Topic Posted on 09/26/2006 at 14:15:36Cool Edit Pro Recording Help. ;( Help plZ
I use Cool Edit Pro, 2.1 full-version. I've downloaded some instrumentals off of Limewire, and I'm trying to produce my own songs, adding my voice into the instrumental.
So do I just open up Cool Edit Pro, and View>Multi-Track.
Then insert Instrumental at Track 1. Then start recording at Track 2? I've tried that, but the voice doesn't blend in with the music at all, and sometimes not that good. Any tips or tricks, or am I doing something wrong? Is there a proper way to record? Please help.

Although I think you're on the right track, the reason your vocal may not sit well is that you didn't record the original track...
If you have no EQ'ing , or effects to help blend the vocal you may not be able to appropriately mix your voice to the music...
You've got the right idea...
Keep working at it...
Is there anything else we can help with??
Are you using a special mic or technique to record the track??

Yea, I think it's the effects. What effects can I use to make my voice blend in with the instrumental? Any tips...

if vocals don't blend with your instrumetal track, there is only one reason: bad recording tecnique. and no effect or eq can save that.
start by learing the basis of vocal recording; there are tons of articles on the internet.

Good thought Ra7or...
But Lipon didn't record the instruments...
He got them from Limewire...
Good idea on the vocal / but depending on how the Audio sounds from that clip that was downloaded there may not be any way to have his vocal sit correctly with a pre-made track...
Thoughts?

I am a musician and I am trying to record multi track I did some with fair results but now a track out of one session goes into another session and erases a track in the other session it's great to listen. Where could I find information on how to record from step one to mixing down and eventually burnig to disk

Hey folks,
I'm a freelance announcer using old SAW software and COOL EDIT PRO.
Recently when I do a mixdown on CEP the end result is a scratchiness sound
over my voice track. The initial .wav file sounds clean until I mix it down.
I can SAVE SESSION AS and convert it to mp3 through other software but
that's an extra couple of steps I'd like to avoid. Can anyone offer a suggestion
to clean this up? I've been using COOL EDIT PRO for several years with no
problems - until recently. I've done all the troubleshooting I know how but
without results.
Thanks,
TomO315
