    Electronics

    It's about time I posted something here - it's probably not for everyone (influences include Orbital, Eno, AFX etc), but I'd still be interested to see what you guys think of the mixes. http://www.mp3.com/castel Equip - VST5 & VSTi, Delta66, Roland Juno-106/JX-3P/S-50, Novation...

    Help with Delta 66

    I'm running VST5, a Delta-66 and an AWE64 all together without any problems (it's actually good!). Are you using the Delta ASIO driver for VST? Make sure you have the latest update from MAudio's site. Try messing around with the Delta mixer - make sure you don't have your outputs muted etc...

    Sound Card MIDI generation to disk?

    I don't think it even matters which cards you have installed for using VAC - I'm pretty sure it bypasses all your hardware. The only thing is - it might just be limited to 16bit... and of course even if it isn't - you'll have to have an editor that goes up to 24bit. I really should check it out...

    Sound Card MIDI generation to disk?

    V.A.C doesn't have anything to do with MIDI or with synths - it's only audio. Instead of sending your MIDI synth sound out from your card you just send it to a recording application. (From what I can remember anyway). I'm sure there is a website for it somewhere.

    Super Bit Mapping?

    OK... I have a vague idea of what SBM is (magically squeezing more than 16 bit audio onto a CD). There doesn't seem to much info around about - but I've noticed a few CDs make a big point of showing off about it. How is it done? Why is it done? Is it similar to what all those fancy dithering...

    Sound Card MIDI generation to disk?

    Have you ever seen Virtual Audio Cable? This might be worth a shot - it allows you to send your audio output (from your cards MIDI synth) back to pretty much any application... So your card can play directly into Sound Forge or whatever without having to make any appearance in the 'outside...

    A NEW ReWire problem

    When using VST5 and ReBirth 2.01 everything is fine - BUT if I have multiple ReWire channels in the VST mixer (eg. 909 Kick/303 1/808 Multi etc)they refuse to save. So when I reopen my songs I have only the L&R ReWire channels in VST - I have to reset any effects I might have had on individual...

    Pitch bend limited to 2 notes.

    Ahaa... Maybe that's why I've only just noticed the problem. Up until a few weeks ago I was using an old Roland S-50 as my controller - maybe this sent the pitch range message to my sequencer and my current controller KB (BassStation) doesn't. Midi is so dumb :)

    Pitch bend limited to 2 notes.

    Well... here I go answering my own question just incase anyone else has the same problem (thanks to whatever AWE faq site I found this on). 1.In your sequencer, bring up the event list for the track you want to change. 2.Insert a control change at the beginning, number 101, with a value of 0...

    Pitch bend limited to 2 notes.

    I've just discovered that I can't get any Windows based applications to bend more that 2 notes (sequencers and softsynths). I've tried inputing "the big 127" in VST, I've tried numerous controller keyboards... but Windows just can't do it for me. I'm sure that I've had full range bends using my...

    GigasoundfontVsampler

    I'm trying to convert a MASSIVE gigasample into either a soundfont or a VSampler bank. I'm using Awave and I'm getting an "out of memory" error. Can anyone suggest another method of converting big Gigs?

    Sound Forge - 16 Tiny Bits?

    Hmmm. Maybe Sonic Foundry have spent too much time bringing us the 'amazing' ability to encode an MP3 or RealAudio file using Sound Forge that they forgot that some of us like to make our music sound BETTER not worse. Oh well.. i guess that's Steiny 1, SF 0.

    Sound Forge - 16 Tiny Bits?

    Am I missing something or can Sound Forge only work with 8 & 16 bit files? I'm a big fan of Sound Forge - but if I can't use it for editing 24 bit files... then it really is not much use. I don't want to have to learn a new editing application just to work on 24 bit files. Can I do anything? Am...

    Midi to WAV

    The noise (when running the AWE out to the Delta)is minimal, and to be honest can't be heard in a final mix. I guess just knowing the noise is there is what makes me grumble. Thanks for the replies. I didn't think there would be a magic bullet for this problem. (Or is it silver bullet?)

    Midi to WAV

    Hi, I know this question has been asked a thousand times before, but I've never seen a REALLY good answer. I need to turn MIDI into a wav file but without sending the signal out of my PC. I'm using an AWE64 (internal synth and Reality), a Delta-66 and Cubase VST. So... is there a way to either...

    Delta freqs out?

    I was just reading the specs for my new Delta66 and noticed that the analog inputs freq response is 22Hz-22kHz. I assume that recording at 96kHz is therefore useless unless I'm using the digital inputs? Also - can anyone suggest the best software to convert 24bit wavs to 16bit (for CD)? Thanks...

    ISIS vs. DELTA

    ! I decided on a Delta66 and bought one today (haven't installed it yet though). Interesting thing is - when I first got home and looked in the (shrinkwrapped) box, I noticed that it was missing something.... the card! The breakout box etc was all there - but no card. The suppliers swapped it...

    ISIS vs. DELTA

    Paying apx $500 extra for the Delta and missing out on digital IO & having to keep my stinkin' AWE64 for MIDI is seeming dumber and dumber every minute. Oh dear.. I really have to make up my mind.

    ISIS vs. DELTA

    I'm getting a new soundcard in the new few days. It's going to be either an ISIS or a Delta44. I can't decide because : - I know the Delta is better quality, but I need MIDI I/O and I'm concerned that a Delta won't sit happily next to my AWE64 (I'll need to keep the AWE for it's MIDI outs). -...
