I am not sure though if you can record timecodes/timestamps with sonar, you would want to know when each conversation took place. use a multiple-input soundcard to record the whole day. I'd believe that's the only setup that makes sense. If you have an extra computer or laptop, you can easily do what I'm doing even without a mixing board. I don't use Giga while I'm doing any of this, just to be safe. With that setup it's easy to route the audio that's coming from Skype through my Giga computer and into my external mixer and route that into Sonar for recording. I have an external recording console, so analog outputs from all my sound cards from both computers come into my mixing board. So I use that computer for Skype and my DAW for Sonar. Recording Skype calls is not simple because in addition to the bi-directional problem, Skype rips control of the sound card away from you when it starts. Audacity will not do two things at the same time no matter how you split up the tasks. I have a separate Giga computer in my studio. Recording Skype calls in a useful manner is far from simple. not to mention the trim-actions to eliminate the silence before and after the actuall calls. it needs an additional user efford to stop the recording, save the file, open an empty project, rename it, record. I would guess that the free software saves a wav/mp3-file with each skype call, which Sonar wouldn't do. Yes, quite a big investment to swap the free software with a professional sequencer program on each computer. I don't understand why you would want to use Sonar to record Skype. I'm now using free software that records the call, but I'd really like to record direct to SONAR.ĭoes anyone know if this is possible and how one would go about configuring their set-up? We want to switch most of our recording from phone lines to Skype. I work for a podcasting agency where we record a lot of phone interviews and conference calls. I searched on the entire forum and was surprised that there are no threads on this topic. Could've just been my computer, or I didn't futz with it enough. I don't recall all the details, but it didn't work too well. I use a USB Plantronics headset with mic for Skype and other chat, and have tried to use that as the input source to Sonar. But that's the same thing you're already doing it seems. I've used a program called Pretty May to record Skypes (in both wav and mp3) and then brought them into Sonar. Oh, and they have to sign away all liabilities. It has to cater to the portion of the guy population that has excessive testosterone levels and no reasonable outlet. $100/30 minutes driving a big bull dozer or road grader or something else around all that dirt. Or, how about a gigantic field with huge piles of dirt or sand or something. Putting it in an area where there are lots of bars. Renting jackhammers to let people pound away at some concrete. He!! i would use a jackhammer on a cockroach if it didn't tear up my floor in the process.īTW - seeing as how my industry is slowly going the way of men's business hats, I have tried to come up with viable business plans for my next career. you might find a certain gain in volume when you go out of sonar.Ĭ'mon fog, you Brits take all the fun out of stuff. it might cause issues if you do it within any DAW esp if the soundcard is in asio mode. You only need a wave recorder, no point in using a sledge hammer on a walnut.
