Re: New recording "skips"

Your throw-away turntable may need throwing away a little early. These things aren't the peak of the electronic art and it's not unusual for them to develop a damaged bitstream. Try another USB connection or reconnect the one you have multiple times. Restart the computer and the turntable. If you ha...

Re: Recording iTunes from Mac sounds terrible + audio mixing

<<<with my old Windows computer>>>

Your old Windows Deskside. Chances of this working with a Windows Laptop are a good deal less likely as many of them don't have Line-In or any convenient way to get one.

Re: Disc won't play on CD player

We do have stand-alone Combo DVD players that don't want anything to do with Home Burn music CDs. The Panasonic I just looked at has a manufacture date of 1997. We keep this one around to play home burn Movie DVDs. This machine is very particular about what it will an will not play and it's our QC m...

Re: Trial Version

<<<Any ideas????>>>

Yes, when was the last time you updated your virus protection and did a comprehensive scan? I mean the one where you can't use your computer for three hours, not the wimpy one that runs in the background.

Re: Need help with iCONNEX, natch!

<<<You need to have WAV files exported at 44.1kHz 16-bit stereo (the Red Book standard for CDs)>>> Which isn't strictly true, either. CDA, the music format on a Music CD is loosely based on WAV, 44100, 16-bit, Stereo, yes, but it's up to the Music CD Authoring Program (Nero, Easy, Toast, etc) to con...
