i'm rather new to the world of digital recording...having two learning curves to master:The PC and Sonar xl. i'm running sonarxl w/A7V333MOTHERBOARD, 1gig athlon, win 2000 pro and 528 megs DDR333 SDRAM, Edirol ua-5 sound card. i'm getting good results experimenting with different latency settings etc. the problem? it seems I can't stop random clicks and pops from creeping up in the track.

What can these be used for?
What is their best use?
How do you wire one of these up to a console?
If you're wiring one to a patchbay, how?
The thing just has screws on the back?
How to use it?
Are they really desirable? If decide to get rid of this one would it be terribly difficult and how much?

Now I'm really confused...
I've been going back and forth between Twelve Tone Systems(Cakewalk) and Digital Audio Labs(DAL) on a question regarding burning Audio CD's.
Cakewalk gave me a sample rate conversion process which uses my soundcard's ability to manually change sample rates.
Here is the link of how to do this.
Partition Magic

I am trying to record 16-24 tracks of audio in the PC without using a mixer and external preamps. Please recommend a souncard having its own preamps?

Phase problems/anomalies are pratically a thing impossible to correct on a ProTool daw(and maybe on most daws).

Here I don't mean just switching out of phase or tweaking with sample shifts BUT SUBSAMPLES SHIFT, expressed in samples or, the better, in degrees rotation.

Someone has clues where to find TDM pluginsusing DSP)?

Can any sampling "experts" or aficianados in here tell this novice how one goes about sampling, for instance, the drum parts of a song from a CD (input from a CD player) without the sounds of other instruments/voices in the song mix getting into the sample (i.e., isolating the drum parts)? Does this require a particular kind of gear (or software)? Many advance thanks for your advice.

Hi All,

Im going to be doing some live recording for a worship band in early november and Im after a little advice regarding mic-ing up the congregation.

i just got my pro tools HD system up and running

is there a feature known as step recording that I am not aware of, or is this a seperate plugin

thanks

Hey, Opus - Just read a blurb somewhere that claimed that enabling ACPI on XP causes it to share IRQ between audio and video. Don't remember if that was only for onboard audio, sounds kinda wierd anyway - I know you were playing with ACPI the last I heard, any meat to this? Is ACPI a no-no for XP, or has it been working for you?

When recording a source I'm constantly trying to figure out how to get the maximum sound level before overdriving my pre. For instance when I stick my u195 in front of my plexi cabinet, I fool with my pre for hours trying to get a good balance between my output gain and input sensitivity. Where's a good starting point?
