    Legal Issues

    Ah, yes I do see. And I think the answer is easier than you think (or I'm extremely simple myself tonight). Let's say R.E. copyrights and submits a song. Dragon Claws puts it on the HomeRec Comp CD (of whatever name), and submits an SR copyright. Now R.E. takes the same song and submits it to...

    Pushing the Rei envelope

    Sorry for just wandering in here like this... I'd really like to sit down with you, sonusman, one day...you must have one impressive set of ears! Anyway, my comment is that there's quite a lot of correct on both sides (if sides can be taken at all). 1. The current crop of equipment and...

    what difference does it make

    Wow, I hadn't heard about that price drop...thanks for the news. IMHO once you get to top-level equipment (i.e. Mackie VLZ) you don't have any noise to speak of anyway. If you have a digital mixer, then the mixer does A/D conversion; if you have an analog mixer, your recorder or soundcard does...

    Powered mixer as a preamp for mic/guitar signals to a tascam porta 2????

    Yes, those tape outs are what you should be using.

    studio monitors

    I have exactly the same monitors on my work computer as I am typing this (I'd rate them more like 5 watts, BTW). These are for hearing computer sounds, not for listening to music! Don't be impressed at all by the word "monitor"...after all, you're looking at one right now, aren't you? I'd use...

    Liner Notes

    Hey, I'm the one who's supposed to come up with the brilliant technical ideas :-)! That's incredible! I may already have one of those apps around (be great if it worked on Mac and PC both). At worst, we can just put an index.html page on the CD and link all the pages on the CD from there, plus...

    Legal Issues

    Folks, I think you should know by now that no matter what I do, nobody will be screwed by me financially. If I set up a recording label, that would just be for the ability to give the project a bit more "seriousness", keep the books on the CDs separate, and let the contributors say, "Why yes...

    A shortcoming/limitation of MIDI or not?

    You could simply separate the MIDI tracks and record each one to a separate audio track. Then EQ as desired.

    MIDI and DRUM MACHINES!

    You can set the metronome to any MIDI note in Cakewalk, so it can sound like a drum or triangle or whatever. The metronome can get reset to a different tempo in a moment, so you wouldn't want to redo your entire drum track, would you? Anyway, I think you can do what you want...if not, try the...

    newbie with Cakewalk Home Studio

    This is a very good question and since I had no idea what the differences are I flew over to the Cakewalk site and found this page: http://www.cakewalk.com/Products/Version9chart.htm which shows you exactly. Now, as far as I am concerned, most of the differences will mean little to most...

    4-track to amp

    Go right ahead...your 4-track monitor and main outputs are line outs, so you can plug them into any line in on an amplifier. Of course, if you mean a guitar amp, that's different! Some guitar amps have line inputs (sometimes on the back, or sometimes as an "effects in" on the front) but if you...

    Burning Locks On Disks

    Sure sounds like it! But it's not technically a lock, just works like one...it involves some pretty tricky low-level stuff.

    Legal Issues

    S2K...and everyone else..you're too much! I love yez all. The only thing that's a potential problem on this BBS is that the hits and bandwidth are going through the roof. Hopefully the new server and hosting service (which so far has been exemplary) will be able to take it. I just have to get...

    Legal Issues

    S2K, Jon X and CMiller stated it very concisely...about the only way I'd be happy with it myself. Everybody has to keep rights to their own music. I can't imagine it any other way. crazyhorse and dmcsilva, you guys are wonderful, and thank you. But I'm determined not to profit unfairly from...

    Can no longer read dat tape

    That sounds bad. Don't try to play it anymore. Go to a search engine like Altavista and try the search string +"data recovery" +DAT You will get lots of hits. Contact them and make sure they have experience with audio tapes (most of these companies deal with data). It will likely be expensive...

    Basic stereo recording question

    Duh, sorry! I have to finish debugging some software. Just go to the "Computer Recording and Soundcards" Forum from the front page of the forum, then to the thread "Multiple Sound Card issues".

    cd burner or recorder?

    I must admit that when I think of a CD recorder, I think of a standalone unit, but when I hear "CD burner" or "CD-R drive", I think of one that goes into a computer. Personally I think if Rockbottom already has all external equipment he might feel most comfortable with a standalone, er, CD...

    recording without a SUSTAIN PEDAL

    I'm sure there's a sustain written in CAL floating around somewhere, or you could draw the envelopes in. But heck, a pedal is $15?!?!

    Cakewalk 9 Reviews wanted

    Tentileight, I'm shocked! I have a mere 64 MB of RAM and no problems at 400 MHz on a PII. What the heck are you doing? And what soundcard?
