Things are getting better, but it mixes to one track I've now managed to get the VF-16 to send tracks to my computer, just by getting the latest EWS-88D drivers (posted last week on the Terratec site) and telling Samplitude to record after I press Play on the VF-16. The trouble is, everything...

Can't get this to work, although I've checked all the drivers and and cables and software and VF-16 setup several times. I've seen several references to synching the VF-16 and the software so the VF-16 is master and the software is slave. Does this mean that I have to have the VF-16 and the...

More details on transferring files with ADAT? Could someone provide more details about transferring "programs" form the VF-16 to a computer using ADAT?J. Corliss mentions pressing Play on the VF-16 and then Record. Does he mean Record in the software? Trying to do this with my setup, using a...

Does anyone have experience using a VF-16 and GigaSampler together? I'm considering buying an ADAT sound card and Gigasampler with the following goal in mind: I would like to load samples into GigaSampler, then use them while playing a keyboard connected to my PC, at the same time recording the...

I'm new to recording keyboards and thus may have a very elementary question: Since the sound of a keyboard is partly dependent upon the size of the cones in the speakers, to get a good recording of the piano sound from a keyboard,is it best to mic the speakers, just as you mic a guitar...

ADAT sound card (for JVDW) Thanks for the input about using an ADAT card. Do you know the make of the card you mention and if it has ADAT out as well (so you can move the wav files back to the VF-16)? (Is it the Frontier card?) I didn't understand your reference to 3X8. Does this mean you move...

About LeoT's suggested Panasonic 509 Are you sure this is the correct make and model number? I couldn't find a 509 listed anywhere on Panasonic's web site. Regardless, why do you prefer it to other burners?

This is for Track Rat, but may interest anyone wanting to move .wav files from the VF-16 to a computer for further editing: Matt Suzuki at Fostex wrote today to tell me that you can move 8 entire tracks at once to a PC using Frontier Audio's WaveCenter PCI card. This card would greatly simply...

I appreciate the information about sending a .wav file to a PC via the S/PDIF port. But does anyone know if there is a way to get .wav files to the pc without mixing everything down to stereo? I'd like to move all the tracks to a pc and use CoolEdit or something similar for editing. With...

Again, it seems we have waded into uncertainties about how to back up data and how to move data to a PC for burning a CD. Maybe it's time that we list what we know to be true and what we still need to know: We know that: 1.You can use a ZIP or JAZ drive to back up "programs"songsdata. 2.You...

Several questions for those of you who own a VF-16. Everyone seems to agree that you can route data through the SCSI port to a ZIP drive. Anyone know if you can also use the SCSI port to route data to a stand-alone CDRW? Do you have to format a ZIP disk from the VF-16? If so, and yes I know...

I would like to buy a VF-16, but hestate over the issue of how to move data to a PC. Has anyone found the answer to the essential question, can you just plug the VF-16 directly into a SCSI port in a PC? And then burn to a CD on a CDR unit in the PC? If so, what kind of SCSI port is on the...
