    Problem with Reading Compact Flash Card

    Hi Recently my BR-864 stopped recognizing the card. I've tried several cards with the same result. After inserting, the display simply blinks the "BR-864" display. Does anyone have any idea what could be wrong? How to fix it? Thks

    Groove Agent plug-in. How do I record?

    I recently began experimenting with drum tracks using the Groove Agent plug-in (using Tracktion as the host). While it's easy to use the plug-in within the host, I don't know how to get it to record onto to a track! :confused: Any help would be greatly appreciated! :o Thanks

    Compatible CF Cards for BR-864?

    I've got a BR-864 on the way and plan on buying a 512 mg card. The BR-864 on-line manual simply states that CF card must be 3.3 volt and NOT Type II. It "recommends" DELKIN but I presume that's not a limitation. Does it matter which CF card I buy as long as it's Type I and 3.3 volts? For...

    Behringer 602A

    Does this mixer have the capability of handling a condensor mic (requiring phantom power) and an SM57 simultaneously? Isn't the phantom power applicable to all channels when turned on? Is it an alternative to turn the phantom power from the mixer off and use a separate mic preamp (eg ART Tube...

    Creating drum tracks

    Here's the deal: There are plenty of places to download wav drum samples, but they are typically only a couple of bars long. How can I use these wav files to create a full drum track in n-track (or using some other software)? Is there a feature within n-track which allows the user to repeat...

    Traynor YCV 40

    Bought this amp (tube; 40 watts; 1x12) last night. For $600 plus tax CDN, I'm laughing. I'm not going to blabber on about its virtues - just wanna suggest that you try one out if your looking to buy an amp within that class.

    Mixing levels

    You have recorded the various tracks of a song, and now are ready to mix. What's the proper approach re: faders? Keep the master at 12:00/centre and manipulate the channel faders until the relative volumes are ok without the playback vu clipping, OR bring the master down, mix the channel...

    Kahler tremelos suck.

    Of course, I don't use wang bars. But it's kinda funny when you basically need a tool box to change a string (clipper, hex key, vise grips). Just a gripe.........

    Question for BBB......

    A month or two back, someone posted a link to a MP3 featuring guitar recorded via a digital or ss amp. I'm pretty sure it was in the context of one of those tube vs POD/SS/DIG debates (perhaps SN-8 started it). Was it you? If yes, could you direct me to the MP3? If it wasn't you, sorry for...

    Blue Bear

    Steve's Music (Toronto location) just quoted me $260 for the Tannoy Proto J monitors. I know you probably don't have much to do with cheaper gear, but do you know if this is a fair price? St. John's is not a fair comparison (local shop here cannot do better than $400 - but everything is...

    What to do...

    Here's the situation: I record one track/source at a time using PC software (not recording multiple sources simultaneously) I generally use POD for electric guitars and bass (directly into soundcard) Having spent too much $$ on other things, I run mic's and drum machine (if not using Fruity)...

    Flakey PC

    This is probably a general computer question, but hopefully someone can help (I've tried other forums w/o success). Since installing a new soundcard (Ensoniq 16 bit) and modem (US Robotics), my PC tends to occasionally reboot automatically. It has happened a couple of times while using ntrack...

    Alcivar Info Wanted

    Anyone know anything about Alcivar guitars? One of my first electrics was an Alcivar strat copy (right down to the headstock design) purchased sometime around 1979 (give or take a year or two). It "had" a maple neck/fretboard (since replaced) and has a beautiful ash body. It was possibly...

    Ugly Guitars

    The inspiration for this thread? I just saw one of those 1995 Std Strats (red in this case) with the matching colored headstock on ebay. Thank god for this forum because I needed somwhere to express my feelings of how ugly that is! It looks like a someone took a typical strat and dipped the...

    Amp Advice Wanted

    I presently own a Marshall JCM 800 50w 2x12 combo which I purchased in early eighties. I don't play in bands anymore - only play in my music room/studio in my basement (primarily recording). The Marshall is no longer being used since I can't exactly open it up to get a decent sound anymore...

    What soundcard is best for me?

    I realize that this has probably been asked before (just can't find anything via cursory search of forum), but here goes. I have a crappy soundcard (it's a C-Media with flaky inputs/outputs). I'd prefer to get a soundcard with 2 line-in's and 2 line-outs (not as crucial as the line-in's - one...

    Editing MP3's or WAV's

    I'm pretty new to this whole computer recording thing. Using n-Track, I rendered (mixed down) my first song recently to both a WAV and MP3 file. How do I edit each (or either) file to cut out the silent beginning and end? Is there particular software for doing this? If yes, what's the best...
