  1. Honestly I hope your right. I think it was the second to last one, I literately fell asleep in the movie theater LOL. On Christmas day. My own snoring woke me up LOL. It was at the scene of the girl waiting for Luke to come with her, and she refuses to leave till he does. I think anything Disney had to do with this movie, was just a massacre. They should of never touched it. It had a George Lucas signature to it. Even if you didnt like him, I could tell its not his work. Kind of like switching band mates LOL.
  2. Sorry about your friend desert. It does suck. Im feeling that right now. Was just messaging an old friend from another forum earlier. Bad ass guitar player too. Havent spoken to any of them in about 3 ish years. Site went dead. But he hasnt played in over 4 years. Also has no plans to pick it up either. After trying to convince him to try, he tells me he had surgery and going through cancer. Not that he doesnt want to play, he just cant. He tries every now and then too see if it will come back, but never does. He also said, he rarely comes to the forums anymore. Just caught him in time. Gotta admit, Im little bothered by it. You dont get an amazing talent, and then have it stripped from you. Not fair to him or any player for that matter. Im glad you did meet up with him. Remember that moment. They really are important.
  3. In regards to this, I was also believing my 10 year old Line 6 could also be partially responsible. I know it was updated, I find it hard to believe MTS was sole the problem. When I uninstalled, and re-installed, my Line 6 wont work now. So to me, Im believing it does share the problem. I have a support ticket with line 6. If I dont hear from them, Im going to go to Guitar center, and just get the newest Line 6 thing available, and put the old one to rest. Once I get that squared away, I will then see if software is still messing up. If that does happen, I will re-bump this topic, and go to the next step. Thank you Dr Mike, and MoodBlues keys.
  4. I originally just found it online. It looked and simple, and records simple. I finally got a hold of him. Customer support is apparently one guy. The one who made it LOL. I originally messaged the forum board there. When I didnt get an answer I realized, no one was there for the last 2 weeks (which Is why I lost my temper LOL) Geil (thats his name) finally answered the board. Personally after a detailed problem like I listed above, I got a 2 sentence answer. And it was something I already knew. He then disappeared for 2 days. I decided at that point to just find a "support" thingy, and finally located it within the software itself. Did what I asked, and sent. Now Geil has been helping a little better. Maybe he didnt know I needed help or something. Its a problem, that lies within play mode, and record mode. Once I figure we figure it out, prob should be solved (I hope LOL) So I guess when its in play mode, you cant hear guitar. When you hit record/standby or record/play, you then hear it. Its never had that behavior before.
  5. Bump* would anyone know the solution for above prob?
  6. Hi All I posted this on the forums at multitrack studios, but it doesn't look like they come on often. So I copy n pasted my prob here, maybe someone can figure it out. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Been buying your stuff forever and today I realized you have a forum LOL. Ok, I broke something an I cant figure it out. So Im going to go nice and slow. (ps: Just bought the Pro 2 days ago, but either way Ive always had everything working) First let me explain how I have gear attached. I have my guitar. Then the chord goes to a little plastic box from Line 6. It has capabilities to connect by USB, or Line in. Since Ive been using USB for over 10 years, I dont use the line in, just USB. So in behind the computer to USB in. Second, I use the line 6 software. This has chorus, flanger, reverb, this is the heart and soul of my sound (its like my guitar amp with attitude) . Dont need MTS to work this. I always have this on auto settings. MTS did work with it fine. This part was not touched. I believe it uses the adio4all as well. Third. MTS its self. I will give you the set up that DOES work. Lets go Studio>>Devices. Ok, now this is where I get confused. (this is the part thats broken LOL) So I'll give the settings Audio Driver Type: Windows XP (NOT RECOMMENDED) Audio In Device: Digital Audio Interface (Line 6) MIDI In Devices: None Audio Out Device (High Latency): Speakers (Realtek High Definition) Audio Out Device (Low Latency): Primary Sound Driver [Latency 3072]samples MIDI Out Devices: None Those setting DO work, guitar can record, the track can play ALL at the same time. So Im going to go over how the recording process goes for me: Track 1: energy 160 beats per minute guitar backtrack (this has bass, drums, rhythm guitar all in one track) Track 2: Lead 1 solo (this is my guitar track the I record too) Some of my work, has multiple tracks, but I made is simple. I can click record on track 2, while playing track 1. When Im finished, I can go back to beginning, and play both tracks, and it works. Problem is it sounds like sh* (*looks at forum rules) shtupid music LOL. I think default is "Windows" Driver type. Cant remember, as I broke this LOL. I will give you my possible options for that setting. Audio Driver Type: Windows Audio In Device: