Do yourself a favor and buy the Yamaha MU15 with 676 high-quality sounds. You can probably purchase one for less than $300 USD at your local music dealer. The XG (GM) sounds, three internal effects processors and 21 drum kits are fantastic! I have yet to hear ANY soundfont GM collection that...

Don't fret....I think you're about there now. What the FAQ is saying is that you have MIDI tracks that are playing. Now you are going to mix them all into a stereo audio track. Do this. Select an unused track. Usually, since you've been working in MIDI, CW will probably assume you want the...

Thanks for the reply.... When I asked CW they just came back with the standard..... we don't recommend using more than one sound card. They are like robots with that reply. I've heard it before. I really just wanted them to tell me if I enabled the record on a specific track does that...

Sorry...didn't mean to reference the same CW article mentioned earlier by garrigus. Must be a popular one.

andyesk, I'm not sure why you are not recording in Cakewalk instead of the Creative recorder. At any rate... from what you wrote, I gather that you have recorded with the Creative recorder and imported (inserted) the audio file into Cakewalk. That's ok to do, though you should be able to do...

I'm game..... keep me in the loop. I've got a pretty nice mixing setup that is great for such a project. I use the Peavey StudioMix with CW PA9 and various other gadgets. I like the idea of individual mp3 files for the various parts. Each can be imported into projects as needed. Sounds...

If you are using a SB Live I believe you're gonna have a problem with that since the SB mixer only lets you select one input to record from at a time. Just a thought. I hear a lot of folks choose to use the Windows mixer instead of the SB Live mixer for reasons such as this. pete o

That's a good suggestion, Scott. I just saw that faq on their site yesterday. It should answer this post quite well. pete o

Hi gang, I've been off of the BBS for a while concentrating on a recording project. I'm not a newbie by any means but I need to know if anyone has tried this configuration or experienced this problem. I'm trying to use two sound cards, one for mains and one for a headphone monitoring mix. I...

I have FX1, 2 , and 3. They are somewhat limited but my biggest complaint is that the presets are pretty useless. Most of them are overkill. I don't know of any style of music that uses such wet reverbs and delays. Use of these types of presets are sure to muddy up even the best of...

I have that but don't use it much. I would like to though. Which preset did you use or did you creat one of your own?

I use a SB Live! as well and I have a pretty extensive set of sound fonts but none compare to the dedicated drum machines I have. I'm sure with some effects and EQ you could beef them up to sound pretty good. However, when I record I generally have enough things to do to get the overall sound...

Hi Dave, I don't use them much personally but I may be able to shine some light on the subject. The main purpose is to be able to send a variety of input channel material (audio from your inputs) to an external device or just create an extra mix. In the "external device" category you could...

I would recommend using MIDI drums but I haven't heard a lot of sound cards with good drums. I think the drum machines of today have about the best drum sounds you'll find and they come with built-in patterns for all styles of music. You can convert the patterns to MIDI in Cool Edit (I'm...

Sounds like maybe what you are recording is being played back through the Live's output and then back into the input again. This causes excessive signal gain (distortion) as well as a phase problem since technically there is some delay there in the two signals. I had that happen to me when I...

Glad to hear things are better for ya....I must have caught that same recording bug. I, like you, use what I have and "make it work". I'm pretty happy with the set up I have now and hope to add a dedicated hard drive as well. Thanks for the compliment on the Ecoustic and most of all thanks...

Sorry, no experience with that mixer... I have a Peavey RSM I'm real pleased with. Worth checking out. Good luck....pete o
