    Crucifixion - esque Lyrics

    Hello, Anyone know where these come from? Self-loathing grew the tree That I now set down in this ground Flagellation fashioned it Into my burial mound The twisting spear of loneliness at least was something new But I can't crucify myself Without some help from you. I am waste and desolation...

    BlueBear, MassiveMaster - What do you think of the Line6 stuff?

    And any other gurus I so rudely forgot to mention - OK - we all know that a properly miced cabinet a one hundred and twenty uber-decibels will blow the Pod/Vetta out of the water, but do you think that Line6 - Pod stuff can - 1. Be disguised to fit into a "commercial quality" CD? 2. Sucks and...

    SIR v1.005 and Sonar

    Hello Peoples, I have been converted to SIR as a reverb tool and really like the results I am getting. Latency, my current bug-bear of choice, seems to be really killing me. Using SIR on a bus being fed from a couple of sends means I have to turn my latency up from 2.2msec to about 30msec for...

    Anyone using an Aardvark card and Sonar 3.1.1?

    Well - are you? How would you rate the stability of your system comparing 3.0 to 3.1.1? I feel like I am getting HEAPS of driver related IPF's in SONARPDR.EXE And what driver mode are you using ASIO or A|WDM? (And does the "A" stand for "Attempted" :)) And what latency are you getting? Q.

    CWAF: How long does it take to run?

    Hello, I have recently been converted by Moskus, Porter and other evil ACKUS evangelicals into using Per Project Audio folders with Sonar 3PE. To do so, I guess I now need to use the Cakewalk Audio Finder tool as I have data scattered beyond the reaches of the CLEAN AUDIO DATA command, (if I...

    BUG? Can anyone emulate this one?

    Greetings and Happy New Years all round! I think there is a bug with Sonar PE 3.1 relating to the automation of the Sonitus effects when used on a sub-group bus. If I stick any of the Sonitus effects on a track, I am able to arm a parameter for recording, record my interface tweaks and they...

    Sonar 3.0 - Sound Quality and Demo Files

    Apologies to ChristopherM who has already got a dose of what I am going to bleat on about here......... Anybody played the two large demo files that come with Sonar 3.0 PE?

    Lyric re-use - Royalty Question

    Hello, Say if you wanted to lift someone's lyrics and use them with a different melody over a different chord structure - what hoops would you have to jump through to make it legal? Would it make a difference if you were only looking to use a small part of someone's elses lyric? When does a...

    Rod Stewart - Time After Time

    Hey - Just heard this track from The Greatest American Songbook being played in a record store. Anybody else heard it? Anybody else hear that little cheesy Antares Auto-Tune squeal on some of his high notes? But how did they fix him back in the seventies? Or did people just track it until...

    Pantheon Reverb - As a bus insert

    Hi there, Anyone got any thoughts on this quote from the Pantheon help file - However, the parameter can be used to adjust the wet/dry ratio when the effect is used “in line” and no direct dry signal is sent around the effect. The situation that needs to be avoided is when two direct signals...

    Mixing/tracking approach for combined finger-picking and strummed guitar parts

    Hello Gathered Gurus and Swamis, I can set my compressor quite happily to track my finger picking acoustic guitar parts and I can also set it up to play whatever dynamic games I am looking for in strummed, pad acoustic guitar parts. What I can't get a handle on are tracks that play a...

    Neil Young Alert: After The Gold Rush - Cover

    Hello, I have been playing with this Neil Young song as a physical challenge and mixing exercise. Originally done with piano; that was just too obvious so I had to flare the athritis up finger-picking my way through. http://www.nowhereradio.com/artists/album.php?aid=1746&alid=-1 Check out...

    Anybody had this thing with Sonar?

    Disappearing audio -- I mean, you can see that the tracks are all there -- no track or bus is soloed or muted -- yet you hear nothing at all.... And you have been working away happily for hours..... Sometimes, I can get Sonar to respond by selecting all of the tracks, archiving them all...

    Behringer Composer Pro-XL MDX2600?

    Hi, Anybody using this? I bought one a couple of days ago and I cannot seem to get the peak limiter to play the game. I am confused - is anybody using this and can someone give me a recipe for using this in a PC recording environment. I am going instrument => pre-amp => compressor/limiter --...

    Have you ever made a mix in Sonar that you were TRULY happy with?

    I am talking about "in-the-box" mixing with Sonar. I don't care if you used pre-amps or other hardware odds and sods. So? Have you? And if you vote yes, then two follow-up questions. 1. How long did it take you to get a mix you were truly happy with? 2. How long did it take you to make that...

    How do you use EQ with Cakewalk?

    EQ fascinates me. It is the weird voodoo with which one day I will not f@ck up so many mixes..... In that vein, I pose this question - "How do you use EQ with Cakewalk?" For instance - Are you a Minimalist? - Do you prefer to get it right with recording technique? Are you a Tracker? - Do...

    iZoTope Ozone 3 Released

    Hi all, Don't know if many/any on here use this, but I have found the earlier version of this was pretty good for "mastering" at home for a lot less than the cost of Waves et al. http://www.izotope.com Also got a nice upgrade offer emailled from them which was pretty cheap so I will probably...

    Smack me down and tell me I know nothing

    Howdy, I am getting the shits with this game. I feel like I am getting nowhere fast. Here's my story - I record and mix in the box in a little room upstairs about 1130 cubic feet. I am using Yamaha MSP-10 nearfields with the SW-10 sub-woofer. I have treated my room with traps and fibreglass...
