Temporary page for Koz' tutorials on overdub recording

This is the draft for the new set of Tutorials written by Koz (Greg Kozikowski).
The link here is to the top-level tutorial that links to each page of the subtutorials,these are broken down by type of hardware and software used.
At this stage they are in VERY rough draft - and are definitely NOT ready for proofreading.

Temporary page for management of outstanding ToDo-2s

As we appear to be moving towards a potential RC for 2.0 (gleaned from following a recent thread on the Team email list) I though it was timely to have a look at the outstanding ToDo-2s that are in the manual. This is a link to a temporary page to manage that process.

Draft FAQ for: Error while opening sound device

This is a link to a draft FAQ response I have developed. This one comes up so many times on the forum, and did again today 16Oct11, that I finally felt nudged to try to do something about it.

Tutorial for CD remixing

This is a link to a draft tutorial for remixing a commercial CD: User:PeterSampson/Tutorial: Re-mixing a CD - Mock Up Version-1
This tutorial was originally written by Audacity user Chuck Moore ( Cfmoore1 ) who wanted to remix some Beatles 2009 Remastered CDs, the early ones which were originally mono but which the studio re-released in 2009 in a pseudo-stereo mix. The studio mix is indeed somewhat odd as it places the instruments on one side of the sound stage and the voices on the other. Sounds ok-ish on speakers if you don't listen closely - but sounds distictly odd on headphones. Chuck undertook for his debut project with Audacity a remix of Please Please Me and has recently finished With The Beatles. His objective was to create a more natural sound stage by taking sound clips and remixing (ambitious for a starter project). I gave him some help with this via the forum and through some PMs. I asked him if he would be good enough to write up his process as a tutorial; this is his draft (which I will Wiki-ise with Wiki markup formatting) - once that is done I will be seeking feedback from the manual "list". He says "I do not mind people putting their knives to what I wrote. The procedure is right but if the wording does not convey to the reader what I did then it needs to be changed."

• Peter 18Jun10: Following f/b from when I first floated this tutorial idea I agree that it is not appropriate for the manual as it is too specific - accordingly.I will probably transfer it to the Wiki at some stage when I get some free time.
