more on vocals... I just monitor myself dry in the hdphones when I'm singing so I don't rely on verb or anything else & hopefully listen more carefully. At the same time the sound I'm hearing isn't that great - too "close miced/up front", maybe bec I am close Maced & up front - about 6-12...

Hi - I posted & started a thread quite a while bk on whether you should normalize. the concsnsus, as I remember, was don't ever normalize - bec it raises the noise floor or bec it's a render(?). Anyway, some of my tracke & sometimes imported midi files are too quiet even though I record right...

Hi - I wasn't quite sure how to refine a search of the archives... I'm considering a switch to Cubasis. Any opinions/advice? I just need a basic sequencer that's easy to learn. Thanks

If anyone wd listen to my mix I wd appreciate comments: The Taz (the song on top of the list) http://www.soundclick.com/bands/pagemusic.cfm?bandID=74577 I'm not doing any automation. Is that essential for a gd mix? Thanks

Anyone else use the Roland VSC to convert midi to wave? I frequently get a message "audio conversion cannot be started". Other times it works. Thanks

Hi guys - the apartment I'm now in has a noisy refrigerator. I will try carpet samples to dampen the noise but it is what I wd call motor noise as opposed to vibration or parts wearing out. One aspect of it is a Bb note - not sure if that's 60 cycle hum? Radio Shack said to get a line...

Not sure where to post this, but it relates to me being able to play files I create: suddenly I get no sound in Windows Media Player. I can play files in Real Player, so the files are OK. I upgraded to the latest WMP version, the file played, next time I tried it - no sound again. Any ideas? Thanks.

Not sure where to post this: I'm suddenly getting no sound playing wave files in windows media player. I get sound in other applications. Any ideas? Thanks

When I import a midi track I created in Jammer to C.walk GT Pro, it doesn't quite line up w the first measure & leaves a small gap. I can edit it out & slide the track to the beginning but it takes an extra step ea time. the Jammer people didn't think it was caused on their end. Any ideas? Thanks

Hi - I've been using the Edirol VSC for midi sounds. The Hypercanvass is supposed to be better... Anyone use it? does it sound as gd as sound fonts can? Thanks

Either I'm having some brain failure or something has changed in my set up... When I try to figure it out I get confused. Any help wd be appreciated: I route vocals to aux 1&2, 100 % wet, to add verb & delay. The parameter boxes for both the verb & delay I set to 100 % wet also (Cakewalk GTP...

Don't laugh...I've posted to a couple of other forums but I think this is where it belongs: I've been using a basic Cakewalk (GT Pro) for a couple of yrs now w the Edirol UA 5 sound card which has it's own output volume switch. I keep the switch on full & adjust recording input volume at my...

I'm wondering what you guys look for/at in the wave forms of recorded material on the screen. I'm aware of amplitude & clipping...is there more to observe that's helpful? Thanks.

Help!! i'm in the middle of a project using GT Pro 2 &3 and in both programs the input level fader no longer has any effect. I get a signal fr the instrument when set to record even if the fader is all the way down. Nothing is going to the aux sends... Tech support wants me to reinstall but I...

Is there a copyright symbol somewhere on a p.c (XP)? I don't see it in wingding fonts. thanks

I'm listening to the proof of my Cd after mastering & the high end sounds "dull" to me, for lack of a better description. I've also heard the same quality fr certain DAW's like the Boss BR - 8 & even Yamaha AW - 16... I'm wondering if too much compression cd cause this? Another possibility is...

Hi - I just recorded a CD & when I mixed down to wav files, ea of the 4 tracks was about 150 MB. I just got a copy to proof bk fr the duplicating/mastering place & the file size says: 1KB for the shortcut icon & (when I look in "properties") 44 bytes/size on disc=2KB. How can this be? The tech...

I tried to burn a CD & got "write error" w no further explaination & nothing in the help files. The second attempt worked. Anyone know what causes this? Just random? Thanks

Cd someone explain something for me? I am doing the final step for a CD that consists of 5-15 min pieces of music. The blank CD says it will hold 70 MB or 80 min of music. I thought each piece should be the same since they are all exactly 15 min long but so far (I'm converting to wav right now)...

Hi - If I have songs recorded at 16/44 & increase to 24/44 will that adversely affect the songs I've already done (in Cakewalk GTPro)? Is there more audible improvement fr increasing bit depth or sampling? And finally, I have the Edirol UA 5 s. card which says it supports up to 96K sampling...
