Short: MIDI/Audio Sequencer for AmigaOS Author: Thilo Koehler Uploader: polluks+aminet sdf lonestar org (Stefan Haubenthal) Type: mus/edit Version: 0.10 beta Requires: camd.library, mpega.libary, zlib.library Architecture: m68k-amigaos >= 3.5 Kurz: MIDI/Audio Sequenzer für AmigaOS Web: http://www.hd-rec.de ___________________________________________________________ HD-Rec 010 beta © 2002-2012 ___________________________________________________________ What did I just download ? HD-Rec is a powerful MIDI/Audio sequencer for AmigaOS and compatible OSes. The final target is to replace a whole music production studio (well, at least a MIDI studio) with software components. It is a sequencer that can handle MIDI tracks and audio tracks in very similar way, both arranged in the same timeline window. The MIDI tracks can be played by an external hardware synth via MIDI interface or internal via softsynth (e.g. "Sweeper"). The audio tracks can be recorded through your soundcard or imported from disk. The most common fileformats are supported (.wav, .aiff, .8svx, .mp3). It has an integrated audio mixer with 16 true-stereo channels, 1 input and a master out channel, plus 4 aux channels. There are a lot of useful high quality audio effects that can be attached as insert or send effects to the channels.

If you want to use mp3 encoding, copy the executable of the mp3 encoder "LAME" to the C: directory or the HD-Rec install path. ___________________________________________________________ Minimum Requirements ___________________________________________________________ Hardware: - 68060/50MHz or faster 68K Emulation - graphics card with at least 640x480 - 32 MB RAM Software: - AmigaOS3.5 - camd.library, mpega.libary, zlib.library - AHI 4 (ahi.device 5.29) - Picasso96 or Cybergraphics - optional "LAME" installed in C: or HD-Rec directory ___________________________________________________________ Last Minute Hints ___________________________________________________________ - make sure to have ahi.device 5.29 or higher installed in Devs: - make sure to have camd.libary installed in Libs: (using AOS4/MOS you need the camd replacement library!) - if you run HD-Rec on 68060/50 MHz try the LOW QUALITY demos (be warned!) - make use of the online-help, wait a second over the gadgets or press HELP over the gadgets - copy the "LAME" executable to C: for mp3 export functionality - use SFS, PFS or FAT32, seeking in FFS or even OFS is too slooow - there seems to be a bug in AHI that under rare circumstances the samplerate is calculated wrong - don't use the default AHI audio mode, it is better to select the desired AHI mode explicitly. - if HD-Rec does not run, don't give up and report bugs to support hd-rec de (I am sure we will fix this soon ;-) ___________________________________________________________ History ___________________________________________________________ See HD-Rec/history.txt. ___________________________________________________________ DISCLAIMER ___________________________________________________________ THE SOFTWARE AND DOCUMENTATION IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
