yo audio heads who use pre-amp and cool edit and shit.......
 

ok, I used to record on this computer from '99, shitty shit. But anyways lately shit started fuckin' up, like freezing all the time, so I basically said "FUCK YOU" to it, and stopped using it. So now I'm using my new laptop that I bought.

and uhh so I installed cool edit all that shit, and I Attempted to record and came up with 2 problems:

1. When I recorded on the computer something funky happened without me knowin' what I did, but I LIKED IT. lol it was like whenever I recorded, I could hear like what was going into the microphone thru my headphones. Like if it popped on a "P" word or shit, I would hear it thru my headphones. but now it doesn't happen. Anyone know how I could configure it to do that again?


2. Whenever I record, it feels like there's a fuckin' delay. Like it delays my vocals like .5 seconds or so. iunno, but it fucks up the flow and makes my shit off beat a bit. anyone know what might be problem?

if anyone could answer these 2 problems for me, you will be considered a god in my book. peace

ah yea not me poor you........

^don't make fun :( this shit really pissing me off :mad:

you computer may not be able to process the info your tryin to give it....

or maybe cool edit aint compatible wit the system your runnin it on....

ghetto fix would be.... runnin the beat on somethin else... cd player... and record your vocals only... not over the beat in cool edit... then insert the beat after you record your vocals.... maybe by doin that you can bypass the computer funk???

i dont know... juss what came to me when i read that... wish i could get more technical... but im runnin outta here on some errands....

good luck wit that though :)

^aiight thanks yo..


but delay ain't really my biggest problem. I wanna be able to get the shit to come thru the headphones.


where's apexx when you need him? :(

well wit the freezin shit...if i open cool edit before i plug my interface and shit inta the usb it freezes for a sec and then it asks ta send an error report or whatever
but it works fine if i plug it in afterwards

I can answer question 1.

if you turn the feed on ur mic up...u can hear it on ur head phones.
But it also picks up more surrounding noise.

^iunno, when I had it going on my old computer, I didn't pick up that much feed. The same as my laptop. iunno tho, I'll try that tho. thanks

Iunno my balls! it works.....jag's suck, an when we doin that song....

^man, I was trying to record for that track when this happened. lol I need to fix this before I can record.

u silly fucker u

lol i just tried again, shit be fuckin' up still. All I really care about is the headphones thing. Cuz I think the delay was because of me having a corrupt version of CE on it.

so that's really all I need

oh, shit I was just talkin' to someone I think i might know why, or could be possible reason why.

for my computer I plugged headphones DIRECTLY in back of computer, not to my speakers. So that's maybe why i could hear the feedback. But in the laptop they only have one outlet for the headphones, so maybe that could be why? shit iunno :(

ur suppose to plug ur headphones into the pre amp silly
