    Align to snap

    When you say "align", is there a tool? Last night I just zoomed way in, lined up the cursor with the transient, and split all the tracks. I deleted everything to the left. I selected everything, cut, moved my cursor to 0:00 and pasted. I then un-did everything for other reasons, but I'll re-do...

    Align to snap

    Ok, today's Sonar mixing question: I have a session tracked. We tracked to a click, but we didn't use Sonar's click, we used an external metronome. We've never actually recorded to a click before so I've never been able to take advantage of the snaps, etc. Our session doesn't align with the...

    Transfer a session/tracks between computers

    Yup. Moving the whole sessions makes the most sense. I'm not sure why I was so hung up on maintaining the input assignments, I'm not recording those tracks again anyway. Thanks for all the suggestions! -j

    Transfer a session/tracks between computers

    Thanks for your input Strryder. I may be mistaken, but I believe once I load the session file onto the computer without the inputs, i'll loose all of the interface channel assignments. When I bring the session back to the tracking computer, I'll have to re-assign all of the channels, is this...

    Transfer a session/tracks between computers

    As you may have seen in my other thread, I'm tracking on one computer and mixing on another (previous projects were tracked on a DP24), both running X2. Is there an easy, or approved method for moving sessions/tracks between 2 computers? I assumed X2 would have some type of "Session export"...

    Audio Engine Guru?

    Interesting. I'm trying to keep this computer off the Internet as much as possible....but I'm weak and have no patience. I've turned off updates but i'll run continue to run scans just in case. Good catch.

    Audio Engine Guru?

    Success! We had a great recording session last night. Upwards of 24 tracks over sever takes. The audio engine turned off a couple times but never during a recording, I assume during Saves or something, but it was never an issue. I still have serious latency issues making real-time monitoring...

    Audio Engine Guru?

    Awesome! I think I may have got it, but I won't know for sure for a few more days. Thanks!!

    Audio Engine Guru?

    Great question. Updates ran last night....between the 1st session and the 2nd. This was an older computer I re-formatted a while ago and pulled out recently. It installed something like 43 updates between the 2 sessions. HOWEVER ...plot twist. My mixing computer is running Win10. My backup...

    Audio Engine Guru?

    I’m getting Auidio Engine dropouts that I want to believe have more to do with my TASCAM 1641 than my computer. Here’s the situation: We’re tracking on one computer (through the Tascam) and editing on a different computer. Both computers are running Sonar X2. The Tascam is only hooked up to the...

    Keeping track of tracking tracks

    I'm embarrassed to ask.... I've been recording my band for several years now, but always "Live" on a Tascam DP24. I mix at home with Sonar. This week, for the 1st time, we'll be individually multi-tracking straight to Sonar. My question is how do you keep track of all the different versions of...

    Mixer Maintenance

    I'm not sure the is the best forum, but there does not seem to be a Mixer or a Yamaha forum, so here goes....(if you think this belongs elsewhere let me know). I have a very used Yamaha 02R. It works well, but it's a little noisy and the automated faders look challenged. Next week I plan to...

    Small Changes - HUGE EFFECT - Recording "Live"

    We've talked about headphones. There's obvious advantages. We really enjoy the comfort and freedom of the PA. We like to feel unencumbered. Eventually we'll invest in headphones, mixer, and enough cabling to make it comfortable, but right now we're content with the PA. Believe me, we...

    Best way to automate volume?

    In my limited experience (maybe Cakewalk specific), once I set up an envelope, I can no longer control the track volume manually. My fader will no longer control the volume, the automation will control the fader. If, after I automate, I decide I want the entire track a db or 2 louder, the only...

    Best way to automate volume?

    I didn't read all the posts thoroughly, so I apologize if I'm being redundant or unnecessary.... I route the original track to a bus. Then I automate the bus. This way I can adjust the level of the original track easily. Hope this helps. -j

    Small Changes - HUGE EFFECT - Recording "Live"

    I'm so thrilled with the effect that I thought I'd share.... We made a few changes to our recording space. I replaced two passive Peavy PR12s/Old crappy (VERY beat up) amp with a ONE QSC K-12. Then we made 4 panels of Owens Corning 703, 4" thick (2'x4') and created a barrier around the drum kit...

    Have you added a pickup?

    Well, for those of you following along at home, you may have talked me out of cutting into my bass .... for now. I experiment with a couple bass drivers but I really didn't dig the overdriven, clipped tones. Last night I pulled out my old preamp that I used on my upright, and I think we have a...
