    Brrr … fear! I did not sleep last night! 😆

    Joking aside, really beautiful tracks Cris. They’re ready for the soundtrack of a video game (Halo, C&C, for example …) or, why not, a movie.

    Keep it up!

    That could be the driver issue

    I agree that it could be a driver problem.
    However, to remove all doubt, try these two simple things.

    1. install asio4all driver. Try to record and if everything is ok … you’ll be very happy! 😆
    2. Podium Free does not support multi-core processing, so install Podium Demo (x64). Try to record without VST and … if everything is ok … again … you’ll be very happy! :lol::lol:

    I don’t know M Audio Fast Track interface, so I trust Alex.

    Cheers.

    Hi Alex

    I found this article which might help you: 32 bit vs 64 bit

    http://www.ilsoftware.it/articoli.asp?tag=32-bit-vs-64-bit-le-differenze-tra-le-due-architetture_6524

    It’s in Italian, so I’ll try to translate and summarize the most important parts:

    1. The 64-bit versions of Windows require 64-bit device drivers . This means that 32-bit drivers will not work.
    2. The 32-bit applications will run as if they were running on an x86 system. It’s called WOW64 (Windows On Windows 64-bit), the subsystem can run seamlessly for 32-bit applications on 64-bit operating system from Microsoft. WOW64 is able to guarantee good results, except for those programs that attempt to integrate with the Windows shell (security software, utilities, …).
    3. With more memory, 32-bit applications are faster. With more than 4 GB, a Windows x64 can facilitate a more rapid implementation of 32-bit applications. More physical memory available it means a greater amount of data that can be stored simultaneously in RAM. The consequences are obvious: reducing the time spent to load the data and to switch from one process to another.
    4. The 16-bit applications do not work on Windows x64. The 64-bit versions of Windows no longer support the implementation of the obsolete 16-bit applications.

    If I wrote something wrong it is not my fault! :mrgreen:

    Thanks again Alex.

    I totally agree with you. I think it is more useful a list of sites to find free plugins. Then the user will choose which plugins to download and use if necessary. The important thing is to test the plugins to ensure proper operation, post impressions and report problems.
    Overall, I use about fifty plugins (instruments + effects) in Podium.
    I like to try different VST, but if don’t have anything more than I already have, I don’t use them.

    Thanks kingtubby!

    I made other videos for vocoder, autotune and arpeggiator.
    The next will be… “time stretch” or “step sequencer”, maybe. 8)

    You’re welcome! You propose topics for discussion very interesting!
    I had fun making a short video about this plugin in Podium Free:

    It’s banal but I hope it can still be useful to someone! 😉

    Podium freezes right away.

    Yes, I too have had problems with this compressor. When I open the plugin GUI, Podium crashes. I did not insist too much, I have uninstalled it immediately.

    I tried this compressor:

    You seem prepared on the subject, try it and tell me what you think. 8)

    I realized after the difficulty to make available tracks. Your solution is perfect: simple and fast.

    In fact, I too would have expected more enthusiasm and more participation but I realize that even I don’t had much time to devote to Podium. I have so many ideas but little time. 😥

    As for the restrictions on plugins, I just say that I started to fiddle around with electronic music ten years ago with a software (Magix MM 3.0, 1997 version!) that had only playing midi sequences and had only distortion, reverb and echo and a single EQ on the master track. Therefore, they must commit only with the automation and the imagination! :mrgreen:

    Why not do a “Nucleum Songs Parade”? I thought the following rules:

    – Add your song no later than 31/12/2012 (I’m Italian … :wink:).
    – Vote for the entire month of January.
    – The first week of February Zynewave will decree officially the winner!

    Let me know what you think.

    Greetings.

    The database plugins management is a bit complicated.
    If you want to add new plugins without losing the settings of existing ones, choose “Update database and load plugins”. This should only scan for new plugins and skip the scan for those already contained in your database.
    However, the advices that I can give you are these:

    • Create a plugins database that you use most often and leave it unchanged. Then, if in a project you need to add more plugins, use “Import plugin”.
    • Use “Rebuild …” only if you have deleted many unused plugins. Think about it as a drastic solution.

    …and not in the real folder, i want a real list of plugins…

    I don’t think that you can do something like that. The easiest way is to put all plugins in the “VST plugins” Podium.

    In conclusion, take a look at this:

    Place the cursor on the track header then drag & drop the track with Ctrl held down.
    This copies the track with all event and all plugins with their settings.

    Can I record multiple tracks at once in free version?

    If I understand your question, yes, if you have more than one audio input on your sound card.
    You must assign an audio input for each track, arm the track and start recording. You should see the tracks record simultaneously.
    I tried to assign the left channel input to a track and right channel input to another and it worked.

    If you like online software, take a look at these:

    http://soundation.com/studio
    http://www.audiotool.com/app

    Soundation Studio is a online DAW.
    Audiotool is a nice “big toy” to produce electronic music only.
    The songs can be shared with other users.

    A “classic” DAW in beta testing yet is Bitwig Studio:

    These software springing up like mushrooms! 😀

    The idea that you suggested is good but does not work. I set the six channels in the Sound Properties dialogue (5.1 surround), but during playback, I only hear the stereo channels. 👿
    It ‘s weird, I don’t understand why. I checked the settings of the sound card (6-channel) and speakers and everything is ok.
    Now I try to work with the six channels separately. 😯
    I will keep you updated…

    Thank you again!
