Re: Apology To Jason Horton

<font color="#0000FF">: I just wanted to let you know that i have reconsidered the nature of my use of computer bulletin boards. I do not wish to encourage trouble to breed. I believe in the proliferation of music and other forms of creative data, but not in the abuse of a decent site becoming a vehicle for political crossfires.

: Nevertheless, I wanted to truly leave a concluding note for anybody who has been noticing my interactions here. In short, my experiments and predictions have proved successful.

: On a lighter note, I suggest the book "Godel, Escher, Bach" for any other musicians with a keen interest in information theory. </font>

Sorry it's taken me a while to reply - but I've been
looking around to find something that you might need
to apologize for, and I can't find any need for an
apology!

Yours have been some of the most colorful and rewarding
messages on this message board.

Keep up the good.......... :)

Jason.

Hardware for Protools Free

I am curently using Protools Free, with limited success, on a 350MHz P2 w/512MB RAM the sound card is intagrated w/ the mother board.

I am in the market to buy a new computer & would like to gear it toward use with this software. Does anyone have any hardware recomendations i.e. sound card, amount of ram,hard drive type & speed ect.... Also what OS seems to work best with this software.

Pro Tools Purchase???!!!!

As a longtime Mac owner and Pro Tools user, I can't help but suggest that since you are at the point of buying a new computer, that you should get a Mac. I also suggest that you get at least a Digi001. They are a little cheaper now. I have a G4 and a Digi001, and it's an amazing set up., The sound is great and it's really hard to beat price wise for the quality that you get.

peace.

Sofar my Windows ME can't read any sound file through my WaMirac

I just install WaMirack 192 L sound card hardware on my PC (Windows ME) and also the drivers. WaMiRack Consol controler shows signals of sound going in, but no sound is going out. When i try to read Mp3 files or Audio CDs no sounds neither.
In "Control panel" > "System" > "Device Manager" at "Sound, video and game controler" we can see Wamirack drivers are there.
In "System" > "Sound and audio device manager" at "Audio tab" Wamirack driver are also selected.
So what is the problem...?
I'll be happy to read some advice.

Chords and Sequencer

Hello folks,
I need a software which can play chords of lead sheets. It should enable me to create a lead sheets by entering a chord sequence and play it in loops, like a virtual piano player.
Please contact me if someone has a good hint.

Thanks a lot

Sebastian

Re: Chords and Sequencer

I'm not sure what you mean by a leadsheet but Cubase SX and Orion Platinum both have Auto chord functions

surround

Hi, I'm new here and I have a question about mixing audio tracks. Is there a way to send a specific track into a surround speaker. For example, if I have a home theater system with 2 front speakers, 1 center speaker and 2 surround speakers. I record a song containing multiple tracks (1 for the drums, one for the bass, one for the guitar and one for the keyboard.) If i want to send the guitar in to the SURROUND LEFT speaker, How do i do it?

Re: MusicMatch Jutebox

Hi. I am having real trouble getting music to my MP3 player from Music Match. It's probably me because I'm really not that computer literate. My son't friend taught me how to download music and I go do that. I put it into an MP 3 folder and can move the music to MUSIC MATCH JUTEBOX but then I get lost. I can't seem to move the music to the MP3 player. Is there anyone who can help me out? I am a runner and use my music to run every few days but without it I'm lost and so unhappy. Thanks anyone.

Akai MPC 2000 operating system software

Akai MPC 2000 operating system software

This popular thread has been given its own page : Akai MPC 2000 operating system software

I need help converting an ACD file to an MP3 file on Acid Pro 4.

Well, Everytime I try to convert an ACD file on Acid Pro, I always end up with an MP3 that goes like 50 million times the tempo of the original recording. Can someone please help me and point me in the correct direction on converting. It's starting to piss me off. I need the mp3's for posting on mp3.com to advertise my band.

Thank you, anyone who can help.

Jacob.

Chimpmunks bothering you?

You are probably saving your mp3 as an mp3 pro file, or converting it at a rate lower than the industry standard of 44 khz.

When you play a lower frequency recording at a higher rate of speed, you get chimpmunks. It's kinda like an LP played at 45 speed.

If I remember correctly, it is called a sampling rate??

:)

Re: Chimpmunks bothering you?

I seriously don't know how to save the Acid pro work i do to mp3. It bugs me that i dont know what to do, any help appreciated!

acoustic characteristics

Couls someone please tell me what diagnostic techniques i need to use to determine a room's acoustic characteristics. I am familiar with RT60, absoption co-efficiencies and acoustical isolation, but do not know how to calculate them and in what order. I need this in as black&White terms as possible.
Your help would be very much appreciated.

Re: Can't view few avi movies I downloaded

You probably need the DivX player which will decode the AVI files for you. The AVI files were probably encoded using the DIVX codec. You can get the player at <a href="http://www.divx.com/divx/">http://www.divx.com/divx/</a>
