  RE: [Closed] live recording?
  Hi, You just need to move the song markers at the top of the arrangement. They look similar to down arrows and provide the start and stop points for playing and recording. You may have to zoom out to move the end marker far enough to the right to

  RE: [Closed] recording multiple tracks at the same time with music maker 15?
  Hi Chris, The first question to ask is "Does MM15 do this?" I cant' say for sure but the Music Maker line has not had this ability. Samplitude is the way to go here. If it does then it's simply a matter of assigning the input to each track and

  Hi, The fact that it's towards the end of a song would suggest a low buffer setting (or perhaps low memory); try increasing your buffers a bit. Also, do you record using ASIO? Justin

  RE: [Closed] I'm having Recording/Tracking problems
  Hi, What are you using to record? Sound Card or Interface? Most often a sound card will be set in the Windows mixer for "Stereo mix" or "What you hear" - this will record everything going in and out of our sound card; especially if you're using

  RE: anyboby tell me how to get my downloaded drum samples etc on
  Hi, At the bottom of your screen you have a file manager where your sample database is located. Use this area to browse to your drum samples, find the one you wish to use and drag it to your arrangement. You can preview each one by clicking on it

  RE: Recorded sample is static.
  I agree with sig... simplify. You should start with the basics. Make sure your RealTek audio driver is up to date. This will have to be done through the manufacturer; ASIO and ASIO4ALL are not actually drivers. If you only have one input that's

  RE: [Closed] Suggestions for recording acoustic drums via midi???
  Hi, I share your pain!!! Drums are EXTREEMLY hard to record well. I can't suggest MIDI triggers for drums because I don't like those either. Your best bet is to get a good set of drum mics (yes it takes several) and a small mixer.  Then you can

  RE: [Closed] recording
  Most likely you'll need a 1/4" TRS to 1/8" TRS. If your keyboard has the common large headphone jack then this is what you need. If you can't easily find that cord you can get a standard TRS (balanced) instrument cable and get an adapter for 1

  Do you have a line-in available to you? Perhaps on the back of your PC right off the sound card? It's a long shot but worth a try; it's going to give you a cleaner recording anyway. I can't think of anything that would cause this. Justin
