Williams) Organization: Kiewit Computation Center, Dartmouth College Lines: 40 [] This summer I bought Farallon's MacRecorder and Bogas Productions' Studio Session. They are GREAT! All I can say is if you are at all producing music using your Mac and you are on a limited budget (i.e. can't afford a sequencer or a MIDI interface) this is the way to go! I have a few questions: 1) Are there any public Pascal of C routines which will play a Studio Session song? (Falcon does this at startup). 2) What is the best way to save a MacRecorder sound as an instrument? When I save it as instrument it asks me if I want to compensate for non standard recording rates (I sample in 22k mode). If I say OK it can only be played back properly in SS as a very very very low note. If I say "CANCEL" it plays back in SS at about a middle c (or a little above) which is good, but if I then load it back into MacRecorder it plays at only half speed. How can I save so that it loads back into MacRecorder at the right rate (I know how to set pitches, but it's a pain) and so it plays back in SS at a reasonable note range (how can I control that?) 3) Is there a public repository of SS songs or is anyone willing to share songs and info and sounds? I'd be very interested in seeing what others have done and in sharing what I have (will) done (do). 4) Is the format of SS songs publically available? 5) Is the format of MacRecorder sounds available? eMail to me and I will post a summary if there is interest.
