I am not sure this is the best forum but maybe someone can help me. I have a tape of my band that I have captured to my hard drive as a solid wave file. It is about 70 minutes. What is the best way to break it up into individual songs to place on a cd so that when the cd is played on a...

I have an mpg file that I demux using the mpg tools in TMPGenc. After it is demuxed there are 2 files a video m1v and an audio mp2. I want to do some editing to the audio file so I was able to open it in one of my editors but had to convert it to a wav to be able to use the audio software that...

I have a live recording that was done with just two mics facing the players recorded on a Fostex 160. The sound is overall very good except there is hiss through out the recoding. I have tried using both the Noise Reduction and Hiss reduction and although I can get alot of the hiss out I...

I have been fighting with my Delta for some time with little help from M-Audio Anyone here use one? If so maybe you cazn help. Do you typically keep the control panel settings for H/W Out 1/2 Monitor Mixer or WaveOut 1/2 Can someone explain the difference...

I have a quick question that may be very simplistic to many of you but since I am fairly new at the editing stuff I am hoping to learn a bit more as I go along. After mixing down a file in CEP 2 what steps do you do first? In other words should I 1.) Normalize 2.) EQ 3.) Amplify 4.) Compress...

I have a delta 44 from M-Audio that is driving me crazy. I have spoken to their tech support but I might as well be speaking to another country. My system is an AMD 2600+. Win2K, 512MB Ram, 80GB WD & 120GB Maxtor machine. The problem is the audio card keeps adding clicks and pops into the...

Can anyone provide a quick definition as to what normalize does and why I would/would not want to use it? THanks

A friend of mine loaned me a V160 Fostex to record a concert the other night. I have never used one before but after reading some of the manual I was able to figure out how to record the music. I connected 2 mics to the balanced #7 & #8 channels and just recorded directly in letting the machine...

Does anyone know who I could contact to replicate our newest cd? We are looking for a small run at first 50-100. Any ideas of who is best price would be helpful. Thanks

I am not sure if this is the best place to ask this but I am not sure which would be the best forum, so here goes. I am messing with a couple of pieces of wav editing software and they have different views. One view is the Spectrogram. Why would I use this view? What information does this...

Looking for some help with effects. I have been playing guitar for a long time but have never used any type of effects. I am in a jazz quartet now and play mostly an ES-175 but I have a Dean EVO for some songs. We play some blues, maybe a few a night. I really love some of the biting sounds I...

Someone just gave me a Roland TD-5 drum set. There are 6 different pads and 2 foot switches (bass and hihat). I need help with 2 things 1.) Anyone know where I can find a manual for this? The Roland site is useless. 2.) Anyone know where I can find a schematic on the best way to physically set...

We are playing a live gig tmrw night that needs to be recorded. I can bring my tape deck, which is fairly good one to record to. But I once remember someone telling me that the audio tracks on a VCR are better than cassette tape. Don't ADATs use SVHS tapes? I have an SVHS HIFi deck that is...

I know some of the people here are from NJ/NY. I am looking for a guitar repair person that can really be trusted and is really excellant. I have a pre '30s arch top that needs repair but I am definately afraid to just give to anyone. Can anyone suggest a luthier/repair person of high esteem...

I am interested in a looper for learning riffs. I use my computer now and it works well. I can slow down to 1/2 speed without any sound or pitch loss. But it is tedious and difficult. I notice there are devices out there that supposedly do this easier, although I have read varying opins about...

I recently purchased a Dean EVO. It is similar to the EPI Les Paul. It at times sounds a little cardboardy. Anyone have any ideas on choices of pickups that I might upgrade to that can give a better sound. It has humbuckers in it but I am not sure of the grade. Of course I may be completely...

I recently purchased a Dean EVO Special. I use it as a knock around. It has a decent tone, similar to Epi Les Paul. What strings would you recommend for this guitar to play jazz? There are a thousand stings out there and I haven't kept up with this in a long time. Thanks

I live in Ocean County, NJ. Is there anyone out there that has a recording studio in North Jersey or NYC that would allow me to stop by and be a fly on the wall or a grunt if you need one. I am new to the recording end of things and really enjoy this site but would love to visit a real studio...

I have read varying opins about this and have talked to a number of people and got more varying opins so let me ask you guys. If you are going to record a 5 piece band is it best to 1.) record the whole band at one time. What I mean is, should I put everybody in the recording room at once...

I need a device that could add a little cruch to the sound. Mostly blues playing. There are dozens of pedals out there so I am looking for some opins from people who use them. Marshal has several, Ibanez, Danelectro. I like the Marshal but. Thanks
