Internally synching samplitude2496 to cakewalk

Posted by Tommy on Tue, 02/01/2000 - 04:53.

Hello!

I have followed every information sheet on cakewalk pro 8 and samplitude 2496. I am trying to internally synch the 2. I desire to do my midi recording and editing in cakewalk then synch it to samplitude2496 to record my audio tracks.

Any tricks? Any software midi routers? Any help?

Thanks, Tommy

This may be an impossible question - but does anyone know of software that
will convert the guitar tracks to TAB...?

Hello, you can use the "midi yoke junction" (freeware provided on the cakewalk site) to sync them with midi time code.

Connecting a turntable to the PC

Posted by Anthony Willingham on Tue, 02/01/2000 - 04:27.

Can anyone tell me the best way to connect a turntable to my PC so I can copy some Vinyl to CD?

Re: Connecting a turntable to the PC

Posted by CFB Software on Wed, 02/02/2000 - 12:24.

Connect the line-out of your stereo to the line-in of your soundcard. Alternatively, you need to connect a phono pre-amp between your turntable and the lin-in of your sound card.

I then put the RCA to the out on my mixer and the 1/8 inch to the in on my sound card.
Make sure the mixer on your computer is set to recive corectly.

Roland 8track midi sequencer for Mac powerbook 150

Posted by EMA-3 on Tue, 02/01/2000 - 01:36.

I'm interested in info on Roland 8 track midi sequencing software that would work on a Mac powerbook 150. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you,

Well, since ROLAND makes it's own "proprietary" hard-disk recording systems that are in direct competition with computer based recording (and also since their last foray into the home computer recording market fell into the mighty abyss!) they don't (and won't) make any software for the home computer. and other than using the SCSI format for sampler hard-drive archiving they haven't done a product for the mac platform. Although they support the USB platform with the EDIROL nameplate, software for recording on the P.C. or MAC from ROLAND is(to say the least) highly unlikely, regretfully ~~DAN~~

hybrid player

Posted by r.j.hernandez on Mon, 01/31/2000 - 22:58.

Last year one of the top pc mags had an article
about a company in Garden Grove , Ca. that developed,
and was going to market a cd player that would not
only play off the shelf cds, but would also play mp3
music. I've discussed this with a friend who is a
programmer and he says, it's a basic java code that
can enable a player to recognize mp3. I would like to know what ever happened to the company.

cd+g copy

Posted by Gram on Sat, 08/11/2001 - 15:17.

if you are looking at copying cd+g format on the ricoh mp7060s forget it, you will need a cdr that is compat with reading and writing cdg.
some yamaha/ultraplex and sony models support this. use cdrwin software for writing.

Re: cd+g copy

Posted by bl8 on Tue, 09/10/2002 - 01:42.

try downloading microstudio vr2.315
you will find this from www.mtu.com

when installed you may only copy/write 75 seconds
on the demo version
but this program will tell you if your cd writer is capable of writing cdg

if so you may download the upgrade version from mtu.com for $14.99

i was told my hp 9500i would not copy cdg but it works fine with microstudio.

i can back up / rewrite about 25 disks per hour

go to goldenhawk.com you might not have a writer capable of doing cd+g's. This web site can answer your questions....

Did you ever find an answer? I just went through this myself last month- CLONECD works best. You can get it at download.com but it only allows 1x writes unless you register it but it works great!

How To Make CDGs

The following is a simplified tutorial on how to rip/convert, and reconvert/burn MP3+CDG files.

Programs Needed:

CDRWin - available at www.goldenhawk.com
- check drive compatibility list to make sure your drive will recognize CDG discs
Mimic v1.10 - MUST be installed before WinCDG
WinCDG - vers. 0.60 (freeware) Windows MP3+CDG player
- vers. 1.20 (shareware) Windows MP3+CDG player; limited to 60 sec. playing time
- *NOTE* both MP3 & CDG file must share the exact same name in order to be played
(ie. Garth Brooks-The Dance.mp3 + Garth Brooks-The Dance.cdg)
MP3+G Toolz v1.5.6 - BIN/MP3+CDG conversion program & mass ZIP utility
StripCDG v0.2 - fixes doubled lyric lines in SAVA-SAVP series after conversion from BIN to MP3+CDG
- may also work in other situations
ZCMrun v0.1 - ZIP utility that will allow files to be run from within WINZIP
- must have vers. 8.0+

