    Bass Strings

    I'm having trouble getting a good recording of my bass. I played bass in bands in the '70's, using a Fender Jazzbass with Rotosound round wound strings. For playing with a band I'd get a lot of "punch", but when I record, the strings sound way to bright and noisy, like finger noise on an...

    Hafler monitors at MF

    Musician's friend is offering Hafler M5 monitors with a Hafler 50-watt amp for $299.00 US and free shipping. Seems like a pretty good deal for low-cost monitors. Anyone have any experience with these? I've seen some comments regarding Hafler amps but very few about their monitors. Thanks.

    cakewalk...... dumb question

    So I'm re-installing PA9 tonight, and every time I get to the serial number screen, I type in the number and it says "please enter serial number", and I can't get by this screen. I'm not the smartest guy in the world, but I ought to be able to install god-damned software that I've installed...

    computer (fan) noise

    As I get better recording equipment and start to learn how to use it, the noise my computer makes becomes more obvious. I know that the fan is noisy - any recommendations as to what to replace it with? Is the fan the only source of noise? I know putting the computer in another room can help...

    PA9 and sample rate

    I'm thinking of upgrading to PA9 and/or Sonar from GT2. I have a Gina 24 card, which supports 24bit/ 96k. Cakewalk allows for 24 to 16 bit conversion for CD burning, but has no provision for sample rate conversion. So what do I do? Record everything at 44.1k? Record at 48k or 96k and...

    Sample rate/bit depth conversion

    I'm recording with a Gina 24 soundcard , and I'm familiar with Cakewalk, so I'd like to use Pro Audio 9 (it's on sale now, and it's upgradeable to Sonar). This will allow me to record at 24/96. I've read a number of opinions for recording at the highest sample rate and bit depth possible and...

    Cakewalk and Monster MX400

    I'm using Cakewalk Guitar tracks 2 with a Monster Sound MX400 soundcard; both have been recently installed. When I record a second track and play back the two together, they play at different speeds. They start out together but begin to diverge, and after about 20 seconds I can't listen...
