I just tried to install "xtracks"ver.3.2. all went well and i could place many different tracks selected at random to see the results.The problem is that i seem to have a huge number of items that i cannot used because the *.s and *.sd files are not present. Examples: "A1T100r10d concrete.s", "ukfs_s_1x200m.s". There are a large number of these. There is also the road section that are not in the GLOBAL\SHAPES folder. By the way I have only one default road installed namely "Marias Pass" Have I missed something in the install?, This is my first post but I've been reading all the sections for a while. A good day to you all. 2500 Post Veteran Join Date: Nov 1999 Posts: 3758 Location: Jacksonville,, FL, USA. Preferred Sim: MSOR RE: XTRACKS installI haven't tried an X-tracks install yet, but I suspect that your problem relates to having only the one route installed. This will mean that anything that should have come in with the other routes is not installed, and therefore "missing". Given that it takes nearly 2G to install the whole thing, you may want to install all routes, then make copies of CD/R platters of your Global, Shapes, and textures directories. There have been utilities developed to copy everything to one directory, and you may wish to look into that.J. H. Sullivan, P.E.

RE: XTRACKS install Just in case you may not know it, you have to have a Base install of xtracks 3.0. Then install 3.1, and then 3.2. John.

To divide tracks when digitizing cassettes or vinyl. Best of all, it allows you to adjust the pitch of an audio file to match your instrument's tuning. It is constantly being improved by the programmer, Rolf Nilson. I consider ASD to be THE MOST USEFUL program I have on my computers.

Does it have a "cartoonish" sound. No, at least in the case of the Amazing Slow-Downer, which is why such programs are great. They slow it down while maintaining the original pitch.

Especially with dry recordings. Pitch remains same. One of modern software marvels imo. Below 40% there starts to be a increasing warble/distortion depending on the amount of reverb etc. I don't find the need to go below 70% often. I'll hit 50% when it gets tricky. Too slow and the feel for the timing gets lost on me.edit: ok I need a speed-upper typing software The following members say thank you to Mark Wilson for this post: Jun-25-2014, 10:55am #20 Economandolinist Amanda-2007 Duff F5-2001 Stiver F5-Blueridge BR-40T Tenor Guitar-1923 Bacon Style-C Tenor Banjo Jun-25-2014, 11:17am #21 Registered User Re: The Slow Downer I like the free Audacity software for this, because many of the tunes I want to learn by ear are in the middle of multi-tune sets (typical for Irish trad), or long session recordings. With Audacity I can isolate just the part I want, strip out the extra bits, slow it down (or not, depending on what I need), and then export a new MP3.I know some of the other "slowdown" software apps might include partial looping functions, I just prefer this working method of exporting a file.

When the pandemic started, musicians across the world began to embrace live streaming. After all, they needed a way to get their music out to fans and followers without physically stepping onto a stage. Between platforms, software, gear, and monetization (like virtual tip jars), musicians had to get tech savvy quickly. Now, thousands of musicians, music shops, and music teachers are leveraging live streaming to grow their reach, engage their customers, answer questions, and share their music with the world. Maury Rutch is one of those musicians.Maury owns and operates Maury’s Music, Inc, one of the largest & most trusted dealers for Martin & Blueridge guitars. They’ve been in business since 2003, and Maury’s been playing guitar professionally since the late ‘80s. “We play the products we sell” is the formula, and Maury’s all about getting you the right guitar the first time. When it comes to shopping for a Blueridge or Martin, no mom & pop shop has a bigger selection, or more informative online content.Like many musicians and music store owners, Maury had to get serious about video and live streaming. He needed a way to reach his customers and fans. He found Ecamm Live and never looked back.How Maury Started Live StreamingMaury has always been interested in audio and video. In fact, he studied both in school back in the nineties with an intention to get into audio and video in some way when he started his career. When he opened Maury’s Music in 2003, Maury knew that he needed to be able to show off his inventory online in order to build a strong customer base. Pretty quickly, Maury and his team switched from taking photos of guitars to sharing video clips instead.“I remember asking our webmaster ‘what is this YouTube thing?’ I didn’t end up building a huge YouTube channel in the beginning, but thankfully I didn’t skip it altogether, either.”Prior to 2020, Maury would partner with musicians and record videos of them demoing different guitars. So when the pandemic hit, he had a decent sized YouTube channel with many videos showing different models of guitars available for sale at Maury’s Music. Unfortunately, with the pandemic in full force and lockdowns happening, he also didn’t have a way to record new videos with other musicians. It was all on pause.“The pandemic caused it all to stop. I couldn’t bring anyone in to record new videos. And I’m not the best talker. I don’t have the personality where I could just hit record and get a good video.”Thankfully, Maury isn’t the kind of person to give up, either. Saying Goodbye to the Comfort ZoneSo he forced himself out of his comfort zone and just started trying. His friend Aaron Short (another musician) invited Maury to be an occasional guest on his Monday show, but that quickly became a weekly occurrence. Their time together on-camera turned into regular streams that lasted almost 2 years!Around the same time, Maury started going live on a regular basis to give
