Fwd: music creation using audio samples?

[The wolf]

Hello I am wanting to make some music using royalty free music sampoles



I need a program that would allow me to set a tempo fore the project and
match all my samples to the tempo of the project that I am working on.

I used to use acid music studio but you have to draw the wave form with
the mouse to even use it I had to have sited help.

when I did my last song I used garage band and have no money to get a mack

I am unable to play any music instruments do to limited use of one of my
hands so that is why I am wanting to use royaty free samoles 

can any one suggest a program that will do what I want and how to set up
the program fore what I am wanting to do?

thanks

Hank

I think i have a varient of that speaker model and I can tell you you 
won't need any other speaker system it will do what you want and then some
lets just say this if you turn up the base all the way up I had my pots 
on the stove rattling and it was on watching starwars movie.

don't think the dude in the apartment next door
appreciated it much but I sure did.
in all seriousness he came over and watched some of the movie to.
but yes these are really good speakers

Would these be the speakers you were mentioning? Costs $105.

Hi folks,
I am going to have to purchase a new PC. I have some rather old speakers on my 
very old PC, and I’m going to get rid of them. There about half shot anyway. So 
I wonder what folks are using on PCs these days that actually sounds good. I’m 
talking to a custom builder, and he was talking about just the sort of speakers 
that would plug into a line out Jack. I have a pair of b and w MM ones on my 
Mac, those are USB. And I’ve had them for a few years. They are very nice, but 
I’m not sure I need something like that on a PC where I probably won’t listen 
to boatloads of excellent music. Still, regular cheap computer speakers are 
really not what I’m looking for. Any suggestions?
Mary

Re: My obsession

does any one have both?

Yep I do believe I have one, talking to Amazon Echo devices, my 
Samsung Galaxy S6 with Google Now Launcher and - as of today - the new 
Google Home.


For those living outside the US the Google Home provides more 
localised information than Amazon Echo at htis time, Google Home uses 
your Google account and the settings therein to get the information it 
needs wheras Amazon Echo is set to recognise either the US or the UK.


Setup of the Google home can be done from the App of the same name 
though be aware that during the setup process you'll need to change 
the language of your Phone - not the region - to English US, once the 
setup is complete you can revert to the original language.


The setup procedure is straight forward and easy to follow, I 
experienced no problem whatever in connecting the Google Home to my 
Wi-Fi network.


So all that done I started chatting with Google Home and found myself 
getting quite a bit of smart thinking out of the device but perhaps 
that's more because of my familiarity with the Google Now Launcher I 
have installed on my Samsung S6.


Google Now certainly told me where the nearest Pizza shop was and gave 
me the phone number, that's more than Amazon Echo is doing right now 
but that will change for those outside the US and the UK later on this 
year.


The most exciting thing I've found with Google Home from an Audio 
perspective is just how easily I can set things up to have music 
played on one of my Chromecast devices, I have a Chromecast in the 
lounge and a Chromecast Audio in the den named "Lounge" and "Den" 
rspectively.


So suppose I wanted to hear Elton John in my Lounge I would say 
something like "Okay Google", "Play Elton John on Lounge", amazing!


I know there are quite a few people on list who use Amazon Echo so I'm 
dead sure there are a few Google Home users out there too.

Hi!

I was alerted to big changes in the App and there certainly have 
been changes since I last explored Spotify for windows.


Spotify for Windows now uses a HTML interface which seems quite easy 
to get around so accessibility should be at your fingertips now?


I'll have more time on the weekend for a closer look.

Hi,

I have just upgraded to the latest version of VLC for Windows running 
under Windows 10 and would appreciate it if someone could tell me 
what the shortcut keys are, please, for increasing and decreasing the 
volume.  In the
Audio menu, it lists them as ALT-I and ALT-D but I cannot get these 
to work for me!  I have also tried ALT-up and down arrows and 
Control-up and down arrows but with no more joy!


Any enlightenment gratefully received.

I’ve given the purchase of Any DVD HD some though and the answer is simple and

If the seller of Any DVD HD won’t take Paypal etc - in other words make 
difficulties for me to buy the product - then they can’t complain if I go out 
and find myself a pirated copy.
I’m against this sort of action but - in this particular case - then Red Fox - 
or whatever they call themselves - only have themselves to blame.
