correct! i guess the way 10 handles fades and other such session data, the session backwards compatability is lost. however, if you get stuck like i did, you can just shoot the session file out to anyone who has 10 and they can quickly resave a conversion for you, without the audio data, and shoot i...

ptx to ptf

http://www.mediafire.com/?mpkz45rzre7vxza this link is for a ptx file. if anyone out there can convert it to a ptf file and email it to l.vis [at] sbcglobal.net you would get a fairy dusting of good karma. did not know 10 was not backwards compatible and just learned the hard way! i'm in version 9.

opening a mac formatted drive session on a PC?

so i was in a conversation with an engineer friend the other night getting hipped to a program you can install on a PC so it will recognize mac formatted drives... this is awesome news to me because I use mac formatted drives instead of FAT32 or other formatting because I've heard it's safer for you...

buying the cheapest working backup battery for a mac G5

went to the store to buy a backup battery for the studio mac G5, expecting to spend around 50 bucks (only looking to get about three min. to save and shut down in a power outage, so figured go cheap) and the store clerk said for a G5 you gotta get the 250 dollar ones because of the power required by...

Do pc's easily read and open pro tools session files? Usually I just export all the wav files and open them with cubase, but t...

i think you can get 26 ins with those presonus firestudio 26x26s so long as you use light pipe, i've heard the pres suck but if you arent interested in the pres anyway it may be worth looking into, or some other manufacturer variation of the same thing...

that was exactly it... knew there had to be some other weirdness going on... i guess i dont have to punch sonar, just cubase and/or pro tools... probably both. at this point i may as well switch back to sonar for all my non pro toolsing needs. thanks for the info.

Sonar 7 recording 24 bit questions...

ok so a few years ago i switched to cubase because anytime i tried setting sonar to record 96 khz/24 bit it would give me a message that my soundcard didnt support this and revert back to 44.1/16bit as "suggested by the driver"... however cubase would let me switch to 96/24 no problem on the same so...

USB Mic immediate playback at the wrong speed

Ok here's one I've never dealt with before... a friend of mine bought a USB microphone at my recommendation, as he is a non musical/recording background guy who writes lyrics and wants to practice putting them to music tracks on his computer with Cakewalk Sonar 7... so he bought a Nady Audio USB Mic...

thanks for your info!

I found a program called "SdTwoWav" that converted in XP with no problem, I'd recommend this for any PC users. Going to a mac was my next choice if that didn't work... wish I had one.

cheers
