Rick, count me in. BIAB is new to me, but after reading your comments, Your shared expertise
would be invaluable. Johnny

I'm a newbie with only two weeks into BIAB 2010 version. I'm impressed with the real Instrument sounds. I have just completed a Cd that needs a mixdown. Is Realband or Power Tracks Pro capable
of producing satisfactory results for this? Thanks.

It would be nice if Jim offered for sale a video of his session on BIAB. For those who can't make the show, (I am recovering from heart surgery), a video would be wonderful. How about it, Jim and Bob?

John, thanks. I'll give it a try. Johnny

On startup, An error that runtime has suggested shutting down in an unusual way. c\programfiles\bigfix.exe. Is it safe to use an online cleaner, ex. Regcure to correct the problem.

My new DVD recorder for TV has a (OUT)USB port. I would like to connect the recorder to a standard DVD recorder without a USB port to make copies. Is it possible to
connect the units with some type of cable?
I have used this procedure for audio but have never tried using Video and USB.

If someone is in the market , this is an excellent instrument. I have owned a Martin for a year, and the price Jim is asking is a fraction of the price of a new one. A deal like this doesn't come along often. Johnny

I resolved my problem with sound cards by reinstalling new drivers. Thanks to all for your valuable comments. Johnny

I have had Three sound cards replaced in my Three year old computer. The cards stop working after six to eight weeks. I had them replaced by a different computer repair facility each time.
Perhaps someone has a suggestion. Thanks, Johnny Cunnyngham

Wiz, A wealth of valuable information. I realize I have been fortunate in the past but I will follow your instructions to the letter to Increase security measures. In my youth, the word "Trust" was utilized often and stood on its own values Today, it takes on a different meaning. Thank You...

"Woops!" Due to my own neglect, I was recently infected by a virus. What is suggested to at least make an attempt to stay ahead of these monsters? The characters who are behind this would be much better off sitting in their living room playing steel guitar. I have a new computer, (six mont...

Is there a simple method to back up a hard drive on xp professional. My attempts to use windows has not worked well. There was some recovery disc shipped with my new Dell but they provided a message that total backup could not be completed. thanks, Johnny

Roger, checy your email.

Gentlemen, thanks for your comments. I failed to mention I use the Boss Br-1180 and a Sony CD recorder, but I am glad to know that a computer will accept data disc for audio use. Now that's teaching this old dog a new trick. Johnny

Trying to find a source for blank Sony, Maxell or other brand audio CD-R disc. I have had my fill with Memorex, I can't recall making it through a "50" supply without tossing out several bad disc. Almost everything on the web is for data. Is it possible audio cd's are being phased out for ...

David, I own two CM-30 units, of course, my music area has many items by Roland and Boss on them. The units are sure to be a best seller for Roland. Only problem I have when playing with a band, the speaker needs to be really close, Thirty watts is no competition with a 300 watt speaker close by. Th...

Fellows, thanks for the Info. Your comments are appreciated. I will begin work on your suggestions right away. Johnny

Hey, guys, is there a favorite program for placing images on the web and onto the forum? I have tried uploading to my server's site, and I have tried the utility COFFECUP, both with no success. It is frustrating, I have a fairly good knowledge of computers, I use Photoshop, drafting programs and oth...

Wow, It won't be long before a familiar announcement is heard: "Laney has left the building." and so it should, she is deserving. Johnny

Ray, thanks for the kind words regarding Laney. If someone did say something negative about Laney, Bob would surely pull their plug. Poor Russ, he may not sleep after reading your comments. I told them a few weeks ago that Tim McGraw had been Introduced as "Faith's" husband, and now, it's ...

That's right, Michael announced this afternoon that Laney's CD's is the top seller at Scotty's. I'm not surprised, her voice is special. Laney and Russ will be performing at the North Nashville Guitar Jam next Saturday. Johnny
