Goldwave

[Chuck Lang]

I am trying to play a drumless track while recording a track.

All I can find in the help section of Goldwave is:
Use the Track | Create recording section command.

I must be getting old. Can't figure it out.

So, how do I play the MP3 and record my drum track at the same time.

[Ranman]

What I did was to put the drumless track onto a CD, play that CD through the module's aux-in and record the combination of that and my drumming.

I haven't found a way of having Goldwave play and record at the same time. I may be wrong, but I've a feeling that is asking too much of my sound card.

Same as Ranman except I play the MP3 using media or real one on the same pc as recording on Goldwave looped through the aux-in on the TD8

Jackeen: So you have...

* a stereo cable from the sound card's line-out
to the TD8's aux-in
* a stereo cable from the TD8's outs to the sound card's line-in
* a media player playing the drumless track
* Goldwave recording the performance

Not bad! I suspect my Dell would "Dude!" itself right into the bin if I tried that.

I don't even want to think about what this piece of **** IBM thinkpad would do.

smack on with one addition

I split the output from the TD one going to my Old surround system for playback. Works a treat with a 12" sub woofer 2 sony sats on the rig and a centre speaker behind the kick. The cycmbol sound fantastic while the woofer gives the thud. If you look at my pics you'll see the sonys.

I also tried it on a cheap 600 p3 128 ram worked fine except that the internal components hisssssiinnnngggg - hissed me off

I use a Sony laptop 1 gig p3, 256 ram and an external usb/phono adpter for the in/outs. No aux in on the laptop. No hissing
