aiight wtf? recording issues....
 
aiight so I got my fast track USB, and my wire to connect my pre-amp to fast track, cuz I need phantom power for my mic, and my pre-amp has that. But uhh so i did all this, checked to see if it recorded. I get the feeback thru the headphones (WORD TO THAT!) but uhh when i record, i hear this loud annoying like BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEPPPPPPPPPPPPP" shit that just continune going on. Like a flatline sound. And i see the bottom, like when I say something in mic, the meter shit go up meanin' like it heard sound, but it don't show up on cool edit. Like nothing records. Wtf @ that. anyone know what's going on?

^lol what up? You know answer to question? wtf @ all this shit stoppin' me from recording. lol shit gave me headache too

uhh, you need more detail and to be more specific. when you say "feedback through the headphones" do you mean electrical feedback or do you mean "oh i hear my own voice and i wanted to call it feedback"?


the way your fastrack should be set up is as your primary audio device, so make sure it's set to the default input in your program (prolly fooledit) instead of your preamp.

and monitor through the computer and not the fast track, you need to hear what the final sound output is not jsut what the fast track hears.

oh yeah, make sure you didn't get a 1/4" guitar plug as your input and your input to the fast track is XLR or else you won't hear jack shiddit.

apply these if you already haven't and lemme know how it goes.

TeamOne 09-28-06 09:32 PM

lol yea, i meant like my voice

by this you mean like if I go to sound control and properties and look @ record and playback, you mean the fast track needs to be set to the primary "mixer device"? cuz if so, it is

and monitor through the computer and not the fast track, you need to hear what the final sound output is not jsut what the fast track hears.
hmm, yea that's what I been doing. but like I see the noise bar, like ONLY the bottom one move up, then top one like staying put. And annoyibg beep sound plays

oh yeah, make sure you didn't get a 1/4" guitar plug as your input and your input to the fast track is XLR or else you won't hear jack shiddit.
yea, well unless the dude I talked to over phone wanted to screw me over, I got write wire. Dude talked to me via phone, I called him left voice mail, so dude will call tommorow. He works at place where I got fast track. So I told him my mic type, my pre-amp type, and he told me exactly what I NEEDED, so I'll prolly just run it thru him to see what he says too. But i'm sure everything is the right shit I need.

apply these if you already haven't and lemme know how it goes.


aiight that's how shit is man, bujt I still get that beep noise. iunno, i'll go fuck with it again

∆ P E X X 09-28-06 10:57 PM

all that wire talk doesn't tell me what type of wire you have son

and in your recording program it has to be set as default input

where's your mic input and mix volumes at on the fasttrack it self?

J Summers 09-29-06 07:29 AM

J. Luth 09-29-06 09:18 AM

lmao and your point is? You're acting like I'm ashamed about that. You peep the sig? Yea, exactly. But since you know me so well and read up on everything I do, why not just post my entire life story? lmao mouse boy, hop off and keep it movin' son. I'm sure there's some cheese lyin' around :hump:

∆ P E X X 09-29-06 02:21 PM

oh man you got the tube pre? i had that chunk of shit once.

but check it, remember how i was telling you about using guiter cable?

See how the cable thta meets your Fast Track's input has an image of a guitar above it? ...yeah. That's the wrong cable.


You need an XLR male to female cable, and that's gonna run from the output onthe tube pre to the input on the fast track

and you can disconnect that shit you call an xlr, that's what's causing your feedback (you know...REAL feedback, not what you think sounds cool if you call it "feedback") because you have two inputs going to the same source.

BTW the shit you called an XLR cable is NOT. XLR is the 3-pinned wire that every audio device in the world uses and its about time you learned the correct terminology. XLR goes into mics, it goes into guitars, keyboard, everything. stop saying "thingy" and "whatever", you're not 5yrs old anymore.

word

but that image of guitar is on the fast track itself, not the cable. Because I bought all this from sWeetwater.com. The tubepre like 2 yrs ago, and this fast track and all and he said that that wire would work. here's a picture of the wire alone:

http://img1.imagetitan.com/img1/1/29/000_0336.jpg

^you sure that's the wrong one? Cuz the guy said it was what I needed

hmm i'ma look that up

and you can disconnect that shit you call an xlr, that's what's causing your feedback (you know...REAL feedback, not what you think sounds cool if you call it "feedback") because you have two inputs going to the same source.
LOL yea, the guy told me I was basically making some loop shit or w/e and told me to get rid of it too.