Extracting From CDs

1. Use CDRWin to extract BIN file from CD.

In EXTRACT DISC/TRACKS/SECTORS, set the following options:
- EXTRACT MODE : SELECT TRACKS
- READING OPTIONS : check RAW & CD+G
- ERROR RECOVERY : ABORT (default)
- JITTER CORRECTION : AUTO (default)
- DATA SPEED : set at 1/2 max. burner speed
(ie. a CD-R that has a max. burning
speed of 8x should be set at 4x)
- AUDIO SPEED : same as DATA SPEED
- READ RETRY COUNT : 0 (default)
- SUBCODE THRESHOLD : 300 (default)

Choose path & filename (no extension) in IMAGE FILENAME
(ie. c:\Work\track)

Pick which tracks are to be extracted in TRACK SELECTION. If more than one track is selected, tracks may be sequentially numbered by checking NAME FILES SEQUENTIALLY.
(ie. track01, track02, track03...)

2. Convert BIN file to MP3 & CDG files using MP3+G Toolz

Open WINDOWS EXPLORER to the folder where the BIN files created by CDRWin are stored. RIGHT CLICK on folder name listed in the FOLDERS section on the left side of WINDOWS EXPLORER. Choose BIN->MP3+G option. This will separate and convert any BIN files found in this folder, and in all sub-folders, from BIN to the separate MP3 & CDG files. Toggle REMOVE FILES AFTER & ZIP FILES AFTER if you wish these options to be done. REMOVE FILES will remove all working files after conversion while ZIP FILES AFTER will combine the MP3 & CDG files into one ZIP file. The filename for the MP3 & CDG files, and the ZIP file, will be transferred from the name of the BIN file.

*NOTE* BIN files will not be deleted if REMOVE FILES AFTER option is chosen. This is a small bug in the program. BIN files will have to be deleted manually. All other files will be removed.

Burning To CDs

1. Convert MP3 & CDG files to BIN file

Open WINDOWS EXPLORER to the folder where your MP3 & CDG files are stored. RIGHT CLICK on the folder name listed in the FOLDERS section on the left side of WINDOWS EXPLORER. Choose MP3+G->BIN selection. This will recombine the all the MP3 & CDG files found in this folder, and in all subfolders, together into BIN files . Toggle REMOVE FILES AFTERWARDS & ZIP FILES AFTER ENCODING if you wish these options to be done. The name of the BIN file will be transferred from the name of the CDG & MP3 files.

2. Using CDRWin to Burn onto CDs

In RECORD DISC, set the following options:
OPEN NEW SESSION : unchecked (default)
TEST MODE: unchecked (default)
USE DISC TRANSPORTER TO MAKE...: unchecked (default)
SPEED: MAX.

Choose LOAD TRACKS. Toggle CD+G on. Choose ADD to find and load all the BIN files you wish to add to your CD. Don't load any other type of file...just the BIN files. Once the tracks are chosen, order the tracks by dragging.

WMA to WAV

You will need a software called musicmatch, it can be found on download.com or at musicmatch.com. When you finish downloading the program, go to file and select convert. It can convert either wma or mp3 to wav.

WRONG!!!! MusicMatch won't let you convert WMA to anything but a different bitrate of WMA.

I'm downloading 'logic audio guidebook' right now from kazaa.com. For those who aren't familiar with it, it's a file sharing application/network like napster and the like.

I know it's frustrating looking for stuff that you can't find, but is all of this juvenile name calling good for anything except making this process ugly?
anyway, I think there is something about the way that this site is designed, that makes it easy to accidently repeat the previous comment when you want to send a follow-up message. When you go to the 'post followup' field, the previous message is already typed there in the field. changing this would probably eliminate the duplicate entries. Calling everyone a dickhead does nothing except make you feel cool. Grow up.

good luck ya'll

Posted by scotty on Sun, 11/18/2001 - 04:00.

Isnt the quick reference guide created by kurt hofmann good enough for you? For instance, click on "About the track mixer", and you'll find this: "All Track Mixer commands are in local menues associated with windows of this type. Therefore they are only visible when a window of this type is active." Now if that doesn't inform you I don't know will.

Looking for the manual? IT'S HERE!!

Posted by Noone on Tue, 11/13/2001 - 13:24.

I don't know why I'm bothering to help all of you lazy bastards, but searching for the manual myself on google, it was on the link after the link referring to this page, and that was in the first 10 matches!!!
Anyway a manual for logic audio is at: http://www.mp3clubpro.com/ghyslain/tutorial.html, it's not the official manual but it might as well be as its fairly comprehensive. And if you have any questions about it, which link it is, what language etc, you can go to hell you lazy bastard because if you think I'm ever going to visit this page again and answer those questions just do the world a favor and remove yourself from the gene pool (although if you are one of those people that comment probably will just go over your head). War.
