recycle/ensoniq asr10

Posted by quinn on Fri, 09/01/2000 - 02:42.

...hello fellow asr lovers!!!! i'm having a bit of trouble transmitting chopped up files to the asr via midi from recycle. i have no trouble transmitting from the asr to recycle but when i try to send the sample back to the asr i get a message that says "failed transmitting a sample. please make sure there is enough memory left in the sampler." this occurs even though my sampler is empty, the midi sys-ex is on, the midi base channel is set to one on the asr and in oms, and the midi cables are hooked up properly. can anyone help me?????

What is recycle? I have an ASR10, but don't use it to sample. (Haven't had, or taken time to learn. What is the objective or recycling?

Re: recycle/ensoniq asr10

The objective of recycling is to make a green planet stay green for us and generations to come.
Steinberg Recycle is a computer program for slicing sounds in parts suitable for loops and what have you.

problem with musicmatch

Posted by anton on Thu, 08/31/2000 - 23:48.

I recently downloaded musicmatch while ripping a cd the message disk full while accessing the c drive.I cannot understand why i cannot remove this prompt & why it came up in the first place.

Re: problem with musicmatch

Posted by Dave on Thu, 11/23/2000 - 04:03.

I also have a serious problem with musicmatch. After I installed it I discovered that not only does it take forever to load and hog memory, but now my computers sound will only work when MM is running. In addition, it can only save playlists, not mp3 files as advertised and it's "radio" can only play selected stations. MM is just a parasite designed for crass corporate marketing

Re: problem with musicmatch

Posted by Robert Spencer on Thu, 09/07/2000 - 13:01.

Assuming you have a PC, right-click on the "My Computer" icon on your desktop, then right-click on your C drive, then select "properties". This should show you the capacity of your C drive and how much space is available. If you have a lot of wav files on your drive, convert them to mp3 files to compress and free-up space. You can always convert back to wav when needed.

You are in the right place, just have a look around. Visit some
program pages and read the posts on their message boards.

Midi nightmare - help me Obewan!

Posted by Johnno on Thu, 08/31/2000 - 21:29.

I'm running two computer systems: a PC with Logic, HD rec and softsynths - and an Atari running Notator sequencer only.

There are also a bunch of outboard synth and FX modules (served via a 1-in-8-out midi thru box) to and from which I need to send/receive sysex dumps and patch info.

Sometimes I want the Atari to be the boss, drive the external modules and the softsynths on the PC. In this case the PC is like an extra "module".

Other times I want the PC and Logic/SoundDiver to be in charge, with the flexibility that environments, editing etc provide.

This has presented me with what seems a midi configuration nightmare.

At the moment all I have in the way of midi routers are the thru box and a home-made midi switch that lets me route sysex dumps one at a time from the modules to the Atari. Rather klutzy but quite ok when there was only the Atari!

I have the loan of a Motu Midi Timepiece but so far it has gathered dust as I do not have the appropriate spare IRQs to run it. It's an older Motu version, has a huge ISA card, is obviously designed for Mac users and screwed with my well-working PC audio system. Enough self-torture :-)

Audio cards used are GadgetLabs Wave/4 (used for midi/audio) and SBLive Value (used for soundfonts).

Can some of you midi experts suggest what I need to have the whole rig working transparently together without constant re-plugging of midi cables and the one-at-a-time midi switch?

Thanks! Johnno

You being complicated aren't you?!

Posted by Steve on Thu, 08/31/2000 - 22:07.

Hi,

I've read you message over and over trying to find 'the quick solution' but my head is still spinning from what you are trying to do. I can't, at this stage, figure out why you need the Atari running a sequencer as well as a PC running a sequencer at the same time and wanting to swap them over master/slave. Midi is an annoying beast at the simpliest of times but you seem to be stretching the elastic there!

I suspect you would want to look into a sensible Midi PatchBay. Sell the Motu if you don't use it. I am too sleepy to even write your studio setup out and work out if it is possible mincing around with Midi interfaces and changing fundamental connections, sorry. I doubt you will eventually get away with sitting back and everything doesn't need fiddling with but you could probably get to a stage where you've programmed a Patch bay and it works all the boring stuff out for you...

Example below...

Best wishes

ANYTHING ELSE THEN MP3 WIZARD 2.0?

Posted by Ivan on Thu, 08/31/2000 - 19:35.

I BOUGHT THE PROGRAM CALLED "MP3 WIZARD 2.0". THE THING WAS THAT MY CD RECORDER WAS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THE PROGRAM.
SO MY QUESTION IT, IS THERE ANY OTHER PROGRAM BESIDES MP3 WIZARD 2.0 ??

MP3 WIZARD'S MAIN ATTRACTION IS THAT U CAN MAKE CDs

Starting over- which stuff to get?!

Posted by Sean on Thu, 08/31/2000 - 17:14.

Hello! I'm going to re-build my home mini-studio- I've already gotten rid of all my old, bulky samplers, effects and keyboards so that I could have more space in my small apartment. I kept one small keyboard to play into the computer- Can anyone suggest a program for the Mac that can sequence, sample, has an effects processor and able to record the songs to CD when it's done?

I used to work on Opcode Vision (6 years ago), but I don't think it has all of these features- what about Cakewalk or others?

Hi there

My suggestion is that you get a decent sequenser program like Emagics logic platinum with a
good soundcard like creamwares powersampler
(soundcard/sampler).With the latest version
which is 4.5,you can use logic as a digital
realtime mixer with effect plug-ins and all.....

How do I get all burned tunes to the same volume?

Posted by jonny_B on Thu, 08/31/2000 - 16:10.

Does anyone know of some downloadable software that will normalize all my mp3's or waves before I burn them? I'm tired of constantly adjusting my player volume after each track. I have nero burning software, but if that option is included, I haven't found it. JonnyB

Is there not a Filter in Nero to normalize? Have a look
for that.

Otherwise, check out <a href="/smm/programs/AudioCDMP3Studio/">AudioCD MP3 Studio 2000</a>

Best of luck.

VST Instrument nightmare with controller.

Posted by Ben Stacey on Thu, 08/31/2000 - 12:43.

For some reason my midi controller has a one second delay when using VST instruments & effects. I'm using a basic Roland pc-200 in 3.7 & Platinum Live Drive. I've tried to activate; Audio>system>Plug in delay compensation but no success here. Any ideas would be ace!

Re: VST Instrument nightmare with controller.

Posted by Dragon Pro 9 on Sat, 09/02/2000 - 02:17.

Go 2 Audio-System, and in the upper right is a drop down box with your current audio driver. Click the ASIO Control Panel and lower your buffer amount to as low as possible-and increment up until your sound is no longer distorted...

Try a program called MP3 to WAVE converter, it works great. You can get a free demo version that lasts for 20 conversions or something. Search the net for MP3 to WAVE converter.

Try these guys, http://www.musicrobot.com i found just about every tune i could think of as midi files. download the tune then use a sequencer to isolate the piano part then convert it to printed music. There's shareware that'll do all of the above. Bit of a hassle...But...
