yeah that 1800 is a boat, is't it!

perhaps this...

You should check out the forums at Sound On Sound (UK website).
I'm not sure, but I think the url is <A HREF="http://soundonsound.co.uk">soundonsound.co.uk</A>

There are more people who will know about Casio products there. Otherwise, do a keyword search for Casio web sites. There used to be some great homepages for some Casio products and custom software for them. Last, but not least, you need to check out <A HREF="http://synthzone.com">synthzone.com</A> for their huge index of manufacturers and user submitted info. You can find support for almost any kind of hardware audio music machine ever made there. If you don't find anything, at least you can submit to the archives any advice you have for the next person who is unlucky enough to use a Casio Wk-1800.

Adios.

Marketing is years behind R&D (Research & Development) OR the ho

As I said in a previous post, if I had my way, we'd be using editable multichannel minidiscs to store audio using Meridian Lossless Packing.

If anyone cares to know what MLP is, here is some info I just found which even hilights how the technology already exists. Once again, the people are denied progressive technology because of greedy, stupid, and slow marketing forces.

You are correct. I've started a project to do DVD-A and just found out that the bottleneck was absurdly high prices for simple software that block us poor folks from getting to play.

I am absolutely stymied by being unable to afford this overpriced junk.

Video on Web Page

Hi,

I would like to add a video to my Web Page and I'm new to this. I'm assuming the format would need to be in avi is that right? If so will people on a MAC be able to view AVI videos? The video I have is in wmv and I haven't had any luck converting it over to avi yet.

Thanks so much.

Reason recording

I can't get reason from propellerhead to record drum sequences directly into the built in sequencer. An example would be if you put one instance of Redrum in the rack and you create a complicated drum pattern and then try to record this into the built in sequencer nothing happens. I have been told that you can't do this but that would be insane and would make having a built in sequencer absolutely useless. Please help there must be a way.

REason Recording

THanks for the post people, that helped me....now...question number two

say i have an 8 measure drum track....but the 8th measure i want to feed the drums through the scream 4....how can i do this without the rest of my drums also going through. .i only want certain measures....isnt there a way to record so that you dont have the synth playing it but the computer playing a wav or aif or what have you ?? ? Your copying the pattern but your not actually putting down any hard wav. files....this doesnt make sense...would i need another program to do this ? ? put all my patterns into pro tools so that they are there and dont use a cyber synth to play it.....somebody please help me on this
Much obliged
peace

Re: Reason recording

hi James,

Here's how to record your Redrum pattern to the sequencer:

1. Select the 'Redrum' track on the sequencer page.

2. Select (click on) the Redrum machine in the rack.

3. Go in the 'edit' menu and select the option 'copy pattern to track'. Reason will place copies of your pattern into the seqencer page between the loop points.

Then, either:

4a. You will need to disable the Redrum's internal seqencer once you have done this by clicking on the two lights above the RUN button. (Enable pattern section & Pattern)

or

4b. go in the edit menu again and select 'Clear Pattern'. You can then add additional percussion on top of your seqenced beats.

Sorted. U might find it useful to note that the 'edit' menu in Reason changes depending on which device you have selected in your rack - there is some cool extra features in here.

Hope this helps.

That worked perfectly thank you. Now I was wondering if anyone knows of a way to save the song I create in the sequencer as a sound file such as a wav or an aiff. If I just go to save song as wav or aiff all of the sound I've programed all start at the same time where as if I create a song in the sequencer certain items such as a drum machine will start maybe a couple of measures into the song.

Thanks again
Jim

What is the difference between XG and XGlite?

anyone know?

Re: What is the difference between XG and XGlite?

>From my tests of XGlite on an Edirol SD-80, it appears to be the MU50 sound set, controllers and sysex, but without anything related to "variation" effects. cc94 does nothing.

I had this same problem, was driving me crazy. MMJB tech could not solve it. I found 3 registry keys on my 2nd CP that did not agree with the reg. keys on the CP I was having the problem on.There were missing microsoft codecs even though I reinstalled XP.

I exported those keys from CP 2 & Imported into the registry on CP 1.

Everything is working fine now. Did not even have to reboot.

If anyone would like those reg. keys I will be glad to send them. there are 3 of them.

Re: WaveOut Format

Please send me the keys also, I'm having the same problem! And with some instructions, please? Thanks very, very, much. This has been driving me crazy for months!

Re: WaveOut Format Answer???

I found out that my drivers that load my sound card driver were removed when I played on windows media player- maybe a cedec issue?
I am going to try to find other drivers on the net I have no disc and of course no backup whatadumbazz

Maybe try a restore
or reload drivers then reboot.
Good luck
