    new coundcard working for everything except shit in Reason 2.0

    Hey, Only a guess....Reason and Wavelab are probably using ASIO drivers, maybe they don't support previewing mp3's? Cool Edit uses WDM/MME drivers, the driver thing is a critical difference between these programs. A test would be to use a WDM/MME driver in Reason or Wavelab, then seeing if...

    vst latency

    Hey, Yeah, Macs and PCs both do the same thing, they crunch numbers. The current Mac is supposed to be super fast, but a PC will overtake it eventually....then Mac will overtake the PC, and the PC will overtake the Mac etc. One is not inherantly better than the other. They both steal (or...

    vst latency

    Hey, 1. MOTU + PC = Garbage. Macintosh Only, Thank U. 2. Audigy + ASIO = Garbage. 3. Two soundcards in the same computer = Asking for trouble. Why do you have two cards running? And why would it not be a problem that you have the 828 as your soundcard? If I had your system, I would...

    cool edit to cubase

    Hey, I've been a Cubase/CEP user for many many years now...before SX came out you used to be able to send audio files into CEP from Cubase directly, edit them, save them, then bring them back into Cubase without having to shut anything down. Now with SX they want you to use their own...

    Mac G5

    Hey, Laptop G4 does not equal desktop G4. While the chips may be similar or the same, there are other things to take into cosideration, like bus speed, drive speed, ram speed, heat, etc. Laptops are designed to be portable and their speed is secondary; desktops are designed to be fast...

    chopping breaks is so fucking wack

    Hey, Is it worth the trouble? HELL YES. I love nothing more than to sit down with a couple illegal drum samples, a freshly installed copy of CEP, and a few hours of work trying to make my own drum patterns out of everything. It is SO satisfying to figure out different ways of taking elements...

    how long do you normally spend on a track

    Messenger, Most of the stuff you hear on the radio sounds like it was done in 15 minutes. There is NOTHING wrong with taking an hour to shop some stuff up. If it makes you feel any better, I spend MONTHS on a track, switching out drums, changing synth sounds, editing, mixing, recording...

    DJ Premier's style a mathematical formula?

    Hey, You CAN punch in numbers and generate a tune, it's called 'algorithmic composing', a lot of weird electronic guys are really into it because they can come up with stuff that they otherwise wouldn't be able to conceive on their own, sample it, then use it with traditional music composing...

    monitor headphones vs monitor speakers

    Hey, To get a true representation of your music, you should monitor with speakers...the biggest reason I've heard about is because your ears hear audio from both speakers, which is how the music will be listened to in a car, home stereo, etc.; with headphones, you are getting discreet...

    exporting audio out of cakewalk homestudio 2k4xl

    Hey, Are you burning the files as DATA or as AUDIO? Their softwares should be able to read both RIFF and broadcast WAV files, it sounds like they're trying to open the little .cda links from an audio disc that you made for them...this is a problem, as a .cda file is nothing more than a...

    Mac G5

    Hey, 1. You won't be able to use older PCI cards, or you'll have to update your current ones to match the voltage settings of the G5. 2. It costs a lot of money. Other than that, I've heard some pretty amazing things about its speed... Take care, Nick

    Vitaminman / PDog album art

    Hey, I HAD to share this with someone... This is a portrait painted by a friend of mine of a rapper we're producing, we're going to release a 5 track EP and use this painting as the cover for our vinyl release. It took about 4 hours total to paint, a couple Rock Stars and MGD's, and one...

    Laptop and a Desktop , How smart are you?

    Hey, There may be a way... http://echoaudio.com/Products/Laptop/index.php This is a PCMCIA card which you can connect the 24-bit Layla interface to a laptop...you MAY be able to hook up the older 20-bit Layla interface, but I would at least ask Echo before running out to buy anything...

    Hillarious album covers

    Hey, Man, I would love to see Kind Diamond/Mercyful Fate play live. In spite of the corniness, I really like 80's metal bands becuase at the time it was really pushing the envelope of what pissed people off, with the whole satan and suicide thing. Nick

    can someone help mw with this Cool Edit problem?

    Hey, You probably need to change your ASPI layer, follow the directions on this site: http://radified.com/ASPI/forceaspi.htm You'll have to reboot your machine after you've installed everything. Take care, Nick
