look, alan douglas has cashed in on this legacy for long enough, don't lose any sleep over it. there is a real lesson here, remember that jimi hendrix died broke because slimy people in the recording industry ripped off his music (he signed a lot of contracts that got him in trouble later in his...

We have made some progress with the band, home studio, etc. and have some material recorded on 4-track. I have been experimenting with "cool edit" (thanks drstawl for the recommendation) and have a few mp3's, the sound quality improves with each session. A couple of questions: 1)new...

drstawl, whats your email? or i sent 2 mp3's friday to dragon at this server. (I'm reluctant to put my internal email on the web but will reply to individuals!) I'm currently trying to understand sonic foundry software, once I get the FX "plug-ins" working I'll be on my way, I'm trying to buy...

yeah the cord is stereo. the problem was the ms sound recorder kept defaulting to 8bit mono. after several attempts I found the control panel/multimedia drivers and got it to work. I encoded a couple of items using pcm 44,100Hz, 16bit, stereo protocol. Then I used right-click mp3 (very cool) to...

last night I tried to encode a .wav file using the standard windoze sound recorder. here's the problem: it will only record in mono-- I went to radio shack and bought a 1/8" minijack to 2 rca-pin cable, running from the line in on my laptop (dell e/w sound blaster pro "compatible" soundcard)...

Greetings, I would like to find a s/w program to make mp3's on my dell laptop. It has a "sound blaster pro compatible" sound card, mic in and line input. I have a little tascam 4 track and some band equipment and have made some 4-tracks at the house, both the band and some acoustic stuff. What...

Thanks. By playing with the input level to the mixdown deck I am able to get better audio level; I was afraid to do this because the tascam levels are so touchy. Also now that I've paid off my share of the PA I'll go but a $100 condenser mic for the next session. (If I can borrow the ovation...

I don't have any "monitors", I run the tascam line out into the sony dual cassette. I tried directly to the tape line input of the preamp, and the level is better. Of course I set the input level of the sony dual (i.e. mixdown) deck. All of the levels are set so that at the loudest does not...

Greetings, I'm making some progress but still experimenting. Having trouble with "low audio" levels- left: ovation into a fender superchorus amp, an SM57 6" away into track 1(pan all the way left) right: my D-28 acoustic into SM57 into PA, antother SM57 into tascam414 track 2(pan right). Using a...

okay, can I get a 128Kbs encoder? The cash goes into PA, mic's stands & cords, etc. Someday I will probably go to a Alesis ADAT or some type of CD burner. As time/money permits- Is it feasible to use this free laptop, or are with stuck with analog?

Greetings, looking for some advice. I would like to connect the line out from my tascam 414 to the external minijack on my pc (tech details: dell latitude cp laptop e/w Sound blaster pro-compatible, stereo line-in minijack & mic-in minijack). I downloaded music match jukebox 4 from mp3.com, it...
