I used to get upset when I had a bunch of songs that their levels were all over the place. My wife would want to hand cd's out to anybody she thought had juice in the industry and I say, "No! These are not finished!" She'd say, "They just need to be mastered, but I want people to hear what...

Most Overrated GP Thanks, I knew someone would agree. I just got done reading all of this thread and saw that it's 3 years old. Oh well. That said, as a guitar player myself, Neil Young should never have touched an electric guitar... and his voice makes me cringe. Not a bad songwriter, he just...

Most Overrated GP Steve Vai and Joe Satriani -- same guy, different hair. They've made their careers out of copping Jeff Beck. And anybody who plays only in drop-D or low tuned stuff. John 5, etc...

sonar 7dropout No problem, glad I could help. Keep an eye on your system resources: The less you have going on while you are recording, the better. I've never had a problem with AVG getting in the way, but who knows? Another thing you need to do is to keep your hard drives defragmented. If...

Hi Lukicore, Cakewalk Guitar Tracks Pro 4 -- $99 Cakewalk Guitar Tracks Pro USB -- $149 Real simple setup and GUI. The USB version leaves out a midi interface, but you can get an M-Audio midi 1x1 usb for about $40. I've used Cakewalk products for years. They are great, easy-to-use DAWs and now...

RE:sonar 7 dropout tried many ways pl help I am by no means the authority on this (there are a few guys here with some serious mixing and mastering skills), but I'll give this a shot. From reading quite a few posts about sampling rates, bit depths, and dealing with dropouts in Sonar,etc: I am...

That's okay, I went to the site and found the answer myself. Thanks for the link.

Hey Dinty, I caught this thread and realized I actually do something similar, although I don't have it systemized as succinctly as you do. I'm not a drummer, so I either have to grab a pre-sequenced drum line and edit it and move things around or write it out note by note. No matter where I get...

Equipment... Which interface? Which DAW?

Hi, A lot of the time I will throw a drum fill in the measure just before a chorus or solo takes off. It might start on the 3 or 4 of the measure, or even halfway through the 3. Depending on the feel of the song, it might start on the 1 or 2, or even several measures before the vs/ch change...

Hi, and welcome, First, what kind of budget are you working with? You need to consider your audio/midi interface, as it will be your main link between your instruments/microphone and your computer. Shop around online and brick and mortar retailers to find what will suit your needs, and fit your...

My wife found a problem with the memorex discs she was using (which I never use-- didn't like their tape definitely don't like their discs), and roland told her the same thing. If we are archiving tracks or handing out demos we only use the T.Y. Microboards; otherwise, like if we are giving...

Absolutely, take a look at this http://www.sonarvstudio.com/100/index.php. This is probably my next step as I love both Cakewalk and Roland. It's basically a Roland BR recorder, which makes it portable so you can take it to gigs: plus it's paired with Sonar VS Studio (product specific version...

Hey Masteringhouse, I have a couple things you might work with. Same recording configuration used on both pieces. If you'd like to give them a shot pm me with your email and what you need from me. ralpheo

Transfer on any multitrack via usb port is going to be relative to the length of each wav file. If you have six tracks of a two-hour show, depending on your computer's processor and hd space, as well as ram, you could be looking at any where from 30 min to two and a hours. Dynamic range also...

Hey! My wife and I own a Korg D888 multitrack and it has a usb function that shows the Korg as a separate hard drive folder. You open the folder and drag your wav files into your computer. The Roland BR 864, 900 and 600 have a similar function that uses the backup function under its usb...

Melsi, I'll tell you what my wife keeps telling me when I want to continue screwing with a project. "It only takes one stroke too many to ruin a painting". It's beautiful, leave it alone. Lovely production, mix. ralpheo

RE: midi help I want to use the sounds in the mo phatt and control them with the triton and record them in the mpc. Let's see if I can get you going. 1) Plug Triton midi out to Mo Phatt midi in. 2) Plug your Mo Phatt audio/line out to MPC audio/line in. 3) Plug your MPC audio/line out into...
