A friend asked me to help him get his second CD produced.
He just sent me three mp3s of new songs. Each with just a few tracks, I think 5 at most on the last song. Anyway, I have a BR1180 & lots of outboard gear, and he has recorded with N-tracks I believe.
I'm not sure what the best way to get his tracks to my recorder is. For those of you familiar, My unit can import wav files. I'm not sure what will work best. Is it possible to just have him burn his individual tracks to a cd? Then I would have the task of getting them all sync'ed together on my machine to remix, bounce to a stereo mix, and master for the final cd. The sync thing is the only real problem, right now. Or, will n-tracks when formatted to wav files, send info that the 1180 will be able to separate as tracks I can sync, and use? I haven't tried this before at all. I've done lot's of mixing, mastering...but with "MY Machines".
Sorry about the silly way this sounds, but, not being familiar with any other recording systems other than the 1180, a tascam 424 mk3, and an old Ross 4x4, has me at a serious disadvantage.
help?
