Hey!! I was wondering if I use ACID on my computer and loop
together a number of beats..Can I copy those on a disk and
go to a studio and add some vocals for a professional
recording or is that not possible to do?

Plenty of studios are outfitted for this. Why don't you try it
yourself
right in ACID? With the right DirectX FX, and a decent mic, you're
home
free. Vocals are a real kick in ACID, and one of the most fun things
to
manipulate. Even if your soundcard is marginal, you can still do
some
really cool low-fi vocal stuff in ACID.

You can record vocals right into Acid and do what you like,
I do this all the time. In fact I make my own loop with my
keyboard and SoundFonts. I then mix everything in Acid save
to a .wav file and burn a CD, the sound quality is
excellent.

Hey thanks for answering my question..Do you know where I
can find some of those things you mentioned, because the
built in mic on my computer is very weak??

If you're looking for DirectX Effects, give our sales line a call at
1-800 SONIC, and they can refer you to a
Sonic Foundry Dealer in your area. If you're looking for a
microphone, there's plenty of good resources on
the net, including www.harmony-central.com, where you can find vendors
and microphone comparisons.
Also, you could try typing in 'professional audio reseller' or the
like into altavista.com. You might want to
check out sound cards too, in which case, there are a myriad to choose
from, depending on your interests
and budget.

Could you explain DirectX FX? Is it software or hardware?
Is it just something to manipulate the sound with, or
something needed to record with a mike into ACID?
