    Fruity Loops/Acid Question

    Hey, You're welcome. I've never actually tried this, but in theory it should work. We used to use MIDI Yoke to MTC sync Cool Edit and Vegas together and it worked fine; sometimes though things crash or behave erratically when both programs are fighting to control the soundcard. If worse comes...

    Levels

    Hey, My favorite way is to turn EVERYTHING down, then slowly turn everything up until your final mix is just a little below 0dB. And if you find that something isn't loud enough, turn other stuff down instead of turning the quiet part up, otherwise you risk making a big muddy mess of things...

    Mpc4000 help...

    Hey, Not familiar with the MPC4k, but I'm absolutely sure that there is something called a Low Pass Filter (LPF) in the signal chain which will allow you to remove the higher frequencies by lowering the Cutoff value. Take care, Nick

    mpc bassline problem

    Hey, Is there a 'legato' feature on the MPC? This will make sure that no notes overlap each other without having to manually change each note's length. Nick

    Help w/ Akai s950 - volume way too low

    Hey, If I' not mistaken: 1. The turntable needs to go through the dj-mixer to get boosted to line-level. 2. Both samplers are already line-level, so they don't need to go through the dj-mixer. With this in mind: 1. Once the turntable has gone through the mixer, it is at a...

    Pentium 4 vs. Celeron

    Hey, I won't go into the technical details, but what it boils down to is that the Celerons have smaller cache than the Pentiums and they run on a maximum 400mhz system bus. Myth: Celerons are designed to do only emails and Word. Fact: It doesn't take much more than a PI to do email and...

    Turntable Preamp

    Hey, You need a preamp that has RIAA eq's and a ground plug. As Fade as correctly pointed out, a dj mixer will have such a preamp in it. You can also buy standalone phono preamps from your local audio shop, they're usually less than $40. Take care, Nick

    Fruity Loops/Acid Question

    Hey, Yes, you can do this provided that your soundcard has multi-client drivers which will allow two programs to have access to the card. You'll need something called a virtual MIDI cable, there are only a few out there so it shouldn't be too hard to decide which one to use. Basically...

    {<<<< Optimus Prime >>>>}

    Hey, That x-entertainment.com site is a real trip down memory lane. Most of the stuff there is from the 80's, we really did dress like that and had stupid bowl haircuts. Ah yes, the delicious 3PO's cereal, guaranteed to give you the runs if you ate too much. The box had a 'mask' you...

    mic pre amp question

    Hey, In a nutshell, it's and electric current sent from a power source up the xlr cable into the mic....once the mic gets this power, it 'turns on' and will send back any signal it picks up. You can get them for as low as $40 if you look around. A lot of mixers will come with phantom...

    Hey, I was a mod at one time, but not a very good one: I wanted to ban Fade and run this place myself. Fade droped me down to Bitch status instead. Nick

    MSBlaster.exe worm

    Hey, True, true, our Macs rarely (if ever) had problems with viruses...I'll remember that when people ask 'which is better'. Nick

    MSBlaster.exe worm

    Hey, On the side I do networking and had come across a problem with some of the machines I service, wanted to share this with you guys. There is a 'worm' on the internet (sort of like a virus) which is causing all sorts of problems with computers, especially home computers which may not...

    Do It Yourself and enjoy the benefits!

    Dacalion, That's GREAT that you built your own enclosure, I've got to try that. If you were to buy such a thing ready made, what would it be called and where would you find one? Question: What are the '2 dbx subharmonic synths'? Take care, Nick

    Cubase Sx!!

    Hey, 1. You can make the track in Cubase, but you will need some source of sounds. Cubase somes with some soft synths, but you may tire of them quickly...you may be able to run Fruity Loops as a vitrual instrument from within Cubase. 2. Latency: in the softsynth world, latency refers to...
