Re: Mom needs a CD and she's a Newbie, woo hoo

THank you so much, I will give it a shot! No, I'll not even attempt anything close to clever, such as a fade out...! Nah, go on spoil yourself - it's actually easy, all you do is elect the selection for the fade and then apply the required fade. The "best" fade for fading out, certainly f...

Re: Poorly written looping wiki - need help looping

@Gale & Steve: Is there a good reason why "Looping" is in the Wiki and not in the Manual?

Re: creative soundblaster card problem

The tape deck uses stereo cables from the tape deck and a USB cable to go into a USB port on the PC. The unit appears to be working-at least the lights blink and turn green when it functions. I moved the cable to another USB port-same result. A "USB cable" implies that somewhere embedded ...

Re: Recording 2 things at once/muting channels

I've grabbed a bit from a play called "Soemone to Watch Over Me"... A great play Dave - my favourite quote is the line from the Irishman (Stephen Rea in the original London production): "I can sum up this situation in just two words: ridiculous <small dramatic pause> ridiculous."...
