    Shouldn't this Basic setup work??

    As I said in my original post,I am brand new to digital. Forgive me if I lack the knowledge of terms to get my point across adequately. I know nothing about midi. What in essance I am looking for is,a way to speed up the D+D drummer. The reason I brought up Drumtrax is I read somewhere else that...

    Shouldn't this Basic setup work??

    Okay,, Got it working and basically loving life for the moment with one exception. While I like the concept and operation of "Drop and Drag Drummer" the 115 bpms limitation really sucks! Is there a compatible(with CW Guitar tracks 2) virtual drum program that I can use? Drum tracks 3.0 maybe?

    Shouldn't this Basic setup work??

    Mine is VERY quiet provided I keep my distance from my monitor. That seems to be very important. Also patches with Chorus seem to want to be noisier than others. AlChuck, with the zip disks can I download the entire project in seperate track format so it can be reinstalled at a later date when...

    Shouldn't this Basic setup work??

    Thanks Alchuck and Kennedy!! I also ran Echo Reporter and it said my system should be able to playback 32 channels so I started changing some settings and it appears to be working much better now. My Pod sounds awesome and no more tape hiss!! My Tascam is now a submixer(for the time being). Now...

    Shouldn't this Basic setup work??

    I ran the test and the results were an uncached performance rate of 3.47 mb per sec. Shouldn't that be fast enough to run 8 tracks?

    Shouldn't this Basic setup work??

    Forgot to mention I am using a SB sound card but it should be capable of simultanious playback and recording.

    Shouldn't this Basic setup work??

    I'm dipping my toes into the digital realm. I'm using Cakewalk Guitar tracks 2 in my PC. I'm running with 192mb of ram. I composed about a 4 minute track using Drop and Drag drummer and used my Pod to record a guitar track on channel two. Upon playback the 2nd track starts lagging behind at...

    Guitar Tracks VS. Music Creator

    I have Guitar Tracks 2 and am quite pleased with it thus far. It and My Pod get along real well and it is easy to operate. The drop and drag drumer is a little limited but an upgrade is available. I still think it's a little better than the Alesis SR16 I've been using. I too am running 64 mb ram...

    414mkII, what the hell?

    I use the number and pan to where ever I want the part. You can reposition the pan on playback or mixdown. It is a fairly simple machine, don't let the poorly written sections of the manual throw you.

    Your best electric guitar

    Probably my 85 Westone, with my Kramer(yes,I said KRAMER) neck thru a very close second. Odd thing is they both stay in their cases the majority of time because I know I can't replace them if anything were to happen to either.

    BR-8 users

    Thank you Julia! I was afraid that I would be severely limited on time at 100mb. That pretty much crosses the BR-8 off my list. Now leaning towards a Tascam 788

    BR-8 users

    Okay, Now I'm considering a BR-8 and would like some opinions from users if I may? How is the 2 level(lo and hi) EQ? Would I be able to mix down into wavlab lite in my CPU to burn to CD? My Cd burner is in my CPU. Is anyone using the Pod 2.0 with their BR-8? If so how does it handle recording...

    Would you buy a guitar you haven't played?

    I bought a $500+ piece of equipment from them and called specifically to ask if it was a reconditioned unit. I was told they would never do that! lo and behold when the unit arrived it had Reconditioned stickers plastered all over it. I didn't even open the box. I'm in the process of trying to...

    Would you buy a guitar you haven't played?

    I have, three times! Two turned out to be fantastic buys and one from Ebay was a slightly better than average purchase. I seem to be OK as long as I avoid MUSICIANSFRIEND!!!

    Why musicians friend sucks

    I will never refer Musiciansfriend to anyone!!! I have in my possession now (and about to be shipped back) a piece of equipment that was advertised as new but came with RECONDITIONED stickers plastered all over it!! This after I asked them directly in a phone conversation "Is this a...

    488 MKII ???

    The machine will be used primarily for my own arrangments. What do you mean by stereo outs? My 414 has line level L&R RCA outputs wich I hook directly to my HP now and record mixdowns to WavLab lite and that works fairly well. The editing is very limited that way though, can anyone suggest a...
