Hi, new girl here with lots of questions about hardware and software.
I've read just about everything I can that is somewhat related to my situation but still have ???? I am a cellist and vocalist and want to make backing tracks to play with live and also make demo recordings on my computer. I come from the portastudio school of home recordings so the MIDI stuff is making me nuts! Here's what I have: imac running OS 9.2 DX7 Boss DRmkII Behringer Eurorack MOTU Fast Lane Metro 5 OMS 2.3.8 grrrrrrr..... cello with pickup (although I usually am miked for studio recording) guitars cables I've tried to keep the basic set up simple but am having problems with OMS I think. Metro doesn't seem to like to work with Free MIDI. I am also having problems playing back audio after recording a track, how am I supposed to hear what I've played to do over dubs? BTW, I downloaded Pro Tools Free to try it out and just can't get the thing to open (memory error 1,010) so I gave up and went with Metro instead because it was inexpensive to start. Thanks for any help, this is a great site! |

I went back to try and reasses where I was having problems within Metro but wound up spending most of the day dealing with crashes of all my music related software. Most of the crashes had error codes of 1, 2 or 3 which I realize are memory related.
I have plenty of memory and hard disk space (320m ram and 19 gig hard disk) and have adjusted application memory accordingly. I'm not running virtual memory I ran Norton Utilities and came back with only minor errors in Metro and OMS. They were fixed and my hard disk is defragmented. I reinstalled Metro and OMS to no avail. Even a couple of demos that I downloaded to try out were not working. (Live & FM) Before I decided to use Metro I had tried a download of ProTools free and it would only crash so I gave up on it. I also forgot to mention that QuickTime is also crashing and that whenever I try to open the OMS Preferred Device control panel it also crashes. I knew I would have some technical difficulties when I got into this but this is ridiculous  I think I've covered all that's going wrong and now if I go to open the apps they will probably work because I posted it here...  bombs away!!!
