In the record options window there should be a setting for "record offset" measure the delay from the guitar with the delay to the drums, and enter this number in the record offset before the next time you record. Everything should line up then (unless you are a little out of time ;-)

To fix the guitar part you should be able to unlock it and just move it.

: I am recording in cubase, I have a drum track and a bass track already down, I record my guitar part on top of it but when I play it back there is obviously a slight delay in the audio being recorded as my guitar track is slightly out of time with the other other two tracks. Is there any way to retify this or alternativley to edit the audio part and bring my first note back to the first beat of the bar?

: Hi ,

: cheers tak

Are you looking for PIANO Boogie ?
I may still have a few of my old books around .
It's my favorite kind of piano music as I was inspired to play by hearing a Boogie Woogie barrel house blues piano player about 25 years ago and I still play that stuff all the time.
You can incorporate Boogie Blues piano into most music.
I also learned to play by ear by listening to some Deep Purple and the Doors.
Get back to me if you still cant find what your looking for , I may be able to help you out when I find my books .
I'll just scan them .

What you consider decent quality is more than likely different to what I would consider decent quality. How can someone assess what might sound 'decent' when all the information you give on your recording chain is "Cheap Mic"?

Get yourself a decent small or large diaphragm condensor mic, something like a FMR RNP, a VTB1 or even an M-Audio Audiobuddy, some decent cables, learn a good acoustic guitar mic'ing technique, get a decent audio card and then you'll have a decent chance.

MusicMatch is pretty good, but I've become a fan of Media Jukebox recently.

What exactly are you trying to do. Sync the tempo with cakewalk or just get audio into the computer? I might be able to assist you a little

: What is a good sight to dj on?I guess not really dj but make your own beats.Hip hop beats.I forgot to add that I wanted the sight to be free.

Before recording you need to make sure you have an empty track selected as the record destination. Also, I belive cakewalk has a non-destructive multitrack meaning that any time you record it goes into it's own file. The multi track just referneces that file. When you "record over" a used track, the original wave file still exists on your computer, it is just behind the new recorded track. If you move the track you just recored to another track you should be able to see and hear the old track. That is the way Samplitude has worked since it's birth back in the eightys. I think the other major multitracks have caught up to this.

: we recorded a guitar track then we tried recording a vocal on another track-BUT- the guitar track was recorded with the vocal on the same channel-and was left on it's original track untouched. There was no way to undo it- it would have erased the vocal. We were not trying to bounce-we want everything on it's own track. Can anyone help?

Coda finale 2003 is good for that

John,

The people in this forum may have some good input on music related questions, but I don't think any one here is omnipotent.
