OK, so you are defining a function called hnosc and passing to it parameters for pitch and duration , and an additional three keyword arguments: bw, n and even . So the way that the function would be called would be something like: (hnosc 60 1 bw: 2.0 n: 4 even: t) where the keyword arguments are op...

the music is what's known as a "cdg" So that's a "karaoke CD" yes? The way that one would usually record vocals over a backing track with Audacity, is to import the backing track into Audacity (which gives you one track in Audacity with the music), then record the vocals into a ...

OK, it sounds like your connections are not quite right. Lets go back to what "the job" is. You wrote: what i am trying to do is run my dj set up, sing to a karaoke song and record the result. 1) Where does the karaoke backing track come from? Is it an MP3, or one of those special karaoke ...

Details are everything ;) shure headset mic is connected to mixer as well That's a wired connection to the mixer? Big XLR plug into the desk? If it is, let's go with that for setting up. next is the sound card ( e-mu 404 ) this is also connected by 1/4 " connecter One 1/4" jack? Which mode...

can you please help me learn this? I'm happy to try, but it will be a lot easier if we start from something that works. I presume that you used the "hnosc" oscillator because it has similarities with what you want to do. If we can start with a working version of that, then we can look at ...

you see steve this the code that i started with: OK, but that's just the interface part. Who wrote this bit: ;; An n "harmonic" oscillator. ;; (defun hnosc (pitch dur &key (bw 100)(n 8)(even nil)) (let (hz ffn j) (setq hz (step-to-hz pitch)) (setq ffn (if odd #'(lambda (j)(* hz (+ (* ...

should get one for audacity?

Probably not. If we can get your mixing desk and sound card working properly then a conventional (XLR not USB) mic will probably be better.

well i did plug in a set of headphones into the e-mu and no sound coming from headphones. but if i remove the headphones i still get loud and clear from speakers OK you've lost me. What speakers are you talking about? Where are they connected (we can't see your setup, so you need to describe everyt...

OK, good.
What about at the e-mu 404? If you plug your headphones into that, can you hear the music loud and clear?

Hi Owen, How is you mixer connected to your computer?
Are you getting a good strong signal at your mixer (showing on the mixer's meters and audible if you plug your headphones into the mixer)?
How familiar are you with the rest of the equipment (the dj/kj stuff)?
