    How hot should the track be recorded?

    The signal from Q10 is very hot. I'm happy with it. I recorded vocals at almost red. When I played it back it's OK by itself. When I played with other tracks though I got an unpleasant result with some type of distortions. So how hot should the track be recorded? Or how do you handle a...

    Loading/Saving take longer in Sonar

    I have a question. When you save as a normal file, the wave files are stored at a central location somewhere (a black box :-). Wave files from your other projects are stored there as well. The question is once you're done with a certain project, eq. you've burned the CD, you need to delete the...

    Loading/Saving take longer in Sonar

    Yes, I meant 256K. Thanks. Yes, I save them as CWB files. I read over the years that saving as bundle file is the safest way. And it make sense about audio being copied everytime I open the file. My 40Gig hard drive has only 28Gig left about 15 versions of the same song later :D Now, I'll...

    Loading/Saving take longer in Sonar

    As I record more and more audio tracks it takes Sonar to load or save the file. Would installing more RAM help a bit? Currently I have 256K. I think I can go up to 512K. Or is it just a harddrive thing that can't be avoided and has nothing to do with RAM? It sure is fun inserting new audio...

    importing wav and significant volume loss

    I use wavelab and experiencing the same volume loss. I noticed Wavelab forced me to save it in 16 bits so I wonder if that's the cause.

    Mastering Sonar tracks in Wavelab then to CD

    I got a dozen of tracks (one song) in Sonar that I would like to master using Wavelab. Reading Wavelab manual doesn't help at all. I guess they don't have Sonar users in mind when they wrote the book :-) I would really appreciate if you could show me what steps I need to take. Doesn't have to be...

    Fellow Q10 users - Sonar can't see

    Hello fellow Q10 users, I just bought Aardvark Q10 and tested with Sonar 2.0. I was able to record using audio ins of Q10 but could not assign audio out for playback because Sonar did not see any. (Sonar sees the ins but not the outs, weird) I was able to play the recorded audio tracks...

    What can Wavelab do?

    Now that I know Wavelab is a popular tool for mastering I'm curious as to what it can do. $400 is quite an investment that I didn't foresee, a short list of what you can do with that software would be very helpful. I assume volume maximizer would be in it...Online music stores are not very...

    Help me burn my CD

    So how much does wavelab cost? I saw one at zzounds.com: Steinberg Wavelab Version 3.0 (Windows CDROM): $429. Is that the one you're referring to? It's kinda expensive. How long does it take to master the software?

    Help me burn my CD

    I'm in a process of burning my audios to CD. In Sornar I did File/Export Audio and give my file a name. From there I guess I could burn the wave file onto CD using CD burner that comes with XP (I think). When I play the wave file, I think I kinda lost the volume though. Why!!!! 1. But isn't...

    MIDI and Audio tracks not together!!!

    I'm using LynxOne sound card, JV1010, and sonar2.0. I never had this problem before with ProSuite (PA9) I got the answer from Cakewalk tech support yesterday: "It sounds as if your soundcard/MIDI Interface drivers are corrupt or outdated. Download and install the latest drivers from Lynx's...

    Aes/ebu S/p Dif

    Thank both of you. So I gather this connection is only for transferring digital data from one device to another -- nothing you can use live while recording. Can you please describe how you use it in your situation. Your connections and devices, instruments, at what time, etc.

    MIDI and Audio tracks not together!!!

    At first I recorded MIDI rhythm, piano, and bass. Than vocal... Several audio tracks later I tried to add MIDI track (strings). When I played back, my new string track and previous tracks aren't together. Strings track came out ahead of the rest. What's going on? Since I'm working for someone...

    Sonar lockup (Release key)?

    If you accidentally select an incorrect clock source but you don't have the right source Sonar would just hang there waiting for the right signal. How do you wake up sonar and go back to your project without having to logout (in XP) by doing alt-ctrl+del? Thanks.

    livesynthpro and memory usage

    Yes, that's what I meant. Using from preset list is so much faster then clicking "load" button so I thought the SF must have been preloaded. But now you're telling me otherwise... Hmmm... I wonder what's causing the dropouts all of a sudden. I could play around with the latency buffer size but...

    My PC will not recognize the new 256MB RAM stick I just installed... ARGHH!!!!!

    I had similar experience recently. I bought 256MB stick from bestbuy at a very good price which my emachine didn't recognize. Upon returning the merchandise a technician at Bestbuy told me I need to buy Kingston brand which is not on sale at the time ... Other people had similar problem I was...

    livesynthpro and memory usage

    I'm experiencing Dropouts in sonar... I wonder if that's because I saved a bunch of my own presets in livesynthpro. Anybody know if saving that way use up RAM memory? I don't want to delete the list just yet before I get the answer since I spent time typing them up one by one.
