    Odd song timing, need help

    I am trying to copy a drum track of a song I want to cover. The song says the timing is 114 but when I run the track I made with the song, it starts out in time and ends up starting to be off time about 30 seconds in to the song. If I go to 115, it's definitely off time. Is there a way (I'm...

    Acoustica Beatcraft owners - question!

    I'm trying to make a duplicate drum track of "Flood" - Jars of Clay and I've found that at 114BPM, the drum track starts in sync but roughly 10 seconds later it drags behind the original song's BPM. So, I checked around and everything I have checked out says it's 114bpm. That's what I have my...

    Need to hire a keyboardist for a small online collaboration

    I need a keyboardist that can duplicate stringed instruments. I have a song I am covering and it has a very nice, but small and easy stringed section that I need to have done. I am willing to pay the right person for their time (must have PayPal). Anyone? Bueller?!

    Anyone understand how to figure this song out?

    Flood - Jars of Clay The D and G strings are tuned to B and E respectively. I was told there was a CAPO on the third fret, but then that doesn't explain this stupid tab. This has to be wrong: Ok… this song uses an alternate tuning where you drop the two middle strings to a “B” and an “E”...

    Help with vocals...

    I have 4 main vocals. Of those, each is tracked 4 times for a total of 16 tracks of voices. As a nOOb to mixing, I am so lost here. I have an older version of cakewalk which to me is easier to use to edit the wav files. I also have Adobe Audtion 1.5, which while it has all the neat bells and...

    Adobe Audition 1.5 Question (Since it used to be cool edit)

    I just got this software and I am wondering what's the easiest way to alter volume levels on various clips. Like when the vocals come in, drop the rest of the instruments by 3db or whatever the norm is. I have a bunch of areas I need to change the volume on but I have like 4 tracks for every...

    Adobe Audition

    Anyone use this software? Tried it at a friends today. What a pain! When editing the wav files you have to be excrutiatingly careful or you'll lose the whole wav. You can't edit two or more waves together at the same time. (IE matching up background vocals) Is this software even user...

    Acoustic recording options:

    I have one Mk319 mic. I could record at the sound hole or I could plug in to the guitar with either option going to the DMP3 to the compressor to the recorder. Should I just bone up and get another mic to utilize the best suggested way of recording acoustic via 2 mics?

    PodXT samples (for those wondering)

    Ok, I just picked the first Metallica riff that came to my head (well, it's not Metallica's song, they just did a great job on this cover). The following are samples from my PodXT. All I did was remove the cab effects, plug the Pod into my monitor speakers, mic the speakers with my 319 right...

    Help. Compressing existing tracks.

    I have a drum track in WAV format. I want to compress the track. How do I do that on my AW16G when it's on the recorder? Can I record onto the recorder by taking the stereo outs and plugging them into the compressor then into one of the other tracks? I am not sure how to do this! Any thoughts?

    DMp3>RNC settings.

    Can you guys tell me what settings you use for vocals and for instruments on the DMP3 and RNC. I'm using an Oktava Mark 319 for vocals. I know it's not the greatest but it works. For guitars I am using a new PodXT as I can't mic my amp in my apartment. Thanks.
