    I just wanna make sounds come on my computer - boo hoo.

    all I can say is - when I used the Asio4ALL driver with my Alesis multi mix - latency was also a nightmare. I upgraded to the fast track pro - which replaces your internal soundcard (I don't think my alesis did) and latency isn't an issue anymore.

    Floating Bridge

    well, you can either bend the pitch higher - or lower. You have the choice =0 Also, you will be able to get the "Cricket" sound - (i'm not sure what it's actually called) It's in the solo of the Dream Theater song "under a glass moon". And umm - in the youtube guy Jerry C's song "Rock On"...

    track sizes?

    So, I have enlarge selected track on - and I like it - so I can keep tracks small . But I'm not understanding the sizes on some of these - I end up with mixed up sizes - for example one project I'm working on - the guitar track is Tiny, not even half an inch from top to bottom. Clicking on it...

    Not happy with guitar recordings (need help)

    Don't like muse... but I gotta ask - I've only recently learned about double tracking - and have been playing with it a lot. I can't believe the sound I'm getting from my guitar! it's so rich. Muse doesn't double track?

    Worst sounding Cd's ever

    Kcearl - have you ever heard of the Dance Hall Crashers? I'm not familiar with them, but my friend was playing a live CD by them in his car - and it sounded amazing!

    Tracking guitars, the logical way for rock? (poll)

    haha, I love pods too! =0 can't find the power chord for mine though I hope I'm not going to make any enemies over this - but although I agree it seems irrelevant to the thread I really enjoyed SSG's post and agree with it almost entirely. Actually, I usually find his posts very informative -...

    midi drums - Ezdrummer?

    nope. in the drum editor - http://vid.firepixie.com/skitch/Cubase_LE-20090126-071234.jpg Ez drummer is placing a diamond in between 2 lines - which makes me impossible to place anything at the exact same time as it. Although it allows me to quantize up to 64th notes - it's still ending up...

    mixing levels

    thanks so much suprstar! You're really helping me understand this - my frustration is being lifted! I think I'll be leaving hold peaks forever on. But now for the dumbsest question so far - what are the point of the ticks? If the number represents it - what do these ticks, or even for that...

    finding it impossible to stay in time when singing and playing guitar at same time...

    It's strange - I feel the opposite. I don't lose timing - But I've found I sing much better while I'm playing an instrument. (not just from hearing - but from recording as well!) I don't quite like the sound though. I just can't seem to sing - and only do that.

    Looking for someone to mix

    for free? I don't know who you think we are buddy... Hehe, kidding - But I am absolutely at the moment practicing at such a thing! And wouldn't mind at giving a go at your stuff.. Although, I can't say it will be a "CD quality mix" I can promise I won't try and steal your...

    midi drums - Ezdrummer?

    well it's being played just after the snare. I'd like to put it right ontop of it - so - with this drum editor guy - is there a way to add swing ontop of it? I know that the little fruity loops type thing has a little bar to do it. (can't remember what it's called right now)

    VST EQ? Izotope? T-Racks? Mastering?

    I thought T-racks was one single Insert though? Does it come as like a combined package so you can insert any of the separate effects you want onto a track?

    midi drums - Ezdrummer?

    So, I've been having a lot of fun playing with the midi "Drum editor" as it seems simplest to me - But if it was possible to add some swing into a beat I create on here? secondly I've only recently got ezdrummer, and started dragging and dropping some beats I like - But continued to remove...

    send to reverb

    thanks guys =) This reminded me of another question I had though (Gawd, I should really keep a pen and paper around and just get them all out at once) When I create an FX track, should it be stereo - or mono? I've been using mono because I've been sending my recordings done in mono to them...

    How to: Mix a song from beginning to end

    is vocsteady just a compressor? I'm looking at that and thinking "That looks a lot simpler than the compressors I've been using!" but it has to be limited - right?

    send to reverb

    Okay, after thinking some stuff over and playing a bit more with Reverb I have a few more questions - and hardly felt it fit to make a new thread. I was watching the videos in the "How to mix a song from beginning to end" thread - and noticed he was inserting reverbs directly onto the tracks -...

    mixing levels

    Yea, it seems useful for the clip signal - but for the numbers? It's impossible to tell where they're going! Please tell me I can turn that off too. Also - another complete noob question, but is this a good way to tell where my signal is peaking during tracking? (with the mixer in cubase) as...
