Until recently, Korg did not have a cdr burner that they sold themselves. The ones they have now seem to have appeared about the same time the d1600 came out ( very recently). I don't even know if they can be used with the d16, since (i believe) they are made to go into the cdr internal bay of...

'Horse, I use a mac g4, not an imac, but the latest catalog for Sweetwater (www.sweetwater.com) shows a flow chart suggesting the imac can use logic audio gold software while utilizing the Tascam US-428 input/output interface. I think it plugs into the USB port of the imac. Might have to be a...

Prophecy, Now, I don't know much about midi, but I'll tell you how I do it. I use two Rode NT3's for overheads. Great sounding mics for the $149 that I paid for each. I only trigger the snare and kick drum. I use Ddrum triggers which go to an old D4 module. I use the module's settings to...

'Cracker' Thanks for that concise answer. My quest continues.

Folks: Is word clock the same as midi clock? I see that the M-audio delta 1010 will synch with word clock. My Korg d16 has midi clock capability (also MTC ans MMC), and I want to synch it with a delta 1010 or some other card. Thanks

I just bought a mac g4 (used) to use in my home studio. I also record with a korg d16. One of the reasons I bought the computer was to add some loop-based capability such as acid pro. Now I find out that acid is just for windows users. Am I screwed? Are there comparable programs for mac...

Consider the Korg d16 or the just released Korg d16. Both are excellent values. Search for posts on this device.

Vease, I see what you mean. I don't know a way of hooking up the d16 directly to your computer, except through: 1) the analog outs from the d16 to the analog ins of your soundcard, or 2) optical out from the d16 to an optical in on your soundcard. Now, your soundcard probably doesn't have an...

D16 user Vease: I'm not sure what you mean by "playback sound files straight from the Machine", but what I do is burn audio disks to an external cdr for playback on other cd players. There is a way to import/export .wav files on the d16, but I haven't messed with that. I think you need a dos...

Went with the G4 Well guys, thanks for the replies. I went to the used mac shop today and bought a G4 "graphite" instead. $1,050 used. I hope that's a decent deal. Anyway, it has 192 meg ram, 400mhz "sawtooth", one 10 gig 7200 rpm drive, and a 30 day warranty. Frank: I see that many...

Welcome mikemoritz: Always glad to see new d16 users. It has been kind of lonely here for us at times. Seems like the d16 or d1600 posts are getting more and more frequent. Probably due to the plunging price of the d16 (from $1999 to $1299 in one year). I agree that the d16 guitar sims...

I usually record on a Korg d16, however, I am thinking of buying a used mac g3 for about $800. I don't know much about macs, but I think it is 300mhz. If I bump the ram to 192 meg and throw in a second 7200 rpm drive, how many tracks can I realistically expect to record. If it is less than...

I have a d16, not a d12. But to me the d12 seems to be either an upgrade from the d8 or a baby brother to the d16 (depends how you look at it). If I had to guess, I would speculate that the new d1600 will replace the d16 and the d12 will replace the d8. The d12 looks to be contained in the...

I use a Korg d16 for recording, but I would like to be able to transfer my tracks to cakewalk on my computer. The d16 will generate MMC and MTC. If I wanted to synch the d16 with cakewalk, how would I do it. Lets say I got a soundcard/breakout box with midi in/out, could I transfer two...

I am currently using my Sony home stereo receiver for mixing and playback. It works pretty well (better when my yorkville monitors arrive in mail soon!), but I am thinking of getting a reference amp. However, seeing how technology is advancing, I'm wondering if it would just be better to get a...

I would say to try one of those little RadioShack electret lavalier mics. Generally known as the industry standard for fart micing. Slips right down the back of your pants. You could use a tube preamp if you felt it needed a little "warming' up".

Trash-can man: Pardon my ignorance, but I was wondering about the fire wire drives. The latest Musicians "Friend" catalog has a big studio package for sale that includes the digi001 and a fire wire drive. I noticed that there is not a computor in the package. Are they saying that you can go...

Taxman88: I know you are thinking that 8 tracks are enough for you and your friends, but I think you should think hard about this. For example, stereo keyboards and stereo guitar tracks eat alot of tracks. Not to mention the stereo drum machine track you will want someday. Also, I don't see...

Vibratone: Actually, you don't mix down to the cdr, you mix down to tracks 1 and 2 (or any virtual track on 1 and 2) and then burn to cdr. Also, make sure your software is the 2.0 version. So: 1) Bounce to tracks 1 and 2. All final effects etc will be applied here. 2)Crank pan knobs on 1...

A good starting place is to hand tighten all of the tension rods. When you do this, put the drum on the floor and press down on the rim so that you hand tighten as much as you can. Then take a drum key and turn each rod 1/2 turn (180 degrees). Tweak each rod by tapping the head near the rod...
