Can someone tell me exactly why Instrument Definitions even exist in Cakewalk? I hooked up a Korg 01/W (MIDI Out) to my computer (MIDI In), imported the Korg 01/W Instrument Definitions Bank into my project; & played. My Sound Module (Roland JV-1010) played it's own version of the Korg sounds. I...

Has anyone had any luck with, or heard any feedback on MusicCity.com? I had been very disappointed when Vitaminic.com ended their "Pay For Play" service, as there aren't that many good artist community sites out there in cyberspace that provide compensation for individual compositions (by Indie...

People, I'm still having a problem with external synchronization; & I apologize for the length of this post, but I'm armed with better input this time; & so I'm hoping to get this finally nailed down. I need to perfectly synchronize my Fostex VF-16 with a PC based sequencer (Cakewalk Pro Audio...

How many really good 3rd Party Distribution sites are there out there (& what are their URL's)? I had read (in Electronic Musician) that "Vitaminic" offered "pay for play" for individual songs. After visiting the site & reading the FAQ's, I'm not so sure. I'm really disappointed at the lack...

Regarding the sequence of the submission process, has the annoncement for the submission deadline been made; is it forthcoming...or did I just flat-out miss it? Thanks. mark4man

With the MOTU 828 Audio Interface, is audio processing accomplished within the stand-alone unit, or does it work via PCI, like a standard soundcard? If the converters are outside of the PC, how fast is it (I've heard that stand-alone audio interfaces are known for high latency, but this is...

People, Since I have replaced my primary drive & reloaded my Creative software (running SB Audigy Platinum EX), while recording (& sometimes during playback) CWPA9 jumps into an audio malfunction that can only be described by comparing it to the sound of a tape drive in fast-forward with the...

To my ear, the highest quality rock / pop vocal recordings have always been chorused. George Martin used the technique quite a bit with The Beatles. Other good examples would be "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" by Elton John, "Synchronicity" by the Police, "Sentimental Lady" by Fleetwood Mac, etc...

My primary drive & OS are beginning to crap out; & my sound card's hdwe effects are becoming unstable (that is...I think the two are related, but if not, I'm swapping drives anyway; & upgrading to XP.) I need to complete & upload one tune to my site prior to this task; & normally the method I...

I hope this is the correct forum for custom built recording equipment (if not, please move me, Mr. Moderator.) After weeks of research on the internet & in custom computer shops, I happened to be browsing around CompUSA; & stumbled upon their "Custom Built" program. Although they would not...

Does CWPA9 work in Win XP? My main drive is getting noisy & slow; & I want to replace it. I could load my Dell proprietary Win 98SE OS back in, but I thought I might want to go to XP at this time. Not even sure if it's a good idea for me, in that I'm running a PIII 700Mhz (& I've heard that XP...

Need some help from some senior members. Cakewalk Pro Audio 9 is droppin' out like crazy. My sound card is the Audigy. I have done the audio optimization thing, but that's not correcting the problem. I would like to defrag, but (& please don't laugh here...), I have heard that it somehow...

For any Cakewalk & Audigy users out there: Can someone walk me through a simple signal flow chart between the app & the Surround Mixer? Wave/mp3 out & Record Source in Surround Mixer; & the Output Buss in Cakewalk, all affect my recorded signal (in Cakewalk), but I'd like to know how (& at what...

In my sequencing software (Cakewalk Pro Audio 9), I mix several audio tracks into a .wav file (Cakewalk calls the process "Mixdown Audio to File".) The levels are all just right. When I open the .wav file in Sound Forge (v4.5), the waveform is incrediblly fat, with the upper & lower extremes...

In Cakewalk (Pro Audio 9), I mix several audio tracks into a .wav file ("Mixdown Audio to File".) The levels are all just right. When I open the .wav file in Sound Forge (v4.5), the waveform is incrediblly fat, with the upper & lower extremes clipped off. Thing is...it sounds fine!, just a...

For any Cakewalk users out there with Creative SB Audigy Platinum ex: w/ the Coax S/P DIF & Optical S/P DIF on the external drive; I just today noticed [after having purchased Toslink Optical cable w/ the intent of transferring digital tracks from my modular hard disc recorder (Fostex VF-16) to...

I would like to be able to collaborate musically with a freind that had a Mac computer given to him. I am running Cakewalk Pro Audio 9 on a Win98SE system. Are there any Digital Audio Notation-Based Sequencing applications around that are compatible to both platforms? Or, what exactly would be...

I have been using Cakewalk (Pro Audio 9) for 2+ years. In that time, I have went through 5 major sound card mfg.'s; & continue to have problems with digital audio sequencing (lately it's dropouts...despite the fact that my current sound card is assigned an IRQ of it's own; & I have made all of...

I know this is a neophyte type question; but is it possible to transfer 8 simultaneous audio tracks from the VF-16 to a Digital Audio Sequencing app (in this case, Cakewalk Pro Audio 9) via a Creative Audigy Drive Optical SP/DIF without utilizing ADAT Sync? Thanks. mark4man

I've noticed that editing audio (in CWPA9) over time, tends to cause dropouts. I have the feeling that deleted clips aren't actually deleted; or that system memory is holding on to data, because if I save & shut down the app & restart, I run just fine for awhile. Is this a system; or a Cakewalk...
