yes there will always be unique situations that require different strategies. that's why i stated my goal was to learn about the different aspects of recording. and i think many newbies have that same goal. Point #1: Give a newbie a high-end product. Starting out with that, the newbie would...

I see... So you really gotta know your gear and the chain they're in. thanks.

Yes, yes, I agree with some of what you guys are saying. Especially the upgrading to mediocre gear bit. I guess it boils down to this: Is it better for a newbie to learn the technique(s) of recording before improving quality of sound? Given the goal of wanting to learn the whole spectrum...

I'm sure some veterans around here will disagree with me on this, but I'd thought I'd share a a lesson that I've learned so far (in the last month and a half). So this is from a newbie point of view. I just started learning about home recording and knew nothing about condenser mics, preamps...

Re: OK -- the explanation.... Blue, if balanced cables reduce noise, why isn't every cable balanced. Why even bother with unbalanced signals? kt

What do you know, Paul. You're running around barefoot somewhere in the Shire with all your Hobbit friends. Have you ever left Hobbitown? Just so you know, it gets so cold in Norway that the polar bears are killing penguins to make coats. kt Sonar is cool.

Hey guys, just wanted to say that all the references to MIDI in Sonar's help guides and tutorials made me feel like I wasn't gonna be able to fully benefit from this program until I got me a MIDI keyboard. Just picked up a Yamaha DGX-202, 76 key monster. Now what's the difference between the...

Aren't mud skippers like mud puppies? I dissected one in biology lab a few years back. big fat heads, like moskus'. Fish cakes are really good. But we fry our fish cakes and eat it with rice. Yum! I think the question was about Cake walk though. It's definitely something like a moon walk...

I think your two stated goals can lead to different answers. If you want to record live shows, then what's very important is portability. Laptop...or probably better would be analog recording, someone correct me if i'm wrong on that. For home studio, you CAN get all kinds of stuff depending...

I'd figure you'd have plenty of anything frozen. Wouldn't a live salmon be more valuable? Hey how far south is the North Pole from where you are? kt

Norway!! Of course things are expensive up there. Everything needs to be shipped in warm packaging. What kind of money you use up there, anyway? kt sorry this isn't about cakewalk.

totally new to Sonar. the book was only 18 bucks on buy.com. can't wait to unleash this thing. kt

Robert, I must've listened to this song at least a couple dozen times already. I don't like the smooth low voice version. Maybe cuz it's different from all your previous versions. And the raspy version you have posted on here is a bit higher than the previous versions also. The best version...

I saw some mentions of this book on various threads. I just ordered a copy from buy.com. Can I get some comments and reviews on the book? kt

lol, damn straight. but u still have to put up with my nonsense, c. kt

woohoo, just ordered me another set of cans and two extensions. man, i love buyin' stuff.

excellent, thanks

I'm going through the tutorial at computermusic website and the first step is to open a new project, and I see a whole big list of templates to choose from. Is Sonar suppose to have different options, because all i have is Normal. Feeling kinda weak with no templates, man. kt

Thanks for the replies guys. I'm using XP and there are no newer drivers. I tried fiddling with the Audiophile for about a week and never could get it working smoothly for my needs. I just went back to my SB Live which I know is quite a step down, but it's already done. No lectures please. kt

Andrew, I use to get the Audio Driver Error when I have another program open that may be using the sound driver. I've tried to set "Share Drivers with other programs" in the Options-->Audio --> Advanced but that never worked for me. Perhaps others have had better luck. Anyway, it usually...
