Yes you can. You can type lyrics in to match the melody on a midi track and then view that concurrently with recording. It's called staff view. It's not great but sufficient for some including me. I'm an idiot. I was answering for cakewalk. Listen to scook.

I like. I have often thought that with distribution as it is, you could have different mixes To choose from. I'm sorry you didn't dig it. They don't supplant the originals. They compliment.

What kind of audio input? Some mics require phantom power. I would probably start by playing a YouTube vid. Can you hear it in your headphones? Next play cakewalk with metronome on. This should get a meter bouncing on the metronome and master bus. Can you hear it? Next, check the input. Is it a mic that requires phantom power? Can you enable phantom power? Click the record button as well as the input echo. Any meters bouncing? For just the guitar, make sure the guitar volume is up. Phantom power not required.

I'm sure to get yelled at but I'm saying it anyway. Wave assumes the most significant bit is 1 and so with the same number of bits stored, it gets one more bit of precision. I did a null test with flac v wave and the waves have 1 bit more precision. For the purpose of creating mp3s, flac or wave doesn't matter. You will be throwing out 90% of the data at conversion. ? Flac will take up less space usually, but less commonly with latest wave spec. I would choose wave 24 as you have.

Thar she blows.

Happy bday!

Max out your buffer for your interface?

Cakewalk is a good thing. I don't know if new users will come or not. Lots of young people make music. There's a lot of old music talent with things to share. From minor substitutions to mike placement. Tricks to fix recording mistakes like vocal pops (thanks @Craig Anderton). My gma practiced jazz. I have her old sheet music. She was fairly talented. I wonder what things she worried i wouldn't adopt. She thought i chose terrible shoes. She loved singing together. This forum is the stoop of a general store where anyone is welcome. Cakewalk the guitar in the corner anyone is welcome to.

Sometimes i think i have everything i could want. And then i realize I'm just lacking imagination.

I just bought the book harmonic experience.

Snap settings?

Musical time hold clips on their measure. So if a clip starts on beat one of measure 3, it will no matter what you do to tempo. If it starts at 2 minutes in, then you cut the temp to half time, it would start at 4 minutes in. Some purple use temp for tempo sync fx but not for recording or midi. This is a different thing. You may want to add tempo changes between your songs. You wouldn't want new tempos to move clips. Helpful?

When clips move, it's usually due to tempo orwhether the track and clip are set to musical time or absolute time. Try making sure the track is on absolute time.

Rip He was a friend of mine.

I'm just hooked on melda. Not sure how it happened but i use those things all the time.

.... Phish that isn't phish.

This is usually bc the microphone is sensitive enough to catch the sound coming from the headphones. If so, play louder or turn down your headphones.

I use media monkey. I also tend to include a photo from the session. Nice and small, but good enough to look nice in a phone screen or car display. How cars display tags matters. Titles cannot be too long or car displays don't show them well. I bought media monkey gold a long time ago. It was money well spent. I use it on my phone too.

Man! I'm sorry for your injuries, but glad you are recovering.

+1 on gratitude for scook

@craigb I haven't read most of this thread, but if you are looking for how to use a laptop that you don't own to make recordings, I suggest Ubuntu Studio installed on a USB hard drive. Boot the computer to the USB drive and make your recording. If you have a Class Compliant USB Interface it should work fine. It isn't Cakewalk, but it's easy and portable.

My greatest fear is that one day I'll die and my wife will sell my guitars for what i told her they cost.
