    Yep, 18 tracks - no probs I have 2 disks -- 120Gb split into partitions, one of which holds XP on the D drive - 30 Gb which came from my '98 computer and is about 2 or 3 years old. I downloaded powertracks and the pc test said 48 tracks. So, what I have gathered so far is that CEP uses more...

    Random Crackles on Recording

    I exported the wav file and played it back in Media Player and the crackles are still there. It seems to happen on louder sounds, even though the signal does not go into the red. Not sure how to check the dma - I did see a box which said "dma if available". I have 2 hard drives, both 7200rpm...

    Background Noise

    Hey, sounds good - you must post me the settings However it does sound a "little" mechanical - perhaps a -small- amount of background ought to be there to give an impression of ambience ?? Well done Mike
