Thread: 1 week and cant even perform the basics

"But if you want drums or an orchestra or grand piano or bag pipes, or any instrument you don't play, you can use MIDI for them........ you might want to use them some day"   yep.  I encountered the inability the transpose the drum track onto the intstrument tracks to burn to disk. I am assuming like an 8-track once all tracks are edited to ones liking, than they must be recorded on a "master track"....

ok - did you install the ua1-g software? when you started MC after installing the UA1-G, did you run the wave profiler or change to ASIO driver mode? if you ran or run the wave profiler in WDM driver mode, then you have to make sure your onboard soundcard is no longer being used as the DRIVERS or the RECORDING and PLAYBACK TIMING MASTERS in the OPTIONS>AUDIO window.

I don't think "transpose" is what you want to do; in music, that usually means to change the key. In order to burn MIDI tracks to CD, they have to be audio. To do that, mute all the tracks you don't want to bounce, then you select the MIDI track(s) and the software synthesizer track(s) by clicking on them while holding down the Ctrl key on your computer keyboard. Then you go to 'Edit' at the top, select...

Drums are MIDI..... so you will need to work the tutorials on inserting a soft synth (#8 IIRC) also see my web site for some plain English instructions on working with synths and I have a specific section there on setting up the DRUMS for sound. Your inputs and outputs to the soundcard are very important. Follow this info and come back to ask more questions if this doesn't work. BY THE WAY: It took me about 2 weeks of fiddling with stuff,...

Hi Kyle, If you're running Win7 x64, you may need to add the x86 Program Files path (which is different than your normal Program Files) manually.
