Thanks for the advice Tom and Sonny ....still haven't found a solution though :-(
- when I turn off the wave volume on the "recording" volume controls I lose the sound of the drum track entirely - both when I'm recording and even when I just try to play it back - I'm not sure why this should...
yes, me again - (hope you didn't expect me to start recording flawlessly after my last elementary stuff up?)
Still struggling with adding a guitar track to an imported drum track. When I do so 2 things go seriously wrong (which I've got a feeling are related):
1) The drum track gets...
daweswathis: YOU'VE DONE IT - IT WORKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I clicked the picture of a piano to make it change into a picture of a microphone and now it records fine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you! Thank you! - thanks everyone who posted replies.....
- sorry it was a pretty...
yep SlackM - I've been pressing the red round button
:-) ...everything happens like you said, expept when I press STOP there's still no tracks on the screen. When I quit the program it doesn't even offer to save my session because it thinks that I've done nothing.
I did the Duplex test in...
still nothing
Thanks Slack and getuhgrip....though I still haven't got anywhere
The recording VU meter hears the guitar when I start the recording and the clock, but nothing happens on the n-track mixer meter or on any of the tracks.
When I have no tracks to start off with and I set the...
the mystery deepens
Here's a breakthrough I just made: somehow I managed to open a window which has the "recording VU meters" (like the playback VU meters windown that appears by default) ...and when I select "monitor" then it actually recognises the sound coming from my guitar!!
However, the...
thanks for the prompt reply getuhgrip
no - I didn't have anything selected as a wave input device - so thank you - but now I've got my sound card as both the wav input and output device and it performs the duplex test...but STILL no recognition given as an input
(I'm using a ES1938 (Solo-1)...
hey n-track users
I need serious help: got my hopes up about using my comp. as a studio, installed n-track, imported a fruity loops drum wav file into n-track successfully, plugged my guitar into the computer using my Yamaha MT4x 4-track as a mixer and got it working through the computer...
hey analogue people...
Just wanted to get some feedback on a song I put down on my Yamaha MT4X:
go to www.geocities.com/ziprok
- and the song's "Mummy dies" (my friend's lyrics not mine!), the other 2 songs up there are not really recorded properly
Anyway, any comments would be...
Thanks for the replies guys
Pratt that thread you pointed me to was very useful. I've just about mastered the triplet thing now, although it's certainly not that straight forward. To save people looking it up themselves, here's PeteAnon's advice:
"Select a channel, say your snare, and then...
At the moment I record on an analogue Yamaha MT4X (trying to figure out how I can do it all on my new computer for free...) anyway I got really good sound with fruity loops using some samples piped in from my old Casio keyboard (!)
HOWEVER I have virtually no money at the moment to spend on...

OK HANG ON A SECOND
I want to record from my four-track to a computer, and I connected it up properly and made sure I had a program downloaded that converted .wav s wo MP3s. Then, having read this post I went to download cool edit pro...
Problems: well guys the full version of cool edit is...
I'm very new to recording and have and ANALOGUE 4track (Yamaha MT4X).
But the idea of plugging my 4-track into my computer and recording my own stuff as MP3s appeals to me, especially as I have friends with CD burners.
Firstly how would I convert a big .wav file into an MP3? Is there...
I thought I'd see what the FruityLoops fuss was about, so I downloaded it. I was impressed at how easy it was to use and the options it gave you to change the sound around.
However I was most unimpressed by the samples they had - sounded terrible. So hooked my keyboard up to the computer with...
Thanks for the advice Cliff and jsteele.
Cliff I tried doing what you said and put the riff through two tracks and it did definitely improve things when listening to the song through headphones, but not really through a normal speaker/s.
I really need a THICKER sound from the riff. I think...
I'm a beginner at this: I have a Yamaha MT4X four track, a Fender Squire guitar and a Zoom 505 effects pedal. I've composed this Pearl Jammy (well I wish..) sort of song, and I'm reasonably happy with the sound of the rhythmn guitar I put down. But I want to put this other guitar riff over the...
You guys in the States don't know how lucky you are with prices.
I live in Australia, and everything's more expensive. SM57 microphones, for instance, cost (retail at) $A 350, which is about
$US 230!!
I reckon if I had a credit card, and trusted those guys driving the ships across the...
Excellent, thanks guys. And I'll remember to keep the original tracks like you said, Dom Franco.
Hope my brother won't mind me using his minidisc as much as I think I'm going to!
Thanks for your help Fishmed. But I'm still curious:
What if say I wanted to bounce drums, base, and rhythmn guitar tracks, 3 tracks down to one. Instead of the ususal method, wouldn't I lose less sound quality if I
1) put these on 3 separate tracks, then
2) recorded the "final mix" of these...
