Yes. It should be better. I think that should be the way. I make this when i export a track. The problem of this drummer i think it's that he didn't have a multitrack to work installed.. he just pushed play in my tracks.. sit down on the drum... record the drum over (internally into a single track) and after he sent me the file. I don't know what kind of recorder he used. So.. there is the empty part.. and i had to cut the file and find exactly where the accents are... Really unconfortable.

Ok. I've turned off the snap. Now all seem works well. I don't have the problem of before. Tomorrow i'll try better with other drum parts.

P.s: when i say that i cannot put the accent in the right point, i mean that there is an interval of time that the software with my settings give me, minimum, to move the drum. The interval is too big and if i put it back it go too much back... if i put it forward it go too much forward.

Hello all. I have a problem. I've got a 24 tracks project with audio and some midi tracks. The drummer has sent to me an audio track with all the drum parts. I've imported the audio track in project. I cannot syncronize it with metronome and with the project. I use the "move" command. If i put forward the audio track it plays in advance. If put it back play in back. I cannot put the track with the point of the accent directly in the point of metronome. The project is always shifted and i have an interval too big to put in the right place. 22 is the track with metronome, 24 is the drum. How you can see in the picture, the accent is always shifted. Drum accent is late respect MEtronome accent. Anybody coud tell me what could i do for it?

This is my last mix. It's about -11.7 Lufs Integrated and -1 set by the limiter.

Ok. I will try also to use just it, i usually used also some other dedicated apps.

In my last project: Yes i've got more than 10 tracks and i've set each to -18db. I show you the master buss, with MvMeter set to -6 db. Here you can see my master buss settings. The value of Mvmeter in the master is something like -6.3 that respect -6db that is the "zero" of the counter, is much lower. The medium average value is something like -10(respect the new "zero" set to -6db). Do i have to change something in settings here?

Yes. I use Loudness Meter. I've got the free version.

I mean this to 0.. this is too high.. for example. 0 should be -18

Hello all. I use an app: Mvmeter 2. I usually set it to -18 Db. Then.. if the 0 in the Mvmeter is set to -18DB.. i use to get all the tracks at about -3(i mean -3 in the scale of MVMETER). It should be a little bit under the -18 ideal value that is the 0. If i put it on 0.. it get a little bit louder with some guitar sound. Usually setting my audio Card input level to don't get the red level.. and i have a control panel for this.. i have a little bit lighter signal than 0.. After recording i use the gain, for gain staging. If a track is too much under -18Db.. so under the 0 of MvTrack i put up the gain with Ctrl left button of the mouse and up mouse.. If it is too high.. i make the opposite. Is that correct? NB: i use the 0 of MVMeter that is set to -18 DB not as peak but.. as medium value. After all i make equalization and in the end the mastering

I've used this for the song. The sound is nice and it's similar to what i was searching for. Next songs i will try to use the other plugins.

Ok. Thank you very much. I'm installing right now all the plugins. I'll try to use it and to select wich one is better for my song.

Hi all. I'm recording a song, i record the guitar, the drummer the track of drum, the singer the voice. I would need to play by myself also the bass. I've thought to make it with a Vst plugin(playing with midi key or just writing on piano roll doesn't mind), i would need a free Bass simulator. I just need a standard bass(electric bass) sound, i don't need advanced sounds or effects. Does anybody could tell me one? Thanks in advance.

Ok. Thanks.

This is my screenshot

Hello all. I would like to ask an information if is possible. In these days when i delete and overwrite a track i find all the old memories to delete. For example: if i deleted 10 times one track.. i find 10 recording of the track to delete. All the memories. Something like.. i have to delete all the history. Before wasn't like this, i usually in the past find only the last recording to delete. Do you know what i've done or what could be the problem? Thanks in advance.

No, obviously not. I would not open this question. If you use a microphone and you use an headphones, and the sound comes out to the headphones... some kinds of mic could take the sond that you are earing from the headphones. It could take the metronome also.It can happen to my singer for example, she use external microphone. And yes.. she take a little bit of everything if the studio where she record isn't well separated and silently. I record in an internal mode.. i can record near an explosion and it doesn't ear nothing! lol. It's a way to say that it is internal and work good. I don't have the same problem of my singer. i don't use external recording methods. All the signal is internal, from the source to the audiocard. That's why the Audiocard Support say that is impossible that the metronome is there, i showed them all the settings, but the metronome is there! Ok: second question: my Audio Card has a loopback mode. If you want to record everything the computer ear... and obviously also the metronome.. you can make it, you select as input mode: loopback mode.. and you record everything together. IT's not the case because the setting is disabled. Audio card Technical support admitted that disabling process was correct. You have an option. To make this you can select input: loop back.. and so yes.. you will hear the metronome. But you will ear it loudly! and very strong. The issue is that disabling every kind of loopback.. it countinue in deep and very slow volume.. to have a form of loopback. You have to put the speaker volume high to ear it, it's a very small signal. This is not normal. Your last question: Loop Back 1/2 is off, in every setting.

