Hello, About a year and 1/2 ago, my wife's students recorded a bunch of midi only songs (using Kurzweil PC88, US-224 and Cakewalk HomeStudio). I converted all the midi tracks to audio and then created the wav files and then created a CD. Now, I want to do it again and I seemed to have...

Hello, I have an Dell Inspiron laptop that came standard with a ESS maestro PCI type soundcard that seems to have a wdm based midi driver installed. When I launch HS2002 (just installed) it says no midi output selected. I go to the midi input output screen and there are no inputs to choose...

Hello, I am new at this so I don't expect any detailed answers -- maybe "look here in the help files" or "read this web article at ..." would be a good enough answer for now. I was playing with a new project and was trying to record a midi track and then record an audio track and I realized I...

Hello, We just switched from cakewalk 3.0 on a windows 3.1 machine (haven't really used it in a while) to Home studio 2002. My first impression was that major upgrades do not always mean major improvements in usability (at the moment I think the track view in 3.0 makes more sense than the...

Can you directly have a mic into the 224 (no need for preamp)? I looked at the tech specs, but being a newbie I wasn't quite sure. I am deciding between the tascam 224 and the maudio audiosport quatro usb. It seems if you read the reviews some people love them and some hate the maudio. Kevin

I just bought cakewalk home studio 2002 and I am setting up my wife's PC. I was planning on getting a mutlitrack recorder, but I may just use the PC as a multitracker to save some money in the short term. Questions: 1.) Probably will be 90% midi -- can I get by with recording from the...

I used to have a old fostex 4-track cassette record now I want to get started again (actually my wife will use it more). What we have: 1.) PC88MX Midi Keyboard controller 2.) Cakewalk 2002 Homestudio (we have cakewalk 3.0 but are upgrading) 3.) Acoustic Piano / Guitar / Banjo 4.) Dell desktop...
