    Long Time (Old) SONAR Man needs Drum Sampler help

    MIXSIT decided to go w/ Kontakt...I have version 5; & the default player looks like it has a fairly simple process to assign clips, velocity scaling & all dat.

    Monitor Upgrade...Rockit8's to 20/20's or NS-10M-T's...???

    hello again... the problem: my KRK Rockit8's have absolutely no bottom. for years now I've had to rely more on auditioning my bounced mixes on various stereo systems than on studio monitoring.

    Birds & Ringing in my Piano Tracks (???)

    what the heck... seems like all digital pianos are guilty of this phenomenon...which I (THINK) are BEAT FREQUENCIES...whereby there is an annoying overtone created that sounds like chirping, new born birds in a nest. sometimes, I find myself cutting the output to listen for my cell phone, which...

    Hip Hop Songwriter/Song-Creation Software...any such animal...???

    friends... most of the artists into my studio over the last two years are rappers. what they always seem to do is bring mp3's from youtube & expect to overdub vocals on top (i know, i know). recently, I aquired Band-in-a-Box 2012...& realized that if there were more hip hop & rap styles, I...

    WAX files do not open in Windows Media Player...Windows 7

    asx didn't work either. I changed the music files all over to *.mp3...& the metafiles (pointers) to *.m3u...& they all work fine. the only reason I went w/ *.wma's at all is that sound fractionally better than an *.mp3...but not so much so that it outweighs causing a problem for my visitors...