BTW the shit you called an XLR cable is NOT. XLR is the 3-pinned wire that every audio device in the world uses and its about time you learned the correct terminology. XLR goes into mics, it goes into guitars, keyboard, everything. stop saying "thingy" and "whatever", you're not 5yrs old anymore.
yessur


lol man but basically, like I talked to the guy on the phone again. And he told me if I had it all set up, and that if I go say something in the mic and I can hear it thru my headphone then that means it's working fine". and i COULD hear it thru my headphones. BUT then I removed that cable I called the XLR lol, and then I COULDN'T hear myself thru my headphones anymore.

but then when I recorded (still had those cables in that I shouldn't of) I actually got it to record this time, but there was horrible noise in background as well. That like flatline sound was there too. But atleast my mic was pickin' up my voice. Then I took out that cable, and it wouldn't record at all.

iunno could it possibly be that my laptop is just fucked up? I'ma have to try with this computer I'm using right now

LOL wait, so I don't see where you're proving to me you have talent? I peeped your audios, and I don't see it. Chingy makes money from rap, heck, even KEvin Federline has too. what's your point?

spul....listen very clearly...

i'm not gonna sit here and explain my self but see how the input you're plugged into hs the picture of the guitar?

and see how the one you're NOT plugged into has a picture of a mic? now since you're recording from a mic not a guitar... which one of those do you think you need to be plugged into....

I'm not guessing at anything Im saying man, I'm beyond sure. The guys at Guitar center only know how to tell you how to hook up...GUITARS!!! The instructions you got are correct for hooking up...GUITARS!!! not mics. The shityou have set up now will never work for the reasons i said above man, I'm not guessing.

i'd rather b chingy and rich.. then spul and still live wit my moms...

You'd get boo'd in a club ... tryna use big ass words to a buncha drunk fucks who could care less what knowledge u tryna kick....

Zone Out 09-29-06 03:04 PM

again, you're an idiot. Who said this had anything to do about money? and lmao @ me tryin' to kick knowledge. Son, most my tracks are club tracks, but I also vary it. And I wouldn't care if you were chingy, and I was me. I'm not in hip-hop to be wack and make money. I'd rather be good and make moeny son. My point is, I'm saying your high squeaky voice is annoying, and your flow sucks. That's my opinion. i don't care if you like it or not

and me and Tizz be opening up for Anthony Shears in seattle early next yr, either late January, early Feb. So about the getting boo'd part. I'll get back to you on that. ;)

lol aiight I got you man. appreciate the help. I'ma check out for that wire you told me to cop. word

J Summers 09-29-06 03:08 PM

why keep doing something that your not going to achieve anything from just to say you were true to hip hop...
i'm not saying i dont like real lyrical deep songs...shit like that...but thats not going to appeal to a mass group of people.. there are alot of idiots out there...

Umm... so what in your definition you're saying chingy is the most successful rapper out there? Why be called a joke by many hip-hop heads and just be on TRL with corny love songs and stupid club songs as your only hits?

Jay-Z even tho some might hate him, he still has deep songs and does shit that are like club type songs or songs to appeal to the masses. He's livin' good, considered best rapper living by a lot.

my point is, why settle for just some garbage pop music as your ONLY tracks to get big? The most creative artists are the ones who can make lyrical songs appeal to a mass group of people.

I'd rather go into hip-hop and challenge myself, instead of taking the easy way out.

J Summers 09-29-06 03:16 PM

oh if there is an easy way... please do show me...
making it in hip hop is alot more than knowing how to record a good song... thats half of it

I didn't mean for you to take it literately. But sure, if you wanna be like Chingy, go for it. Y'all got a lot in common I guess =/ But look @ eminem, Marshall Mathers was in no way just stupid garbage lyrics, yet he put in 11 million. So Iunno what you're talkin' about with this shit about "being lyrical won't get you anywhere". Notice how eminem's new shit is all club type shit, and how it ain't sellin' for shit? yea..

J Summers 09-29-06 03:36 PM

J. Luth 09-29-06 04:02 PM

^wtf? Are you illiterate son? if you can't understand that, then why bother....

J Summers 09-29-06 04:37 PM

where did i say bieng lyrical wont get you anywhere..then maybe i'll understand..u just said i was talelntless for dumbing down my shit