None, Default, Digital Audio Interface (Line 6 TonePort GX) Midi In Devices: None, Line 6 TonePort GX (same for a 4 columns) Audio Out Device: None, Default, Speakers (RealTek High Definition Audio). [latency 12] Midi Out Devices: None, Default, Microsoft GS Wavetable Synth, Line 6 TonePort GX With the above setting, I can either use Line 6 alone, or MTS alone. They wont work together. Now I did press record, on MTS, on track 2, strum the guitar, and see the needle move (not sure if right term) this means MTS can hear it, just not me. I have an Asio4All driver type as well. Not sure what to press with these either. I'll show those options. Audio Driver Type: ASIO MIDI In Devices: None, Line 6 TonePort GX (same for all 4 columns) Audio Device: None, ASIO TonePort GX, ASIO4ALL v2, MIDI Out Devices: None, Default, Microsoft GS Wavetable Synth, Line 6 TonePort GX Personally I dont know what a MIDI devices is. The only input I use is a USB as stated above. If it is the same thing, please let me know. And finally, all my options for the ASIO4ALL settings Im aloud. Under WDM Device List I Have in order: Realtek High Definition Audio Realtek HD Audio Stereo input Realtek HD Audio output Realtek HD Audio Mic input Line 6 TonePort GX Out: 2x 44.1-48k Hz, 24Bits In: 2x 44.1-48k Hz, 24 Bits ASIO Buffer Size = 512 Samples I think that might be all that matters there as Ive never really touched this thing. I dont know what to turn on or off on this. Im believing I have all the settings, let me know, what else is needed.
  7. Yes I enjoyed this. Great jam. Should take a quick peak at his work.
  8. You are very welcome slipclone! Dont like too see any musician go through that. Just getting a paper cut, can make playing tough. I wish that on nobody. Oh nice, what kind of music do you perform in Tokyo? Is a pleasure to meet you too. PS: Im liking your "Crystal Eyes" song!! Real nice work there. Superb guitar leads in it!!
  9. Man, if music could be coincided a religion, your statement would be on the 10 commandments (not that Im throwing religion at anyone) Nothing has impressed me more than a real drummer. Hands down. Yes you guys definetly are!! I can fluff, or twist just about anything, but when it comes to drums, they're either real or they're not. I think I prob spent over $800 worth of different drum machines, and $200 in a guitar center newbie drum set, for someone to learn it, and still have no access to a real talented drummer. Big waste of money. My biggest flaw in music, is zero drummers. At J. Dan, your 100% correct. Best way to go about it. If you saw though, my comment to dboomer, it was my guitar work that came first (an idea recorded) and tried to find a beat that would fit what I did. I think if I had a drummer, I would definitely do the click track, and then have the drummer add-on after. I think I joined a handful of sites/forums in the past, just to find a great drummer open for projects. As far as the bass (even though Im lousy at it, and a different topic itself) I can do a real cheap simple track either using a keyboard, or use my whammy peddle, with divebomb (or what ever its called) and get by. But not when it comes to a drummer. Real is the way to go.
  10. LOL. Found something I could work with. Wasnt really a cover. Just a decent background to play too. Those above was just an idea for a created track.
  11. Im glad you asked that. Im hoping he answers. The sad truth of what Im seeing in his statement, is it seems the kind of music that requires the use of guitars is fading. Im seeing a tend. If it isnt thrash or hard rock, the guitar player seems to be taking a backseat. Just enough to know he is there, but the limelight of the guitar soloist seems to be not so front stage. Plus, with todays tech and the use of internet, a mess load of the forums about guitarist seem to going down hill too. Its how I ended up here. I searched for an active forum within the year. The last one I was on, was very active, but when I left music to take a break 5 years ago, came back and most havnt been on in 2 years. I messaged the Admin, about making it active again, and to what I feel is, hes not interested. And my youtube!! Damn, I had a good list of friends there. And same as the forum. They left. I tried getting their attention but to no avail. No one has interest in these things anymore. Pretty sad
  12. My bad, I guess I misread that line. Still a great jam
  13. Hi Members Just going over so of my videos on youtube, and with this studio function thingy, I noticed some of my vids are private. Prob to save some embarrassment at the time, but I uploaded this, I dont know, a song in the making thing, but thought Id share. A member from another site was going to work with me on a tune. He wanted a basic structure to work with. So I put down this lead (yes I know HEAVY flanger & reverb) Then I come in with this rhythm guitar a bit. I send it and he says "What, no drums?" Im like Shaun, you know I dont have anything other than the electronic per-programed thing. He tells me to go with it anyway. So the third track was a drum track. The fact it was so non-line up-able, this says why drummers are so important. Wow was I off beat etc [video:youtube]
  14. Thats awesome!!! LOL Try to go with one of those scratch-n-sniff ones. Like new inmate-but scent
  15. HAHAH Ya no prob. And if you would, Id like to see your interview when the time comes.
