Re: freaking out!!!

I should say that I recently added more space to my computer and the song files were on my desktop and I was able to open them and they were there three days ago. I also have them saved to my external drive. however, Now when I go to open the files they are gone for the most part.

freaking out!!!

Not sure how this happened but I need help. Very hard to explain but somehow most of my files are missing even though they were there a few days ago. When I try to open the song it says media files are missing.

However as the song progressed the drum beat no longer matched my song. I tried to move the track but no matter what I did I could not get it to line up. It's like...

It worked fine but when I tried to fade it out by clicking on the red dotted line and slanting the line downward like I do with a typical file but it wouldn't let me do it.

Why is there a difference?

I'm having an issue that I don't understand. There is a big difference between the way my mix sounds depending on where I play it. When I play it with my headphones on in my studio or when I burn it to CD and play it in my car it sounds great but when I play it on my phone or listen from my computer...

How do I move a recording?

How do I move a recorded clip ahead in time. For example if I record an intro drum clip but it is not exactly at the point I want it to be and I want to move it to a spot that is lets say 1 second ahead so it coincides with the beginning of the song how would I do this. Thanks, Jeff
