The SB Live isn't a bad card really, but it's not made for recording either. Whether you will be happy with the results depends on what you are expecting. I'm not completely familiar with the Zoom505, but unless it is made for direct recording like the POD, the guitar sound you get running...

Fear of a Black Planet is great. BTW, what do they call those guys that fill in on certain words only? Know what I mean? If we say rappers aren't singers, then would those guys be called backup rappers?

I think the POD would be a good choice for you. I'm not sure about the differences between the two versions, but I think you can upgrade to the 2.0 version from Line6, so you might check to see which way would be cheaper. Anyways, I'll let someone who's done that comment about it. I've...

lol. You're right Wally, and that's what I was thinking as I wrote that. I just said it wrong. I gotta start reading my replies before I hit Submit.

I answered this in the other place you posted it (not a good idea to duplicate your posts) but have since thought of something else, so I'll post it here cause I don't feel like going to look for the other one again. In the SBLive mixer there's a recording option on the left side that let's...

Since you mentioned they aren't really monitors, you might have somewhat of a tough time. One thing you can do is listen to pro recorded stuff that is similar to your music through those monitors until you get a good idea of how they make stuff sound, how they color the sound in other words...

The only thing I can think of concerning the 100s of songs and a CD thing is that there are some CD players out there now that play MP3s off a CD. Then you could do it like that. You have to have one of those players though, it's not a function of the way you create the disc, but of extra...

Have you tried this and it didn't work already? Is your soundcard full duplex? Probably is, unless it's quite old, or very cheap. It will have to be full duplex for you to playback and record at the same time. When you go in the Multimedia control panel what's listed as the devices for...

The quality is significantly diminished on a TV as opposed to a monitor. Don't plan on reading any text from across the room and it might work for ya. Also remember the max resolution you are probably gonna get is 800x600, and you could be stuck at 640x480 depending on the card you buy. I've...

There are several close to that price range you should at least check out before you buy one. It also depends on what capabilites you want/need. (number of inputs and outputs, 24bit capability, etc.) I like the Midiman Delta and the Gina/Darla cards. I have a Delta card and it's great...

I see from the website where they make an Italian version for Acid, but not Sound Forge. I would take that English version tutorial and use one of the net-based translators and see if it comes out readable at all. You never know, might work.

I personally think SoundForge is about the same level as CoolEdit... so if you're not happy with that you might want to save your money. You can download the Sound Forge 5.0 Beta from the sonic foundry website address SPIN gave and see it for yourself. If you are spending money, consider...

If $200 isn't medium budget to you, then you can get a great pair of Sony's for around $90. MDR-750x Several models that start with MDR-750 in that price range. I don't think you'd go wrong with anything that's been mentioned thus far though.

I didn't think much of Andy Summer's playing until I starting learning a few Police songs several years ago. Most of it wasn't as easy as he made it sound.

Both of those are good. I'll say Van Halen, cause his rhtyhm playing gets overlooked due to the rest of his playing. I've never heard anyone play rhythmic stuff on acoustic like Doyle Dykes. Makes me wanna puke to see him do on one guitar live what I would have trouble doing with two guitar...

If you want to burn the CD from a computer CD-R, you will have to mix down to a wav file on the computer, then burn the CD. The wav format itself won't hurt the quality, but the quality of the soundcard will matter. I don't have a standalone CD recorder like the Phillips one you mentioned, but...

Does the card have jumpers on it? If you changed the resource settings in Windows, but it has hardware jumpers for those settings on the card, then it won't work obviously. I had an old ISA sound card like that once with jumpers. Only hard part then would be figuring out where to move the...

If Windows and the burner software recognizes the drive, then just as you said, the settings are probably right. It sounds like you have gone through most things to troubleshoot this already. It might just be that the drive has died. Is it under warranty? If so, then I'd call Plextor to see...

It depends on how you want to copy it... If you have another CD drive in your computer in addition to the burner, you can duplicate the disc without ripping to wav files on your hard drive. However, I prefer to rip everything to wav files, then burn. Less likely to have a buffer underun or...

if you mean CD ripper... It's just a program that takes audio tracks from a CD and turns them into wav files and in some cases will give you the option of compressing right to MP3. There are lots of them out there, and most CD burning software has the capability to do this. I use...
