Did you like it?
How do you hook up a footswitch for punching in and out?

Does that mean you're a drum machine hack? That would still be better than I am, so I didn't really mean that to be any kind of slight. The audacity software has a Risset Drum tool that I am just learning to use.

I’ve used, but only to transcribe stuff for school so I can’t help ya here. Interesting story-I was taking a Communications class and we had to interview a local artist of any type. Not just music, any type of art. So I chose Chris Thomas King. I went to Tabby’s a few times. Loved it. Heard Chris play. So I get in touch with his mgr who was super kind. And interview him-also super kind and nice guy. Down to Earth. He gave me all the time I needed and answered all the questions in detail. It was just really helpful for my class, but also how I viewed music. He really, really knew the roots of music. Anywho, I figured that name may ring a bell for you, but you reminded me of a really pleasant experience with an incredible guitarist.

Yes. It's been a few years, but I used it to take some of my old radio shows, blocks of music, and put them into files and at the time onto CDs, or computer files. I mostly did wav and mp3. It is very good. It is shareware and open source code, so it is always getting better.

I know at some point I'll be doing this once again to get more blocks of shows I've done off cassette into wav or mp3 format.

I also had some really old phonograph records my father and grandfather, who were professional drummers, some of the club shows they performed, or others did, even from recording studios. These were super old. 78s. And the speed was off. But I used the audacity adjustment to actually pull the sound down perfectly. And to get the shows/concerts/recording sessions off the old records and into files I can easily use.

Yeah. It's good. Very good.

No worries, it was just a Beastie Boys line

Love it. Easy to capture performances or interviews, edit them for equalization, delete portions you don't want, etc.

Burn my own CDs to listen in the car.

Don't know anything about a footswitch but the software is apparently capable of far more than what I do with it.
