1) Do you have the latest drivers for the software? 2) You haven't indicated whether or not the incoming audio is being transformed, i.e.; are you sure that the distortion you're hearing isn't just occuring during playback. Have you isolated this? 3) Have you tried switching cables? 4)...

I haven't looked into going down the XP route because of the hardware identification that it does. I am perpetually tinkering with my setup and I really don't want to have to deal with Microsoft everytime I decide to change a component in my box. As far as drivers, from what I've read...

I had this exact same problem with Cakewalk 8 and Windows 98. It drove me crazy and I could never find a solution to it. So, I did two things, I bought Sonar and I upgraded to Windows 2000, and voila, problem gone. BTW - I use a Delta44. I believe it was the OS but I don't think I can prove...

I'd advise going to http://www.extremetech.com and reading thru all the articles and research that interest you. There's alot of stuff to cover but you will get very indepth reviews of the latest boards, the RAM the goes into them, and the chipsets they support. My personal experience has led...

I'm using Sonar also... In the Event View, there are a bunch of red and pink lines of text, mostly it seems, Sysx data (of which I know nothing about) and Filters???. I have set up a loop between 25 - 29th measures and when the loop returns, the playback stops at 25. For MIDI IN and OUT, I...

nemal, I'm not at home so I can't check the event viewer until tonight but in answer to your other q's...: I've had this experience with four tracks, each with a different instrument. They will play back usually only a measure, but sometimes I get lucky and they will playback for two. They're...

I've recorded MIDI drum sequences into Sonar. Six tracks, each with different instruments. The problem seems to be that if I create duplicates of the tracks and rearrange the MIDI sequences to create more complex drum patterns and try to play them back, the playback stops right at the...

Matt, RWhite, et. al., So, I've made a couple of switches. I dumped the Win 98 OS and installed Win2K again now that I don't have to run Cakewalk8 anymore. I installed Sonar. I had some problems with the IRQs at first and then I talked with a guy at Cakewalk and he gave me some great info on...

RWhite, I have the problem even if Cakewalk is the only program running, nothing in the systray. Well, I've been doing some talkin' and multiple sources claim its Cakewalk 8 that's the unreliable factor. I've really wanted to do some loop work so I decided that it was time to jump into Sonar...

j: I'd like to ask: You say go in MIDI and use soft synths to create sounds to your liking...? I've been trying to figure out how to get the sounds from my Roland JX-305 into Cakewalk using instrument definitions... I don't know if you use Cakewalk but I haven't had alot of luck with this. My...

Matt: What OS are you running? I'm on Win98b and I've found that this OS is probably worse that any other I've used which would be, all Mac OSs from CE on, all Wins back to 3.1, multiple vs of Unix and Linux, Novell, Atari, Commodore, jeez ;O). It really has alot of resource problems and I...

So Tom... Let me ask you this... Do you have any special techniques or equipment you employ to deal with the noise or are you not as concerned with high end big watt systems replayiong your music? What I'm after is combining guitar with eletronic music which generally has a more pristine sound...

I do have other software on the computer but its a farely fat box. Win98 sitting on a 7200rpm, 1 UltraFast SCSI2 drive for recording, 800MhZ PIII. Matt: I did listen to the artist whose music you suggested and the first thing that I noticed is that its all electonic, probably MIDI. All of my...

My mics are a RODE NT2 and a Beyer Dynamic M300. BTW - As far as the actual pres and the soundcard, opinions on whether to use a card with built in pres, separate pres, or a mixer with pres? Are the pres in the sound cards as good or... than separate units? One of the main reasons I ask is...

I'm trying to break into doing recording on computer. The thing I'd like to get is advice on the right card, pre-amp, setup for acoustic and electric guitar. I spent a little bit of money on a SBLive and a Art MP Tube just to get a feel for doing this. Now, I really want to get better...

I realize that you've gotten a hella lot of feedback that you need to research but, I've done alot of acoustic miking and I can give up what has worked well for me. Works well for all styles, fingered, strummed, etc.: 1 mic at the place where the neck attaches to the body pointing in and up at...

Steinberg, the makers of Cubase has a program called Clean! that can remove the junk from your .wav file. Any editor, Cubase, Cakewalk, CoolEdit, Samplitude, Vegas, SoundForge, etc. can do the editing.

Hey pisces7378: For your computer, your best bet for RAM would be PC133 MHz SDRAM 168-pin DIMMs non-ECC, unless your system supports 184-pin DDR SDRAM which by the sound of what processor you have, it probably doesn't. PC133 is the fastest RAM currently available for your system that's easy...

I realize that this thread has been worked to death by this time but I couldn't refuse adding my two cents. First, my system is Win98, CUSL2 board Intel chipset, PIII 800, 384MgB RAM. I am a pretty experienced computer user, 8+ years. I just got into computer based recording and decided to...