Ok. Which menu?

Thank you for your answer. Yes, absolutely it's a problem in audio card. The control panel is this, and it is all correct. I've contacted the technical support and in a first time they tried to tell me that i had in settings ... loop back. It wasn't correct obviously. I've sent them all the screenshot that i've sent you. Understood that was not loopback in settings.. they told me to be happy that there is not loopback! That's incredibile! So... i have a record track. He told me that there wasn't metronome on the track? I've sent him the track.. The volume is low of the metronome , because it's an issue, it's not normal that is there. I told them to put high the volume and listen... he told me that he don't listen the metronome! Is incredibile. I think they don't want to admit that the soundcard has an issue.. Here's the mp3... i've cut it but it's the first part, you can ear the metronome. It's impossible that a technical support don't ear the metronome in this file... mp3 (mp3cut.net).mp3 mp3 (mp3cut.net).mp3

And this is cakewalk setting. Metronome is set to play only during recording, not during the play. And the input is sected correctly. It's why i'm thinking that could be in the audio card the problem....

And this is the output setting.

Also in control panel, it's all well selected. There is no selection of loop back channel.

I'vre cheked all the functions of audio card, every setting is for mic 1 input. I has got also the possibility to record in loopback but you have to select it in a separate way. It's not. How you can see in the mixer, all the input is set on Line 1 input. There is no loopback selected on the computer.. Anyway-- if i put the volum of the speaker really high.. you can continue to listen a little bit of loop back the same. The same problem that i've wrote for. I think could be an issue of thew Audio Card and i don't know if there is a possibility to fix it with this Audio Card.

Every answer to my exact words.. would be welcome. Expecially to my last comment because i used it to clarify. Obvioulsy not the old comments. The problem is when the answers are related to words that i've never told. I usually quote the exact words of the user, when i answer to anybody. Example i quote myself: "I've told just an obviuos thing: the "normalize" effect didn't make any change because the width in Db of the "source" track was so small that didn't reach the range where that effect was set to work. Didn't reach the range where the effect was set to modify the original wave" These are my words. I answer to myself; ok.. so that effect didn't modify the track. If a person watch the video in Youtube dedicated to this effect, how this effect work, how this effect modify the original track, would understand in one minute what i'm talking about. If any word that i use it's not clear, my english is not perfect, one person can ask: what do you mean exactly when you say this? I can Answer: i mean that it didn't "reach" the range. For example. I've sent the picture to clarify better. Bombing with information not related to my words make impossible communicate. I know that you are expert.. I'm totally new. If we talk we should try to understand what the other person is telling. We cannot communicate. I think should be better to stop. Thanks anyway to everybody for your help. It has been really useful.

I've never told that the dB level of that wave form is showing the output level of the fx. Putting words in the mouth of everybody that he didn't tell, i think it's not a good game. Also the last post told me "If you use ctrl +alt + mouse wheel" but i wasn't talking about the view of the track but the large in db. The last post didn't understand what i was talking about and has taken a line. I told that i had tried to apply that effect to the track. I told the characteristic of that track. I told just an obviuos thing: the effect didn't make any change because the width in Db of the "source" track, was smaller and the wave didn't reach the range where that effect was set to work. The wave didn't reach the range where the effect was set to "modify" the track. So the track remain the same... I told only this. I told this to make other people know that my first question had an answer. The effect is called "normalize", I was not talking about "normalize" in general. The effect, in the tip that i was using, is applied in every "original" track. Who don't use this effect,.. i have the doubt that can misanderstand what i was talking about. Some said 2000 interesting thing.. i thanks so much to all for this.. but my sentence was "specific". I used the last comment to clarify. I cannot communicate if we don't understand before. I think there's a problem in communication in us, i will stop here. I can't delete the post, but i don't want continue in that way, sorry. Anyway thank you to all for all the informations.
