Initial ideas to help with new probs... Dear Ken. All these things are detective work, so these are not definite answers but things to eliminate before going onto the next Great Idea (NOT!!!) The hissing is prob. because you've got the AMPLIFIER/LOUDSPEAKER volume level up too high, so it's...

Tell me how everything goes Dear Ken Tell me how everything goes and I'll bung another couple of mixing ideas at you. Like I say, I'm NOT a great mixer. There's LOADS I don't know yet. But I DO have a couple of ideas that might help you - they work for me, anyway. Respect ulrichburke

The crackling might be wrong sample setting. Dear Friend. The crackling MIGHT be latency. Just incase the term's new to you, that means the amount of time the signal takes to get from your instrument - guitar or whatever - throuigh the computer to the speakers. You can think of it like a piece...

Re: Where in the BIOS do I look? You'd think it would be one of those easy, just-choose-this-menu-option answers, wouldn't you. The problem is, there's LOADS of bioses made by LOADS of different companies and they hide things in different places. Which makes for an interesting life, until you...

I've got a schneaky idea - check this first. Go into BIOS - if you don't know, that's usually done by tapping F2 (the function key on the top of the keyboard) as the computer is booting up. Some systems use the DEL key above the set of four arrow keys to do the same thing. So you might have to...

Dear Anyone. There isn't a softsynth section on this site (Why?) so I'm posting this here, feel free to repost if necessary. I bought a 2nd hand computer with Sampletank already on it, because it was cheaper and easier than buying the software separately along with the updates my aging...

I'm very sorry, all of you - I swear Windows Mixer isn't there. And I think I can prove it! Y'see, it doesn't matter what recording program I click on - Wavepad, MP3myMP3, Mixpad, Mixcraft 4, Windows Movie maker, gotta give me credit for trying! - I get the same error message:- There is a...

Thanks everyone for your help thus far, but now nothing records at all :-( Dear Everyone. I'm not actually using CUBASE to write the music in at the moment, because I'm waiting for my course in how to use it to start - in about 10 days! - and right now I feel like Buzz Lightyear trying to...

What's CONEXANT mean, f'starters.... Dear Jacksonfreak. I don't know what CONEXANT means and I can't find a definition of it anywhere - I'm not good at the techie stuff, sorry. ASIO confuses me greatly (not hard to do!) Do I use it INSTEAD of my soundcard's driver, or AS WELL AS my...

Dear Anyone. I've got an AMD Sempron processor, 1GIG RAM, an ASUS ASROCK motherboard and Windows XP Pro SP2. And an M-Audio Audiophile 2496 Soundcard, complete with latest driver. Now I've just become the proud LEGAL owner of Cubase Studio 4, complete with dongle and manuals etc., but I'm...

Dear Anyone. My comp's an AMD Sempron with WinXP Pro SP2, 1`gig RAM, an ASUS ASROCK motherboard, REASON 4 and Voyetra Music Maestro Notation Package (non-Rewire compatible, but read on, read on!) I'm disabled, can't physically play a keyboard too well, so I have to use a notation package...

Dear Anyone. I have a Soundblaster Live 5.1 Soundcard, with Vienna Wave Studio, which lets you nick a bit of any ripped CD track and save it as an 'instrument' - by which I think it means a very short loop (I'm an absolute beginner in all this and I'm drowning in technology/technospeak, so...
