You have a quadcore machine with a PS/2 port?!? On older machines where there were both options, I always went with PS/2 because a mouse at an interrupt level worked better - the USB mice always stuttered. I haven't seen anything new for a few years with anything but USB ports. But as the...
Given that a different power source eliminated the problem, I agree with dgatwood that you probably have a ground problem.
I'm curious, is it an AM radio station? AM towers, themselves, are the annteneas. They are usually some fraction of the wavelength, so 100' is getting into that range...
On my 424, using the efx send, I'd return the efx to inputs 5/6 or 7/8. The only way to record the efx would be to record in buss L-R mode, not the direct channel since inputs 5/6 and 7/8 go to the main mix. For reverb, personally, I recorded it while mixing it be applied once. For other effects...
Beware: Look for multiple threads in this forum on V-Drum hi-hat midi issues. In short, the Roland module can vary the hi-hat based on pedal position, but the corresponding midi messages are simply open or closed. You may end up recording midi data and panning the hi-hat left and the rest of kit...
Love his playing and writing in the Smiths! Didn't know he had anything to do w/Modest Mouse. He's done nice work with Kirsty MacColl, too. He's tasteful and intricate, and he writes great chord changes. I think the whole Smiths band was incredible, but Johnny Marr's music was the perfect upbeat...
It wouldn't work because mic 2 is out of phase from mic 1 because of the distance, and even if you time aligned the mic 2 track to mic 1's, they are not the same sound (different place in the room) and would not cancel so cleanly like a copy and paste of a track in your example.
With limited...
Sibelius and Finale both have lite versions of their software which probably still do more than you want. I use the full version of Sibelius for notation of all sorts, but on occasion, I've made simple charts with Word usign a fixed-width font.
I just posted this to another thread, but sounds similar to a problem I had:
On a couple Sonar upgrades - 3 to 4 and 4 to 6 - I had to upgrade my video drivers to stop visually twitchy playback. I can't remember for sure if the faders behaved like yours, but that seemed familiar when I read it...
I found good help for my 200B on analogconsole.com in the Soundcraft forum. It's moderated by a former Soundcraft designer.

Jim Williams (who mods lots of things) weighs in over there, too. That's not...
I've had kind of the opposite experience when I monitor through the Firepod. Though, not compressed, but a bit thick and dense sounding. I've set it up to record and monitor through my mixer and then it sounds good and the same recording as playing back. When I had to take it out with my laptop...
I Got Riffs, I wasn't ignoring your comment. I thought we were discussing different issues. In the case I mention, as far as I can tell the midi info for the performance simply does not exist. While the varying velocities of drum hits are transmitted via midi, the fact that the hi-hat pedal is...
A major problem you'll have is that the MIDI output of a V-Drum performance does not accurately reflect the audio version of it. For example, you can get nuanced hi-hat control while playing the kit, but the corresponding MIDI that will be transmitted will only be full open or closed...
Check out Celemony's Melodyne. There are different versions, but I know that audio to midi is one the features it can do. Apparently quite well, too.
You should look at Finale notation software. It has this feature. While you are probably not interested in buying Finale, you might get some...
Does your keyboard have its own sounds? I'm guessing it does since you siad it sounds better. The difference is between using the software synth and using your keyboard to generate the sounds.
If your keyboard has its own sounds, go back to your original setup with a single midi track and set...
If you want audio in Sonar, you're going to have to solo each of the tracks in the sequenced tunes and record the output. If you play with the sequence you could direct the output of one track to the main L & R and another track to the Assignable L & R outs of the keyboard enabling you to record...
Great tip. Thanks. I just finally got my machine to stop periodic dropouts in Sonar on one my more complicated projects. I already use the Classic theme, but I killed a bunch of other visual stuff, set cpu usage to background, memory to programs and decided to give no paging file a try (I have...
I've had one for a few years. I got it for a little over $200 and have found it quite useful. But, I do like having both the digital and anaolog outs. Digital: when you drive it hard, its conversion algorithms, which are supposed to act like hitting tape, give a little compression-like...
Just one bump cause I can't believe no one has a theory or insight...
I've been plugging in all my cables to this distortion pedal but can't find another cable that causes the problem. I got the pedal brand new and cheap on eBay and like it, but I want to determine if it has some problem...
