Well, it kind of depends on what keyboard you have, where you'll find the midi receive channels. I may not be able to help you there as I have an XV-5080 and that's about the only one I can tell you about. A part in Roland-speak responds to one midi channel and in many of their newer...

My understanding is that there is a free upgrade for those who bought Sonar3 within 30 days. Also, it is just shy of a year that S3 has been out. Doesn't matter to me though..... sigh.... just a software junkie. :cool: Take Care

As usual, U da man!!!

Ravity is getting a lot of good press as a low CPU use general purpose Rompler: http://www.luxonix.com/home/en/ Also, Sample tank has just come out with Sampletank 2 which also gets good reviews in the "all around" catagory: http://www.ikmultimedia.com/ There was a "group buy" going on the...

Don't have a Sound Blaster, so this may not apply or you may have already tried it. Is there a control panel for your Sound Blaster.... I have one for my audio card. On it, there are controls for input level and gain. Also, (I use Vegas 2.0 as I only use it for audio), there is an input gain...

You're welcome. I guess if I went more into making beats, I would consider some of the software packages that do that well: Reason, Fruitty Loops, P5 and Storm. There are lots of drum machine like Battery, DR008, LinnPlug, Stylus, Microtonic, etc. etc. that can give you lots of drum sounds...

Well, an interesting question. One thought is that what is "hot" changes pretty rapidly in hip hop and other genres that focus on beats. As the QS (and I have one that I've had since about 98-99) is a little old by these standards, you may not like the drum sounds you get. You certain can...

Hmmmm.... well, I didn't know Sonar could do this, if it can, I just learned something. Let's say you have 4 recordings of a song. You have 4 tracks of each recording for a total of 16 tracks. Say 2 mics on the piano, 1 on vocals, 1 on room ambience. In Vegas, you can "lock" each set of 4...

IMHO, If you are mixing a bunch of wavs down..... like you have 4 takes of a song and you are going to select 4 measures from take #1, then 16 measures of #3, then 8 of #4, then 16 of #1 etc. I think Vegas is the easiest to use. For audio editing of a stereo wav track, I prefer Soundforge as...

I must be stupid, I always buy into this debate. :rolleyes: From what I have read so far here, some things which I believe to be true and others that are false. Creating the song in a tangible medium is your copyright..... but it is still darned hard to prove it in court. The poor man's...

I have one and find that it suites my needs well as something to enter midi data and serve as an 88 weighted key synth. Some of the sounds hold up well when used to sweeten the mix..... on their own they are not up to the current standard. I would go to e-bay and see what people have been...

To answer the questions you asked about in-out etc. there is some general knowledge needed and some specific knowledge.... eg, how to I pick a midi in channel in Sonar. To get some general knowledge, try this... it is long, but very, very good: http://www.cakewalk.com/Tips/Desktop.asp After...

I've never heard of a Cakewalk product which is transferable. Good luck getting your money back! Take Care

1) Glad to hear you are working again... congrats 2) Glad to hear you upgraded.... congrats. Dig right in, you'll love it! Take Care

Good info. I am not the greatest mixer (I certainly don't hear what a lot of people say they can in a mix :( ).... so the trick about comparing the two tracks will be helpful. Take Care

Okay, the comb filtering makes more sense to me when there are two direct signals mixed. If I have a lot of tracks using one reverb.... say all the backing tracks, I'll use an aux send... but if I am using a different reverb, say on the accoustic piano (I'm a piano player), I often use the...

Thanks for the reply I thought a chorus took the signal, broke it into several parts and delayed them slightly.... while there might be some comb filtering, it was not the major part of the effect. I thought phasers and flangers were mostly comb filtering.... that because of the calculated...

Qwerty, 1) why would reverb cause comb filtering at a track insert level and not as an aux send.... because.... in the end both would be summed. Let's say I ran an accoustic piano through a reverb at a track level.... it comes out summed. If I ran the same piano through an aux, the dry is...

Wow, I back up things that would be hard to prove that I owned (loops etc.) I also think (hope) the old homeowner's insurance would cover it if I had a robbery or fire or something. Hope I'm right, I am way toooo lazy to back up every one of the big programs I own. (Also, Portland isn't the...

Back up installation CD? Do you do that? :confused: I have always assumed that if I have a registered product, like Sonar, Reason, SF etc. and it goes south (the CDs are taken or burned up in a fire), Sonar etc. will replace them if I have my serial #. As a result, I keep a fairly up to date...
