    Is my current computer good enough?

    Well, man, it sounds like you and I are doing things fairly similarly. I have a Tascam 8-track, and I too send the mix to my computer so that I get a wave file. I think SBLive comes with software with LED meters, so you can record the song while making sure that you're not clipping, and you...

    recording with ACID

    I recently picked up ACID 2.0 on Amazon, and I love the interface, but I'm having trouble recording the final mix to a wave file. I can play the mix back, and everything sounds great, then I go to record it, and I hardly hear anything. When the file is done, I open it up with SoundForge, and...

    Mastering at home

    I dig that, RJ! Thanks for the post. I mean, you HEAR a lot about do-it-yourselfers, well, doing it themself at home, and coming up with decent sound on a budget. I guess it's just the perfectionist in all of us that comes out when we're doing our own stuff, and you want it to sound like it...

    What's a poor boy to do?

    Hey, thanks for the posts, fellas! Very helpful. I think I can figure out the rest. Anyone know of a good book on Cakewalk that reads a little better than the manual? Something tells me I should get to know this program a little better, and maybe avoid some hours of frustration.

    Tascam 424....yup...the original....and another question about software

    Hey Bow, It sounds like you and I have similar setups (i.e. low-budget, and old Tascam). I have had luck with recording from my 8-track Tascam into my computer, and using SoundForge to master the end result. The downside to this is that you have very little control over individual tracks...

    Mastering at home

    OK, so mastering is like, the mysterious science, and only mastering gurus can truly do it right, right? Everywhere I turn, people say that do get a decent master, you have to send it to a pro. Well, that's what I bought SoundForge for! Anyway, I've been using SoundForge for a few months, and...

    ?Cubase vs. Cakewalk

    Hey folks. I was just wondering if I could get a quick opinion on something... I am currently recording on an analog multitrack recorder, and importing the mix into SoundForge, where I do a little mastering. I would like a little more control over the individual tracks, though, and was...

    Question about file formats in Cakewalk?

    Alright, I am a newbie, to Cakewalk, that is. I just got a copy second-hand, without a manual, and was wondering if any of you experienced Cakewalkers could help me out with something... I am importing analog sound to my computer, and using SoundForge to edit it. I would like to then import...
