Confused Things
Ok, here we go folks. Mister man here (that would be yours truly, that being me) has a Roland JX-305 and Cool Edit Pro 1.2. I do not like midi, which is probably a good thing since Cool Edit Pro doesn't like Midi either. (You have just read a good thing.)
Bad thing:
I have a few tunes on my synth which I'd like to transfer to the computer to edit in the multitrack and add some vocals to. The problem is this: syncronization. It's ok with some tracks, I rely on my own, let's say, ability... I simply match up the tracks and cut my loops here there and everywhere. But when I'm recording reggae tracks, songs with irregular timing, and anything with a drum beat that stutters, it's a bit more difficult to match things up.
The Last Thing:
What the hell can I do to make things easier on myself? Is there anyway that I can make the synth send a signal when I start playing and recording each individual track (bass, rhodes, drums, etc.) from the synth to the computer so that at the end it's just a matter of visually lining them up? Can CEP do this itself? I know this is long-winded and all mumbly, but I'm screwed in the head, I just know I am, just one of those things...
Help.
