fine for the first 3 commands but won't work with Rewind because that needs to be configured with a pedal that, when...
