    DVD Ripping software

    I've not posted in a while and I'm not sure where this belongs exactly, so I thought I'd start here. I have a dvd videos with me playing on it and I'd like to take the video and audio off, save it to my video file and upload it to some video sites. I spent a good amount of time this weekend...

    Tascam DP-02...I need recording help!

    I agree with the above posts. The DP-02 is a great system. I, too, had a slow start, but once you're comfortable with the sequence of steps, you'll start expanding and experimenting with what the unit can do. I also have found that the TASCAM operation support has always been VERY helpful...

    DP-02 Error Message

    After burning a CD, my recorder asks me if a want to make another CD and to insert another blank. I push the Yes/Enter button, put a new blank CD in and start to make another copy of the finalized songs I've just finished. Very shortly Error message #50 comes up and it says to power off the...

    DP-02 freeze up

    In the middle of recording multiple tracks on the DP-02, I'm encountering flashing play and/or record buttons. Especially when I go to playback what I've just recorded. When I either try to save the song or play it back, the message in the window says "Not Stopped". Same thing when I try to...

    CD duplicator

    I'm on a REAL worn shoe-string budget. What company makes a reasonably priced CD duplicator (1 x 1) which will last awhile, making 100 to 200 copies and maybe more copies? Thanks

    Intrument mix

    Thanks Glen, I've been playing live for well over 30+ years, so the great bulk of my experience goes from playing on stage to sharing a small corner of a room with any number of other musicians. And my recording experience is minimal, so I appreciated getting some straight feedback here...

    Intrument mix

    I'm using rhythm samples from 2 keyboards and a sound module, so I'm not able to control the individual drums and cymbals. Also, the music I'm recording is my own compositions that range from Latin to swing to Soft Rock to Jazz Waltzes and Blues. All having some jazz influences, so I've...

    Intrument mix

    When mixing drums and bass, is there an industry rule of thumb that these instruments are panned to the same side? And the same question for say keyboard and guitar and vocals. Not really heard much of a stereo difference in recordings of similar types of music I'll be recording. Thanks

    Need to rip and burn

    Thanks for the response NL5. Nero came up in a search and I did download it from cnet. When I tried to open it though, it denied me access. Hmmph.......

    Need to rip and burn

    I hope this is the right section for this post. My 7 yr old computer came loaded with Music Match, Roxio CD creator and of course, Windows media player. All of which I have used over the years to rip and burn CD's, but mostly, Music Match. For the past few months, I've not been able to get my...

    Phantom Power mic

    Of course Cosmic, I do recall seeing people go back and forth on whether to go through the DP-02 with a mic and just mix the volume lower on the music or run the mic through a slightly powered mixer first and then into the DP-02. Of course, if the easy solution was to JUST use a mic with PP...

    Phantom Power mic

    Concerning the DP-02, I can live with the way the unit handles a "normal" mic, when recording vocals. But the unit also has a Phantom Power ability. Has anyone noticed when using a mic with Ph Power that the unit is more sensitive to vocals that way, than when not using Ph Power? I just have...

    My New DP-02

    If you folks don't mind, I'd like to add a question to the mix, while we're talkng DP-02 here. I agree with the above post concerning the way the unit handles a "normal" mic, when recording vocals. But the unit also has a Phantom Power ability also. Has anyone noticed when using a mic with...

    How to start a writing a song?

    I forgot...one other way I've written songs, is to start with a title that suggests a mood, emotion, visual image and therefore, a musical direction. I have recently started a list of titles for future thought that I know will develop into songs.

    How to start a writing a song?

    I can appreciate that we all want to reach and/or move those that hear our music. But what moves one could just as easily bore another. We're ALL just like that because of our diverse backgrounds and our likes and dislikes. I've found over the years of songwriting that things that need to be...

    Brand new TASCAM DP-02 CF

    For those of us that are Tascam owners, I have a DP-02 that I've not used that extensively, but have posted here a bit and also found a Tascam Operational Support phone number to have been VERY helpful. 323-727-7617 press 3 It's in California so be aware of PST Merry Christmas and Happy...

    Copywritten material

    Hi dementedchord, my general impression of the length of time a copyright lasts isn't so much concerned with time as it is a song's activity in the marketplace. Although I may be waaaay off base in reality...but it'd be good to know.

    Copywritten material

    What is the 'rule of thumb' for recording copywritten material, like older standards from Cole Porter, Rogers and Hart, Gershwin, etc.. that I'd like to perform, record and sell in two's and fews from places where I might perform? I know this isn't a forum discussing the legalities of...

    DP=02...mic?

    Did a quickie first recording last week...1st track was instrumental straight from keyboard. 2nd track was a vocal from a Shure SM-58. Even with the Phantom power on and every knob and dial turned to almost 11, (lol) I had a hard time getting the vocal the show up on the meter and had to bring...
