I just have to say BAD BAD attitudes! sigh. OMG you dont make any sense! You are CRAPPY teachers! Cause im not recording any instrumentals! They are already recorded and in my computer! I think all i have to do is mix it with the vocals in Pro tools and then burn it from there. I already said that! And how do you get so hostile, you cant expect people to just know this stuff if you dont explain it clearly. I mean i appreciate the help but i dont really need all the BS! Have some patience geeeez!

We're just playing with you kiddo. If you've got it all figured out then go for it. Have fun syncing up those vocals.
 
If you are still trying to figure out whether you need a 4-track or a minidisc recorder, then I seriously think you should go out and get a 4-track. Why? Because it is obvious to me that you don't understand the answers to your questions because you don't understand the basic recording technology of multi-track recording. And you won't understand until you have the thing in your hands and you are pulling all the knobs and pressing buttons. In fact, I think every beginner should start off with a 4-track because otherwise the finer points that the more knowledgeable discuss are totally lost because of the perspective knowledge of working with such equipment isn't there in the first place.

Stay away from minidisc recorders, unless you want to waste your money on a format that has little redeeming audio value.

Interesting point. Ill take that into consideration.
No you won't -- you'll continue to ask the same question and getting the same answer over and over again.

I expect this to last indefinitely because it's been what, several months now? Same questions, same answers, same total lack of understanding..........

You're either an annoying troll, or a complete and total dimwit........ I can't tell which yet............
 
Actually ive asked all different types of questions about different things from microphones to preamps to computer software. And I have lots of friends and an IQ thats probably double yours. Not to mention im probably cooler than most of you old cantakerous farts in real life. So bitch all you want, but ive been getting the information I need, and there will still be cool people on the board who will help me if I have questions. MUhahahahahaha!

I'm only doing this because you started in with the personal insults. But how fuckin smart can you be if you don't even read the replies and how fuckin cool can you be if you are doing Karaoke music. :rolleyes:

An IQ thats double?

Since the average IQ is near a the 100 mark that would put you at around 200 minimum. Since you asked about minidisc recording... by default, logic and reasoning your statement about having double my IQ has to be false. I have lots of friends too and Im an cantankerous old fart in real life, which many find to be charming. So you not really calling me any names because most of its true.

They started it first poopface.

Considering you have may of the most experienced people here telling you repeatedly what you need in order to save YOU time and money it makes sense to start insulting everyone.

A few expressions regarding biting hands and gift horses come to mind.
 
I'll make this really easy for you:
1)Import/Rip the backing track into a stereo track in Pro-Tools/N-Track whatever
2)Plug mic into an input on your preamp
3)Plug output of preamp into input of soundcard/AD converter/etc...
4)Make sure the input from 3) is routed properly into your recording software (i.e. pro-tools/N-Track)
5)Arm this input to record
6)Hit RECORD
7)Sing away!!!!

If all this is done properly, you will hear the backing tracks play in your headphones while you record your vocals. The vocals will be sync'd up with the backing tracks.

Specific steps depend on your specific equipment, but the process is the same.
 
That's about 6.5 steps too many for this half-wit to comprehend.... good try though, Gordone! ;)
