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! |

Well, then, let me ask you these burning questions. Since it's an iMac, can I safely assume that it's a USB FastLane, not a serial one? If USB, do you have the latest/correct drivers from MOTU for your system? Finally, have you tried installing FreeMIDI and turning off OMS, just to focus on your DX-7>FastLane>iMac>FastLane>DX-7 and make sure that everything is fine up to that point, without intervening software? QUOTE (torchsong @ Nov 22 2002, 20:00) I took your suggestions Levon and still no success. Well, see! Taking my suggestions was yer first mistake! We ain't done yet. Let's see what the questions above turn up. This CAN be solved... ....and there's always the exorcist to fall back on... |
