I appreciate your input, but I know this way of recording is the way of the future. Obviously you don't know me very well, but I want to and will get this figured out. I guess I'm a little stuborn. I do believe cakewalk should upgrade their manuals to include Windows 7. I think it would help their new customer base.

Hi man,

Just wondering if Music Assisted by Computers is really what you need.
Dont misunderstand my words, i'am just trying to help you the best I can. and give you an objective advice...

It seems you have a lot of problems understanding the installation of applications, and so on on computers... You dont seem to be aware of such techiques... And i'am wondering how you will be able to work with the software... It will take you long before getting it to work...

My point is just to say that maybe you should take a look on standalone multi-track recorders... They are much more easy to work with for musicians that dont know much about computers... Plug you mic, press rec and play your tune...

Ask yourself those questions :

Did you already tried the standalone mode of the VS-100? (if not, you should before going with software). Does the standalone mode answers your needs in music recording? If yes. Go with that, forget about software. Point is closed.

If not, ask your self why? Do you need more tracks to record? do you need multi-effects inputs? do you need loop effects? mastering processing ? Vocal processors? ... and so on... Try to figure out what your needs are in music recording and music production.

Then try to find a standalone multi-track recorder that answers your needs.

Hope it helps,

Regards,

Gaston

Hi man,

The Cakewalk software on the 2 CDs is compatible with windows 7. I use windows 7 and everything works perfectly. Software and hardware works great under windows 7.
Only the windows 7 drivers should be downloaded from cakewalk web site for better performances...

Regards,

Gaston

From what I can gather the two setup CD's for the vs100 are only formated windows XP, Vista32 and Vista64. What about people like myself with Windows 7? How am I supposed to get this information into my computer when neither cd will play? They say this machine is compatible with Windows 7, but it sure isn't easy. I may have to reconsider this purchase. Any help from anyone, especially someone familiar with Windows 7 would be greatly appreciated. Gasto, thanks for your help in the past. Doc
