is that a crime?

(hint - think carefully before answering.)

does your footpedal only have a midi out and no midi in as well? if the footpedal has an in, you could daisychain the keyboard through the footpedal. otherwise, you might try something like a Midisport 2x2 interface - they're cheap, easy and rock-solid, and will give you two ins and outs to the comp...

Oh, and to make things more complicated, I got one of those free Tracktion offers and checked it out for a little while but it looked like it was more of a looping program than anything so I never got into it. I think it's 1.0, is it suited well to multi-track recording and mixing? yes, it's exceed...

check around with used computer shops - I see server and network racks for cheap all the time.

two questions : - are you comfortable with the Acid interface & workflow? - does it do what you need, are are there features you MUST have that it doesn't have? I know a guy who made his first cd by cutting and layering sounds in Microsoft Sound Recorder... not a method I'd like to do, but he was co...

biographers wrote: what is IIRC?

sorry, shorthand for "if I remember correctly".

syrup - true, you might be able to map within the software, but I'm still thinking that transport controls need something different from a CC or program change message, I don't know if they'd be able to translate one to the other.

Drums and VOX sound great. Guitars and bass verge on unlistenable.

what does the band think?

yes and no - yes, the old Rolls pedals are built like tanks (I'm using one for switching channels on my Pod, 16 years after I bought it!), no it might not do what you want. IIRC (it's been a while since I've tried to set this up) transport functions like play, rewind, record, stop, etc. use a differ...

I still love Rob Halford's comment on the Judas Priest "Stained Class" backmasking trial...

"They said that the backmasking said 'do it, do it, do it'. Okay... do what?"

check Negativland's website - this page (scroll down) has a phone / audio interface that looks pretty easy to build, and cheap, with readily available parts.

I thought it was a joke at first, like "Is Dave trying to get publicity for his radio show?", but I think his show was cancelled, and this might just be a kind of cry for help. :lol: or it could be for the same reason he put together a 12-piece blues band to record a version of "Ice Cream Man"... b...

Bravo! thats pretty rad, hanging the disks to dry dark room style. awesome. yeah, I went down last night and they were still hanging, 26 hours later. I think I'm just going to let them hang until they fall off, or one week passes, whichever comes first. the only problem with the method thus far - t...

notes on another experiment in progress: I didn't like the way my stencil for spraypainting turned out, so before I rocked a solid coat on all the discs, I decided to try something. I picked up some water-soluble Speedball Paper & Cardboard ink, and printed some discs with my silkscreen rig. initial...

ditto - I have a couple of old rack-mount hubs that I picked up at a flea market for $1 each, with an eye to gutting them and reusing the housing.

i is the contact paper really coming off clean? i find that hard to believe and if your just using a stencil that uses part of the disc [not over the edge] and you keep the area clean, then its sort of overkill isn't it? what I'm doing on the current project is using a small stencil that creates a ...
