I have every question imagineable regarding Drum Pads. I'm doing MIDI work. Pointing and clicking my way through drum tracks. I've tried some of the Looping software available, but I'm not completely sold on it yet. I've been able to tweek my drum tracks on Cakewalk in the event menu to get...

I've been waiting and waiting for "approval" at another site, and finaly gave up! I've loaded my tunes on NowhereRadio.com. http://www.nowhereradio.com/artists/rockpop/fmmahoganyrush/# Now I need some advise. I have some ideas on a re-mix, etc., so I'm looking to compare notes before I do...

OK. I've been looking for some constructive critisism (actually even some wise-ass remarks would probably be humbly welcomed at this point - C'mon Gidge, give me your worst, my skin is toughening up, and if I can't take it, we'll just have to lock horns in the cave) on two tracks I posted. So...

OK, it's common knowledge that since MP3.com has implemented their new "Premium" service, that those of us trying to get along with their "Premium-NOT" service are suffering from, among other thing, EXTREMELY SLOW APPROVAL TIME, whatever the hell there is to "approve". But anyway, it is pretty...

I got some feedback on some music I posted. One problem noted was that there was an audible Hiss on the songs. I recorded the tracks using Cakewalk, and I think the Hiss is on the vocal tracks in the areas where there are no vocals present. An easy enough fix on Cakewalk, because I can scrub...

As the joke goes... ...none, they have machines that do that now. But as far as sequencing drum track on a program like Cakewalk, I've found the results to be less than desirable. There no life in the drum track. No velocity changes, realistic snare rolls are impossible, quick same...

I've remixed these two songs, and posted them on mp3.com, awaiting approval. If anybody could give them a listen, and give me your thoughts on what they need, it would be appreciated. They've come a long way, but, I think they still have a ways to go. I've also loaded them onto my personal...

I'm trying to mix down my MIDI and audio tracks onto two stereo audio tracks. The problem I'm experiencing is that when I play back the two new audio tracks (solo'ed) it appears that the stereo mix has disappeared and has become a mono mix. That's the first problem. Second, I'm trying to run...

I've had nothing but problems with the Lycos Listening Room as far as other people being able to listen and/or download my mp3's from there (but it was worth a try), so I'm looking into mp3.com. The question: If I'm only interested in putting my tunes up on the site for others to listen to...

I realize this is probably something everyone knows already, however, it's been a HUGE stumbling block for me this past month. I've been attempting to upload my first mp3 files, and experiencing all sorts of problems, from servers crapping out on me, to every error message in the book. Many of...

I've been getting loads of e-mails regarding my songs. The overall response has been favorable, however, the big beef that I'm getting is that then someone tries to listen or download the tunes, they get a message that the website is busy. From looking at the stats, it has been busy and my...

Jeez, I thought writing and recording a song was going to be the hard part. I guess it wouldn't be so bad if my only aspirations were to simply play it over and over again to myself. However, I wouldn't mind getting it into the hands of sombody who could do get the thing a little more exposure...

"Love Me 'till Labor Day" got rated, and a good one at that. Thank-you whoever you are. I don't know how that bodes for the other song I posted - which I wrote for and about my wife) I realize I have some work left on the mix (EQ, clipping on vocals, and the stereo aspect/or lack there...

I finally got my first two MP3s uploaded and working somewhat (Thanx to Dr. Shawl's infinite wisdom). They can be found at my webpage: www.nevillemusic.com Also they are available at the Lycos Listening room/unsigned artists, under the band name "Tom Neville" Check them out and let me know...

OK, the first problem is probably obvious... ..I use AOL. I'm using FrontPage to publish my website. All my other files uploaded just fine, until it came to uploading MP3s. They're not HUGE files (4-6MB), but the server keeps shitting the bed before the files are completely uploaded. I've...

RF noise or something else that's gone banana-wacky I've been putting tracks down in my home studio for years now. Yesterday, while trying to put some lead guitar work down, I was plagued with RF noise (or something). The noise would change as I re-positioned my guitar, but was still very...

A Day Late and a Dollar Short I just posted the question regarding the differences from Professional 8 vs PA9. (I just acquired 9 and really don't see much of a difference). Yeah, so I've been ignoring the e-mails I've been getting from Cakewalk about this Sonar thing. I figured it was...

What are the main upgrades made to PA9 from Pro. 8 (other than the fact that it looks a little more fancy on my screen). Note: I'm not talking about "Deluxe" or Pro Audio Suite", although I would like to know what more they have to offer as well.

Does anybody have a real handle on copyright laws? I've read opinions ranging from the ridiculous to the sublime. From "you can be sued for even singing someone else's song in the shower", to "you can record, and sell someone else's song, just as long as you give them credit for writing the...

After ~3 years of editting MIDI files so that they don't sound "cheesy", I'm about ready to take the show on the road. The act consists of me, my voice, my guitar, and a full MIDI accompaniment. I'm looking to put together a P.A system that will be crisp and clean, with "IN YOUR FACE" bass...
