Help Help Help, Anyone know how to find the associated Wav file for a sound blip used in Cakewalk 9? There's got to be a way to do that, right? (ie - I wanna take the original Wav file recorded in CW and alter it in another program). I can Record numbers and Take numbers but not the actual file...

Help! My burner is on the fritz. All recordings suddenly sound slightly distorted, and not in a good way. If I need to purchase a new burner, what's a good one to get? Muchos gracias for any help, steve

Hi. Sorry if this has been answered ad nauseum, but I'm totally confused about which mastering programs/CD writing programs to purchase, and if I need both. I am currently using an older version of Sound Forage and a free version Easy CD Creator from Roxio which came with my burner. I need a...

Sorry if this issue comes up every week here. I'm new to the world of MIDI and this problem is driving me bonkers. For some reason when I play MIDI tracks I occaisionally hear little random pops coming out of the speakers. I do not have this problem when listening to digital audio. The pops seem...

A rudimentary question: I have cakewalk 9.3 and a Delta 66 soundcard. I've been recording audio (as opposed to MIDI). Can I use outboard gear (like a reverb box) for mixing? How do I set it up? thanks, steve

I'm still sort of a newbie with Cakewalk 9 and this forum, so please excuse if this has been answered several times before. I'm very confused as to how you handle bouncing tracks to create more memory when the tracks in question are too loud and will peak and distort when mixed. Seems if you...

Hi. I asked this in the Cakewalk section, but no-one knew so I'll try here. I'm new to the CDR-writing software game... Anyone know how, when writing a CDR, to get/control a lead-in of time (ie - counted backward) before a song starts? Which programs allow you to do this? It would be great to...

Quick question: When burning a CD, does anyone know of a way to give a track lead-in time (ie - a backwards count-in) before it starts? Can it be done in Sound Forage? Wavelab? Easy CD Creator? Thanks, steve

Hey everyone. I'm a Midi Newbie (capital N) and I'm trying to figure out how to turn some Midi info into digital audio. I have looked at the CW site, and followed their instructions on routing the Midi sounds coming from the soundcard synth through the stereo input of the soundcard and recording...

Hello. A while ago I asked the list what format they liked to record in, and the consensus was that 24 bit 44.1 was the best because you could make CDs directly from these files. I now have a 24-bit track in PA9 ready to go and I can't burn it to CD. I'm using Easy CD Creator after I mix it down...

Heya. OK recording gurus, here is a puzzler for you. I am desperate... I use Cakewalk 9.02 and a Delta 66 soundcard to record audio. I haven't had any major problems recording before. So I'm in the middle of recoding a vocal track for a song and all of a sudden about one out of every 2 takes or...

Hey everyone. A while ago someone mentioned on here that the best thing to do when recording in the digital realm is use a higher bit length and sampling rate and then convert it down later. I just recorded a song in 24/96, and changed the bit rate in Cakewalk 9.02 to 16 before making a wav...

Hey everyone. I'm wondering what the best method is for moving a portion of an audio clip (ie-from a wav). Like if you've got a snare track and one hit is a little off and you'd like to move it forward a bit. What's the best way to do this with minimal pops and awkward dropouts. (At first...

Forgive me if this question sounds rudimentary. Any help would be very much, much appreciated. When you folks are mixing audio and you want to try to find a good level with the faders, what is the proper course of action with regards to making the faders stick, so that they don't revert back to...

Quick question: Just installed PA9. What is Audio X and what is it good for? If my sound card is not Audio X compatible (looks like the Delta 66 is not) how will this affect my setup? (help and literature are confusing on this subject) thanks. steve

Hey everyone. Trying to record in 24/96 mode for the first time and noticing I can't get very far before Cakewalk freezes up - both on recording and playback. I'm thinking the buffers need to be reset (no problems for 16/44.1). Any advice on what I should be setting them to? I'm like a babe in...

Hey all. I am currently mastering a song that sounds a little on the "cold" side - not enough high-highs in the mix and maybe not enough bass as well. It was done in 16-bit (there were a lot of tracks used). I'm finding that with the EQs I have here (Sound Forage 4.5, Cakewalk 8.04) it sounds...

Hey everyone. This question is not directly about Cakewalk per se, but you folks are really smart and I really love this forum. It has helped me out immensely in the past. Yesterday I made a CDR copy of a prerecorded CD and for some reason I decided to compare them. I noticed a slight...

Hey. There's been some weird stuff happening with my computer/Cakewalk lately (v. 8.04) - I was wondering if anyone out there has any advice for me. Here's my shpiel: I'm currently working on a song with 14 tracks of WAV audio, about half of them have been muted and archived. Recently I went to...
