    I've got pops on my CD that weren't there before.

    I just burned some wav. files and an mp3 file to a CDR the other night. I am positive that the files did not contain any pops but when I play the Cd I get a pop right when a new track begins. Where is this coming from? What did I do wrong? The first time I burned a CD with my new CDR drive...

    Remix of "Wait and See" - Tucci plays engineer

    Ok, I remixed my song "Wait and See" directly from my four track to my hard drive and used Goldwave to try and get rid of some of that offensive hiss. I also did some other things and panned and eq'd a little differently. I even goofed around with Goldwave's reverb a little bit (it's kind...

    The elusive "Perfect Cut"

    Here is a quandary I run into all the time when I record. I'll put down say a fingerstyle acoustic guitar track and I'll listen to it and think, "hmm, that sounds pretty darn good, I like it." Then I'll listen to it again and think, "hmmm...it actually isn't perfect, I think I can lay down a...

    Why does my soundcard seem to amplify certain frequencies?

    Ok, I take my four track mix and adjust faders eq etc. so that my mix is sounding good through my monitors and headphones. I then leave all these settings right where they are, carry my four-track downstairs, plug it into my soundcard and record the mix. I then listen to the mix that I just...

    dynamics processing with Gold Wave has me confused.

    I am trying to learn how to use goldwave to edit my stereo mixes. The dynamics processing feature kind of has me confused. I don't understand how to use the little box with the movable lines in it. I read the help section on it but it didn't help very much. Say I want to compress a piece -...

    Did I make a boo-boo?

    I just bought a brand new CD-R drive from ebay for about $100. Apparently it comes with installation software. The auction was almost over and people I had asked said that a new CD-R drive costs about $230 so I bid really quickly. I found out that I got it and then some previously unthought...

    Why is Paul stuck singing in Left Channel?

    I've noticed that in older recordings (like the Beatles) certain tracks are panned all the way to the left or right. It sounds kind of cool. Was there a special reason for this and why isn't it done on most recordings today? What are the pros and cons of recording in this style? Tucci

    why so Quiet?

    While mixing down to my stereo casette deck I make sure that my recording levels are peaking at about 3db. When I play the tape back however I have to turn the volume knob up an unusual amount to get a good listening volume. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for any help. Tucci

    Really need some tutoring on dbx and Dolby
