After you guys told me how to use punch in/out I started trying it. But I don't like it. I had rather just do the whole thing over. It seems that when I sing a song I either like everything about the take or there are so many mistakes in it that it is better just to trash the whole thing. Maybe...

I haven't been able to do anything lately other than record on the MR-8. I couldn't transfer anything to the PC for mixing in n-track because of some kind of spyware that downloaded itself onto my computer. It probably rode piggyback on some free software that I downloaded. I luckily bought...

Look, don't think I'm getting all cheesy and snotty or trying to brown nose here or anything like that, but I would like to thank you guys and gals. This is the best forum out of the 3 or 4 I go on. You folks are the most helpful, nice, encouraging bunch of people that I'm around on the net...

Well just when I thought I was getting somewhere. I turned my M-Audio monitors on and the right one was making a terrible noise. When I started playing music through it the right one was very loud and the left one was very low. I tried to turn the volume down on the right one and the volume knob...

This is a Southern Gospel song that I recorded on the MR-8. I can't believe how much it degraded it converting to mp3, but I guess that is to be expected. It is a song called Out of the Blue. I used a soundtrack and did the lead, tenor, and baritone vocals myself (it's kinda cool to be a one man...

Just bought some new monitors. The first I've ever had. I want to hook them to my PC. My question is how do I get two 1/4" plugs into one 1/8" hole????? I figured since so many folks are using their PCs now to record and mix that the monitors would be made to be hooked up to PCs. I guess not??

I bought some M-Audio Studiophile SP-5B monitors. Can anyone give me some help on how I'm supposed to hook them to my pc? I have two 1/4" cords coming from the monitors that are going to have to go in one 1/8" hole on my pc?????

Here is the scenario. I have recorded the lead vocal on a song. Now I want to go back and record the harmony parts on the chorus. Instead of going back and playing the whole song again, how do I just play back the parts where I want to record the harmonies? Also, will this still sync up right...

If I am buying a inexpensive (less than $200) condenser to be used primarily for vocals and it is the only condenser that I will have (until I can afford another) should I be looking at a large or small diaphram condenser?

Just wondering what inexpensive condenser studio mic some of you experienced folks in this forum thought would be good for my voice? I use a Fostex MR-8. I will be using Mackie mixer for preamps if I don't get a battery powered condenser. The vocals on the recording were done using a Shure beta...

Check out another mix of bdbuck's song The King's Gold. This should not be considered a final mix. Just something that I whipped up using the MR-8 and n-track to show some of the folks that are considering a MR-8 what they can do with it in conjunction with n-track and a PC. Mix was done on the...

I've transferred wav files from a CD on my PC to the MR-8 with no problem. I've even transferred files that were not made with the MR-8 to the MR-8 with no problem. So now for some reason I can't transfer tracks made with the MR-8 back to my PC? I did change the names of the tracks after...

Went out of town for a week and took a demo of a project I've been working on for a while. I've just left it sitting for awhile, but had the idea that I would make a cassette of what I have and listen to it on the car stereo to see what it might need. There were 8 songs on the cassette and all...

I hope to in the near future record with a live band, but right now just don't know that many musicians close by. I perform and record with pre-recorded soundtracks. I am recently finishing up a project. Just wodering if anyone had any advice on how I would best make my vocals "sit" in the mix...

Just wanted ya'll to know (if you don't already) about a great mastering compressor that is free called endorphin. Get it at: www.digitalfishphones.com

What is the spec or term used on mixers to see if they have the capability of having separate headphone or monitor mixes? I'm getting a little mixed up when shopping for a new mixer.

For you guys/gals that are using an external preamps with your fostex recorders (especially digital) what are you using?

I know this is the wrong forum to be asking this, but I asked the same question on the "mixing and mastering" forum in a thread about monitors and was totally ignored. I was probably ignored because they were too busy in a big argument about what is the best studio monitor. I'm not interested in...

Anyone know how much a pair of Bose 802 series 2 speakers without the controller might be worth? They were purchased approx. 8 years ago.

I am going to finally get to downloading tracks to my PC from the MR-8 and have n-track. Someone was saying in an earlier thread about how you have to name the wav files and I can't remember or find how and why they said to do this.
