Try it again. My roommate did something to her foot Sunday night. So early Monday I took her to the ER, and they discovered a broken bone there. I don't like hanging out in ERs with all the sick people, so I mostly walked around the parking lot (car park to our English friends) or sat in the car. Since I'm a 2nd shift guy, I usually stay up late, sleep late. I had gotten only 5 hours sleep and I was feeling it. After 3 hours, back home and I started feeling bad. I thought it was just sleeplessness, so I took a nap. It didn't get better through the day, and that night I couldn't sleep at all. Headache, coughing, chills. Tuesday morning I took a COVID test: I got the 'rona! I've been fighting fever and aches along with the headache and coughing. Highest was 100.3. Despite all the naysayers, I used to wear a mask whenever I went somewhere with people. But when I started working 2 days a week at WalMart*, I just couldn't stand having a mask on for 8 hours. It is no longer required, so I took it off. I stopped wearing one altogether, but I know that's not why I got the 'vid. It could be, though. Second day, still feverish, coughing, but it's getting better all the time. I know there have been a couple other folks here who acquired COVID, thankfully my symptoms aren't too bad. So far, my roommates haven't been afflicted, which is worrying because Ann is 74, with COPD, high blood pressure and a heart condition. I have been sequestered in my room now for 2 days.

Oops. Meant for the 'random thought' fred.

I assume you fish exclusively for bass, to keep it musical.

So, when you read SSD, do you think ess ess dee or solid-state drive?

I think I already used it all. ?

Dirty contacts in the keys. Loose wires. Dirty contacts on the plugs. Cracked speaker cone. Dirty potentiometers. Broken microphone diaphragm. Sunspots. Incorrect settings in your audio interface software. Microsoft. More information is needed. What audio interface are you using? What driver mode? What operating system? How is the keyboard connected? Which keyboard is it? Are all of your drivers up to date? What version of Cakewalk software are you on? How are you making sound? A software synthesizer? Which one? A MIDI sound module? Really, there are a ton of things that could make noise, so letting us all know what you know may help you.

Thankfully, it's not my job, just a hobby.

Not a dadgum thing. It's as if music doesn't exist, except in my head. Complete lack of any impetus to record or write a song. Or play an instrument. But I am attempting to grow watermelons. ?

Circa 1960. I'm the kid looking up at the MC. Moving right from there, brother Carl, Mom, brothers Steve and Mike.

I plug my feet into my socks.

Bird's the word.

What notes sound when you hit them with a hammer?

ASIO4All is a wrapper. The RealTek ASIO driver is incompatible; better to use WASAPI if available. Using ASIO, you can only use one, so you can't use the interface for recording and the sound card for playback.

"two of our members are on it" So, Bapu counts as 2?

Cool name.

What club?

Can't really 'like' this post. Stick with it, Bub. Once you've walked away from everything, it's hard to get it back.

Worked. I never cared for the beechwood flavor of Bud. Of all the beers I've had, I liked a German beer called Henninger the best. Perhaps because I grew up in Frankfurt where their brewery was located. Every year in elementary school, we took a field trip there and watched it being made. But it tasted good, too.

That was one of my objectives when I retired in '19. Hasn't happened yet. Now I'm working again and have even less time, but possibly more inspiration, what with being out amongst the crowds.

So, I guess the answer is no? ?

That looks like a complicated set-up that's going to be fraught with problems. I know many people try to use what they have while looking for something better. I s the USB mic the only mic you have? You need one that will plug into an interface instead of the computer. And unplug the speakers from the headphone output and plug headphones in, if you have them. Electric or acoustic guitar? Do you have a guitar amp? You would probably get better results plugging an electric guitar straight into the Behringer. Make sure the outputs of the track are to a valid port. If the output reads 'HDMI' and you're listening to the RealTek HP out, you won't hear anything. It's a big program and can be complicated at first, and the set-up is often the hardest part, but you'll get there.

Air fare alone will use up that $25,000.

If it's a laptop, make sure the camera mic is off. Feedback, without knowing how you have everything connected and how you're recording, there's not much I can say except 'turn it down!' but you've already done that. Knowing what gear you use would help folks help you instead of asking you more questions. You can list it in your signature at the bottom, things like interface, operating system, model of computer and its specs (a short list), I have a relatively modest system that works well (and is ancient) so I don't have a lot of detail in mine, but any info you can provide there will enable fellow forumites to help you quicker. Do that under Profile. Good luck!
