PC nightmare

Posted on

Member Since: May 01, 2003

Hello everyone, newbie here! just got a PC up together for some recording. want to use it more as a canvas for ideas really but having trouble understanding how to get started here. i may be completley computer illiterate and not even know it. i have been a musician for a long time but have had no real experience with recording and its extensive terminology even having quite a bit of experience in the studio. want to import drum samples etc. record guitar and bass over top and just do some basic songwriting. been wanting to write for years and now i can (or can't as the case may be). any help or assistance would be greatly appreciated guys and gals! cheers,
owen

I would say first go through the computer-related tips in the recording tips section and see what that answers for you, you aksed a very generally question with lots of variables and many very loooooong answers.

We will be glad to help you out, but first, read some of the articles that sound like they pertain to you and lets go from there.

Yup, you can't loose with the information here. The glossary will help a lot with termonology. FAQ's may have quite a bit of insite for you as well. I don't write this to put you off relitive to posting questions, just to expedite your learning curve.

What you are intending to do is not real difficult in the scheam of things. Very doable ambition! Your in the right place here!

no doubt, this is the place to be. HRC has taught nearly everything i know about properly handling audio, be it hardware or software. I agree with the above: dig thru the Tips and check out the new glossary too. I've gone from guitarist to guitarist with understanding in less than a year. I'm finally getting some hardware together and almost ready to start recording my own material. Now that I can talk the talk I just need to learn to...
