Re: download songs from napster

Apart from legal ramifications, I don't think a Hotmail account provides much disc space for this kind of thing.

asp. files???

I just downloaded a set from Nodzine and can't open it with anything I have. Does the Real Player open asp. files, or can anyone recommend something that will?

DOA-BMP Mix Help

Posted by Method on Sun, 06/17/2001 - 06:23.

I read the article on Hitsquad about DOA recording and my bruner does support DOA recording but I want to know what I need to do (novice here) to make a custom made club-like mix cd where songs mix into each other..but I don't want to just fade in and out I want to match beats and make it sound semi-professional. But I have no idea where to start and what to do. I just know what I want to do. So if you make club like mix cd's can you please tell me what I have to download or buy to do it myself.

Thanks

mp3 Remixer Version 2

Posted by Sue on Sun, 06/17/2001 - 04:04.

Can anyone tell me where I can get ReMixer MP3 to Wave Version 2, I already have version 1. Their information site said if you have trouble getting some mp3's to read, get version 2.

Thanks. Sue

Re: mp3 Remixer Version 2

Posted by Lisa on Sun, 06/17/2001 - 22:40.

I had a quick look but couldn't find this program. I'd like to play with it myself. Surely, their site would have a download page. maybe you should go back to it and have a look. I'd like the address if you have it. Sounds like an interesting program.

mp3 problems

Posted by Jim Swarthow on Sun, 06/17/2001 - 02:31.

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone can help me with this problem:
I have downloaded four mp3 files, one is 64 kbps and the others are 24 kbps. Well I changed them to 128 kbps and when I went to burn them they came out with a fast chipmunk voice (which has only happened with less then 128 kbps files). Is there anyway to get around this and burn them sounding right? Why exactly is this happening? Any help would be appreciated. My CD-RW is Sony Spressa CRX100E/X2 with the CD extreme software.

Thanks,
Jim

Re: mp3 problems

Posted by Lisa on Sun, 06/17/2001 - 22:42.

I don't know how to fix this one. But you do realize that burning at 128 isn't going to improve the sound of a 24kbps file, don't you?

Minimal size of a wav file

Posted by Nikos on Sat, 06/16/2001 - 22:46.

Which is the minimal size of a wav file containing 1 second of human speech?
Is there a way to record files containing human speech (one word in each file) and keep the size of each file less than 0,5 Kbytes (500 bytes)?
Which is the minimum possible file size for these files?

Alternate Time Signatures in Fruityloops?

Posted by Footybloke on Sat, 06/16/2001 - 20:55.

Fruity loops seems to be extremely powerful, but could someone explain to me how i can insert multiple time signatures within one song? Although you can change the global time signature setting for the life of me i can't figure out how to have different patterns in different times within one song.

I can't believe it seems to have been overlooked by its creators.

.asx to .mp3 or .wav??

Posted by Selecta on Sat, 06/16/2001 - 19:24.

Despite my hardest efforts to convert my .asx music files to eithe .mp3 or .wav i have constantly failed. I have searched for hours on the web trying to find a suitable convertor but haven't found one. Can anyone help me or suggest ways in which to do this??

Re: .asx to .mp3 or .wav??

Posted by Jorge on Sat, 07/13/2002 - 21:43.

Looking for these kind of conversion I found a solution. Try the program Total Recorder (www.http://www.highcriteria.com/download/tr34se.exe). You play the files *.asx with Windows Media Player, for exampple, and Total Recorder converts to *.wma.

are winamp media files the same as .wav?

Posted by E on Sat, 06/16/2001 - 18:56.

I just converted a bunch of mp3's using the discwrite feature in winamp. I burned these to a cd, but it won't play in my car. I have done other discs with another program with no problem. Any thoughts?

::In order to playback mp3's, wav's etc on an audio cd player, you need to convert the files to .cda format (.cda stands for cdaudio)
All other formats are for use on pc's.

Re: are winamp media files the same as .wav?

Posted by Lisa on Sun, 06/17/2001 - 22:52.

Don't forget that a Winamp Media File represents the software used to play the file and is not a particular format itself.

I think that fruity-loops is not programmed for real time playing, meaning that the latency will always be there. Nothing to do about it.....
There is a program called "Reason" which is real-time, but then the sequencer-part of the program is not very advanced.

Good luck

every program needed to start a studio

Posted by 250 on Sat, 06/16/2001 - 17:44.

what is every program needed to start a studio?

I am not going to lie to you.

Posted by Me the Dumb III on Thu, 06/21/2001 - 02:51.

Cubase 5
Wavelab 3
Reason
Gigasampler 64

All the VSTis and VST/DX plugs you can get. Start with the free ones.

After that, get free audio samples and loops from www.audiorank.com
get free giga instruments from www.worrasplace.com

Oh, and cd-burning software.

THAT IS ALL YOU NEED. THIS I GUARANTEE.

How long is a piece of string? :)

Seriously, it really depends on what kind of studio you want to start. If you're just working in a small room, you might be able to get away with a few programs. But if you're aiming to find the next big thing and record them, you could end up with several thousand dollars worth of expenses before you even lay down a track.

Here are some programs to check out:

You have to copy the whole track (to a file)to start with but...
Then, having copied the track (to a file)
edit the track with a .wav editor like the one supplied with Windows. Play the track until you know how much you want to keep. Make a note of the time interval (say 0:00:00.000 to 0:00:30.000) then cut the rest off by starting your selection at the end of the piece you want and ending it at the end! (Simple?) then save it as a .wav file.
After you have done this for all the files you desire, Make a cd of the collected finished works. Note that any copyright is still pertinant and you may wish to make sure of your rights before you start in a public quiz!
Use the excellent help supplied with easy cd creator for more info.
The whole job would be easier with, say, Sound Forge 5.0 but would cost a bit more and introduce another learning curve.
Good Luck.

andy p thanks it worked a treat never too old to learn

Re: help an oldie, need to copy first line of music from cd

Posted by Andy P on Sat, 06/16/2001 - 18:52.

The easiest way is to feed the sound you want to record into your sound card and use Windows Sound Recorder to record the music you want. Save this as a WAV file. You can then use Easy CD Creator to make a CD from them.

There are other programs which do a better job than Sound Recorder, but it'll give you an idea of what's involved.
