My Recordings Always Sound Bad

You're spitting into the wind here, your Lordship. -
The Realtek ASIO driver is absolute garbage.

My Recordings Always Sound Bad
Byron Dickens replied to Richard Strickland's topic in Production Techniques
You're the one who can't read. You've been told by two different people - one of whom has recorded and mixed commercial releases - where the root cause of your issue is and it is not in the recordings. -
No. The topic is the timeline for upcoming releases.

My Recordings Always Sound Bad
Byron Dickens replied to Richard Strickland's topic in Production Techniques
No, I record, mix and master in my room. This was done in a 10x11 foot room. Including a Miced up guitar amp and the real drums that take over from the drum machine around 1:00 in.. And I didn't throw a blanket over the desk either. -

Byron Dickens replied to Richard Strickland's topic in Production Techniques
No it isn't and you don't. I don't throw a blanket over my desk and neither does Ocean Way, the Record Plant or Abbey Road. Flutter echoes are caused by upper mid and high frequencies bouncing between parallel walls or the floor and ceiling in small rooms. The lack of acoustic treatment might not affect anything recorded strictly in the box, but it sure as hell affects your mix. Without an accurate listening environment, you have no idea what you are really hearing. The number one biggest improvement to my own mixes was building some real broadband bass traps. Soon enough, others will be a long to back me up on this - at least one of whom has commercial releases. -

Not the problem. Not the problem. Not the problem. Unnecessary. Definitely not the problem. Absolutely the problem. Only means the guy gets paid, not that he is any good. -
Please start your own thread instead of hijacking this one.

I don't know why some people are so scared to connect their DAW computer to the internet once in a while. -
Setting so timeline slider will go wherever I want to put it
Byron Dickens replied to Muzician's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
Absolutely. The big problem with search boxes is if you don't know exactly how what you are searching for is phrased, exactly what it is called or how to spell it, you often come up blank. -

Turn off "snap to." -
Sez you. How about changing it to what you want and then saving it.

I still have my Korg X3 and try to shoehorn it into just about everything.

Cakewalk keeps crashing during freeze if I touch it
Byron Dickens replied to sean72's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
Have you considered just taking a chill pill and just letting CW do it's thing while you get some coffee or something? -
Sorry to tell you this but you might have wasted your money. Should have gotten a real audio interface from a known, reputable manufacturer of pro /prosumer gear.

How to Locate which clips have FX
Byron Dickens replied to Bassfaceus's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
How long have you been struggling with this? There is an easier way. Practice good project hygiene. Approach things in an orderly, logical and systematic manner and document them as you go along. Spending a little bit of extra time on the front end can often save tons of time on the back end. -
Any plugin that problematic I ditch and move on to something else. That's an easy one. In the preferences, check "suspend audio engine when Cakewalk is not in focus "

Now you know one of the reasons why pros meticulously document every session with copious notes.
