Converting MP3's
Damn that sux. I didn't ever have to do that. Maybe it was just my version. Actually I did it with PT 5.2 LE, PT 6.0 LE, PT 6.1.2 LE and PT 6.4 LE. Strange. -
Help Wit Setup!!!!!!
I would recommend getting a mixer with 4 aux sends, and a phono input. This way, everything can be hooked up the right way, without having to pull out cables, sending anything to anything, AND you won't ever have to have anything on "record ready" or turn your Mbox to "input" to hear everything... -
Using monitors with a laptop
Although you have powered monitors, I wouldn't use your soundcard as the main out. I would at least get some type of mixer first, but that's just me. Just remember that you won't have a physical knob to turn up or down before your monitors. This will be a pain in your ass if you leave the... -
Compressin' and Reverbib' vocals.
Okay this is how it works in a real in-line console, or "mixer", to clarify what Formant meant: Each channel has sends or "aux" (auxillary) sends (sometimes up to 6, sometimes only 1 or 2 sends per channel). In the back of the board, there are send outputs that you plug into your reverb units... -
Reverb On Drums
Acoustically, drums sound good with reverb on them. With rock bands, it's common to put room mics far from the source to get the natural sound of the room, and you sum this up with the drum mix. Some bands like to have the room sound be really present in the mix, while others prefer it to be... -
Converting MP3's
Pro Tools SAYS you have to buy the mp3 option, BUT... it's always worked for me to import mp3s into my session. I think the mp3 option is only for exporting to mp3s and not importing to a track. Have you tried that yet? Just go to "import audio" or "import audio to track" and it should work... -
Laptop?
I would get a mac if I were you, but that could be just cuz I'm a mac addict. They're VERY reliable though, but I don't think FL works on it. You can get Reason, Pro Tools, Digital Performer, Nuendo, Logic, and a whole bunch more programs that are sick. Also the other propellerhead software... -
How long does it take?
It all depends what my plans are for the beat. On simple compositions it can take anywhere from an hour to 5 hours to completely finish it. But on the more complicated stuff it can take me days to finish. NEVER THROW YOUR BEATS OUT!!! There are times when I'm fuckin with a piano and playing... -
ASR-10 Operating System
Aight go here: http://www.emu.com/support/welcome.asp?rd=download Select "Legacy Hardware", then "Samplers" then "ASR-10" (or ASR-X, don't know what you have) Then, select your platform (PC or Mac) Now download the O.S. either complete disk or effects algorithms only Hope this helps Hypno -
plugging your equipment
Surge protectors are good because the fuse will pop with any spike and not damage your equipment. -
ASR-10 Operating System
Is it an ASR-10 keyboard or an ASR-10 sampler (with the keys that look like home plates) ? -
Improving the sound of vinyl
Another way to fix the pops in vinyl after you record is to redraw the waveform using the pencil tool in Pro Tools. This requires a little patience, but where you see spikes of audio that don't belong there, then you can take out the big pops without messing up your audio quality. Some... -
Heres A TIP for making More Beats
I can't tell you exactly what wires you need to attach to. the wires for the handsfree device should be 1) and 2) microphone (don't need) 3) and 4) speaker leads. The copper might be shielding that goes to nothing, but twist those up and try that too. all you need is mono. If your 1/4 inch... -
Heres A TIP for making More Beats
You can do a few things: You can use a phone patch and call your voicemail with that, hook it up to Pro Tools, or your recording software and record the convo or voicemail message. http://www.mfjenterprises.com/products.php?prodid=MFJ-624D OR make a phone call from your computer... -
Heres A TIP for making More Beats
Yea, I've done that before, back in the days. I was making a remix to "Best of me" with Jay-Z and Mya and I started doing it. I used to ask heads to drop their verses on my voicemail and I would sculp the beat around it like that. Back in the days it was harder, but since I could record... -
Sampling - Where to draw the line.
Hell yea. I mean, I've made a beat in 15 minutes before, but I at least said "Yo I made this beat in 15 minutes, and it's a track that can bring out your vocals and listeners won't pay too much attention to the beat." I got mad beats like that; some sampled, most of em composed. But, see... -
Help with interface!
Vocals. You have to be more careful with drums. If you compress a kick drum you have to worry about it losing its punch, and a snare can lose its snap crackle pop. If I compress drums, it's just to limit it in case the drummer gets crazy during a hook or something. But usually with the... -
Sampling - Where to draw the line.
No I completely hear you L. I'm not knockin the samplers or the cut-n-pasters or the actual SICK producers like RZA either. I used to sample a lot more than I do now (I actually haven't sampled in a long time) and I would put in a LOT of work into it. I would add a new bass line, arrange the... -
Sampling - Where to draw the line.
I hear you. But... the birth of a new beat inspired by the sample of another can only be credited to the creativity of the original composer. That should be an acronym. TBOANBIBTSOACOBCTTCOTOC. Yeah. Had the original artist not given birth to the piece, there would be no hotness to begin...
