Playing Audio CD' on computer cd player

Why does my computer cd player recognize audio cd's as CDA fliel? This just started happening a few weeks ago when I was burning audio cd's using a cd re write drive. I have tried several ways to change how programs are recognized, but still now luck. Any suggestions?

Please e-mail me if you have any ideas.
Susan Searls

Re: Playing Audio CD' on computer cd player

The format for an audio track on a CD is CDA. You can burn CDs with other file formats but not as an audio CD that can be read by a regular stereo/CD player. CDA is the format for an audio CD, that's all there is to it.

CRACKS, SERIALS etc

There are ovbiously a number of people out there who appear to have IQs in single figures.

DO NOT ask for serials, cracks etc. on this forum. You won't get one, and your posting will be removed. All you do is make more work for the moderators of this forum and annoy those people who want help.

Andy

Seconded...

It's sad that this has to be said soooo many times but I think it makes the difference, even in a small way.

People here ask and answer music related problems and don't want the space abused for other reasons. PLEASE, respect the people that own the site and stop using a perfectly good forum for a purpose which is frowned upon here.

Electronic music

Would like to learn about electronic music making via computer, Are there any chat rooms were one can log in and talk to other like minded people to exchange and get new ideas?

Re: Electronic music

Well, you're already in one of the most popular discussion forums on the topic! I haven't seen any chatrooms that are as good. Just stick around here. Read the posts, check out <a href="http://www.hitsquad.com/smm/tutorials.html">this page</a> and spend some time reading the messages in this forum. If you become a part of this place, you'll get a lot out of it. If all you want are answers and for others to do all the hard work for you, you'll find no one will help you. There's a great zine you can get called <a href="http://www.hitsquad.com/">Music Software Weekly</a> which has heaps of news and info on music software. Check it out.

software of scanning sheetmusic

scanning in sheet music using scanner, then playing the scanned music back(software?)and perhaps burn cd

Re: software of scanning sheetmusic

: scanning in sheet music using scanner, then playing the scanned music back(software?)and perhaps burn cd

You can use <a href="http://www.hitsquad.com/smm/programs/Midiscan/
">Midiscan</a> to scan in sheet music and
create multi-track midi files.

Then you can use any MIDI player to listen to the
music - you'll find heaps of them at
<a href="http://www.hitsquad.com/smm/cat/MIDI_PLAYERS_UTILITIES/">http://www.hitsquad.com/smm/cat/MIDI_PLAYERS_UTILITIES/</a>

To burn to CD you will first need to 'Render' the
midi file into audio and you can do this with one
of these programs:-
<a href="http://www.hitsquad.com/smm/programs/Midi2Wav_Recorder/">Midi2Wav Recorder</a> - this one uses your soundcard synth
<a href="http://www.hitsquad.com/smm/programs/TiMidity_win32/">TiMidity++</a>
<a href="http://www.hitsquad.com/smm/programs/WAVmaker_for_Windows/">WAVmaker III</a>

Once you have created your WAV files you can then
burn them to CD using any of the software in the
CD Burner category on this site at
<a href="http://www.hitsquad.com/smm/cat/CD_BURNERS/">http://www.hitsquad.com/smm/cat/CD_BURNERS/</a>

sheet music

where can i get free sheet music?

Re: sheet music

: where can i get free sheet music?

Most music is covered by copyright and the owners
don't give it away for free.

However, music that written by a composer who died
more than 50 years ago is in the public domain and
a few places will give you sheet music of this for
free.

You can download <a href="http://www.hitsquad.com/cgi/htdig/htsearch.cgi?config=htdig&restrict=%2Fsmm%2Fprograms%2F&exclude=&method=and&format=builtin-long&words=Opus+Viewer">Opus Viewer</a> and you will get some
free interactive sheet music with this, then you
can pay to get more if you want it later.

LP recorder "clipping" problems!

When recording LP's onto PC using LPRecorder playback always sounds as though there are small sections of the music clipped out all the way through. Any ideas.

You haven't...

.... just plugged the record player straight into the computer have you??

If not, check the levels of the recording as they don't need to be too high...

Muzical Wizard Pattern Software - HELP PLEASE!

I purchased a legitimate copy of "Muzical Wizard" software about 2 years ago. It came on a floppy disk with manuals. I've recently purchased a new computer and found out my floppy is no longer readable. I tried getting in touch with the company that made the software, but I believe they are out of business. Does anyone have a copy I could get from them? I'd be happy to pay for it. I do own this copy legally and have the receipt to prove it. Thanks for your help
