Hi again,
took me a little while, but a friend of mine, who luck has it is a
DJ, came by and rehooked all my cables and MD and everything else and
even showed me how to set up the DB's, so now I'm off and recording
and so far sounding pretty good, thank you for your reply Beth, was
pretty much what you said you do :).
Shaun.

Subject: Cool Edit Users.
Hello once again,
I have questions for all the intermediate to
advanced users of cool edit. I have so many questions on cool edit
but I'm not going to post them all, just the ones that seem important
to me, first one would be after recording a track I get the file that
I recorded plus i get another file besideit with the same name but
ending in PK, Is this normal and will it affect my recording of the
main track itself? Another question was if I recorded in mono do I
have to stay with mono and vice versa, whats the best to go with
Stereo or Mono? Is there any way to make my recording louder without
increasing the DB's? And is does anybody have any tips on cool edit
that may be useful to me such as any ways to decrease background
noise, amplify without distortion, how to clean up a recording a
little before burning it Etc.. Any tips would be great where as I am
very new to this and would like to impress my father with his
finished recordings as much as possible, Thanks again everyone for al
the help and your time, greatly appreciated.
Shaun.
PS: I am playing with cool edit and the recordings now just to see
whats what, I love that undo button :)
