Re: Instrumental Music

: Hey does anyone know a good site to find instrumental versions of popular songs (Pop, R&B) in mp3 or wav form????

One site I have found is Jim's MIDI links at:

http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/6356/frame.html

There are links to most every type of music. All you
need is a MIDI player. If you do a search on MIDI you
can also find many more sites.

Challengeing problem for some pros:)

I was wondering if anyone could help me with a problem that I'm haveing. I have ,on my harddrive, a .bin file 700megs or so that has in it one data track and some audio tracks and no matter what I do, I can't seem to find a program that will extract any of them. Do you have and extractor programs/converters that could do the job or do you have an converter that will change this mode 2 bin to an iso or something? or get the music files out as waves or cda's etc.?

Re: Challengeing problem for some pros:)

Sounds like you got a pretty big audio program bin file with audio samples in it? Or whatever it may be...you can use bin2iso or even binchunker to extract all the files to a directory. But if there are cd audio files in it, you will have to use bin2iso to convert to iso and burn it to a cd. However, there are cd burning programs that will burn bin files if you have a burner!

700 Megs is a lot. I would try to use Cool edit. Open the file with the option *.*(all files). It will ask you then how to interpret the file. Give it the parameters you think your audio data has. It will open the file. you will hear some garbage where there's non-audio data and your audio track somewhere in the file.

Software for writing music - help!!

I'm looking for a free software program simply to transcribe music scores. Can anyone help?

Re: Software for writing music - help!!

: I'm looking for a free software program simply to transcribe music scores. Can anyone help?

Mark,
there are programs like that, but most of them aren't
> simply
at all.
Look out for demo versions, of Finale Allegro, NoteWorthy Composer, Cubase (Score) or
Capella (www.whc.de). Codamusic even has a new one for music notation beginners on their
webpage.
Regardless which, you have to dig a bit into the visual aspects of
written music to get readable results.

Greetings from Germany,

Suggestions for software or books for beginners?

I have a PC laptop and want to start recording basic songwriting tracks - not necessarily pristine or fancy - but finding it hard to know where to begin. Thanks.

Re: Suggestions for software or books for beginners?

LAPTOP !!! there are only a few sound cards for Laptops which enable you to create music without an external synth.....I know Roland do one....but I suspect your standard card has neither an on-board synth OR midi out.
You can still do it tho......just more effort.

Repost and I expect we can help.

CD burner question

I'm interested in getting a CD-Burner to mix down and
distribute my own music. I use Cakewalk, external
synths,Multisound sound card(with Proteus on board) and an
external mixer.

How would I get my final product to the CD burner?
Would I feed the mixer output back into the
sound card,then to the burner? What file format must
audio CD's be in? I'd like to gather as much info as I
can before buying to be sure I get the right hardware &
software. Thanks alot.

Help me

i'm a newbe at computers and i think i just have a basic pc.
What software do i need to get a cd burner running so i can burn my favourite music and games.
any help will be good.
thanks

Usually when you purchase a burner, it comes bundled with Software which will let you Format your files to CD-Audio format.

The source files must be 16bit Stereo 44.1khz Sample Rate (.wav or .aif) files

The CD-burning application will usually let you arrange the order of playback etc.

If you want to do some serious CD-Audio premastering, you will need to purchase more sophisticated software like Sonic Foundry's CD-Architect, or Gear

hope this helps

Re: CD burner question

I've been working with the Windows Media Encoder to
convert MP3's to *.asf format. Is there a way
to burn this file format to a CD so that the tune
will play in any standard audio CD (ie Home stereo
automobile).

Song in PowerPoint

I am very non-technical. All I want to do is make a PowerPoint presentation and when a slide comes on the screen I want a song to play. I need to know what format the song needs to be in and where I can get the song from on the web.

: I am very non-technical. All I want to do is make a PowerPoint presentation and when a slide comes on the screen I want a song to play. I need to know what format the song needs to be in and where I can get the song from on the web.

The cross-platform (for both PC and Mac) file type is .midi. I think MS PPoint does(or should)support that file type. If not then .wav is the windows default. Perhaps a search engine like Web Crawler will find your tune title or search midi and wav sites.

ROLANDMC303&CUBASE VST

I cannot link the roland to my port.pc via midi interface. first time user, what should be happening?
PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!

mc303

Do you have a copy of manual for mc303...just bought it second hand and can't make head or tail of it.

Re: mc303 (manual)

I too really need a manual for my mc-303 groovebox.
I bought the store's demo model, and it had no manual. :(

HELP!

Anyone with anything email me @ griv@berrick.com ...
Any correspondance would be greatly appreciated..

Copying a cd music onto computer

Okay, I am a newbie at this, however, there are times
I would like to send, (attach to email), a certain piece

Therefore, I would like to know how to copy a song from a

Does this take special software? If so, what?
