As I always say, it's not the tool that is used that's the problem, it's usually the tool that uses it.

That the clever method you made, isn't conforming with the MSDN documentation and therefore might be dependent on a bug.
What do you do?
- Fix the (at the moment nonexistent) problem despite taking several days, just to make sure a nasty bug doesn't appear whenever MS changes their method, which they might never do.
- Or do you add a comment to the method in question stating what the fix is if it's ever needed.
- Other.

The answer would depending on many things like:
- If MS fixes their bug, would our bug immediately be visible, and if so, how severe would its impact be?
- Would it affect the core functionality of whatever product/system it's part of?
- Would it lead to revenue loss?
- Would this have a domino effect of some sort?
- How difficult is it to fix the bug at our end?
No matter what, I'd most certainly log it as a defect so that it could be tracked formally. And based on the answers to the questions above, the bug might have an appropriate priority anywhere from "Sometime before Christmas" to "MUST BE DONE YESTERDAY!"
All said, if the said code could be easily re-written or a fix could be made available relatively painlessly, I'd fix it up without putting it off.

You can't deploy code to production that requires special instructions. "In case of fire, pull handle, kiss ass goodbye".
I would try to use another way, if possible.

Are you by any chance working as a consultant?

Nope - If I were, I wouldn't do it that way. As a consultant you have to bill as many hours as humanly possible so in that case, I would definitely investigate the problem... Slowly... Very slowly...

So you're implementing methods before reading the documentation?
How do you fully know how/when/what it does and may not do then?
At least a skim of the headings/parameters/return/exceptions is worthwhile, MSDN docs are not bad and they will note special info in there as well.
I mean, if you find a strange substance do you taste it before checking the label to see if its poisonous?
"Mmmm looks like cookies, yum <crunch crunch="">, wonder what they are called ... Rat-X!!! Yikes!!!"

I might need some help here.
I'm recording some music on computer. As long as I use clean instruments (song, acoustic guitar, clean electric guitar, drums, ...) everything is fine, but from the moment I turn on my distortion, it sounds like a dentist drill shoved up my brain.
I've tried many, many things and I ruled out some issues already:
* It's not my Marshall (MG 100 HDFX)
* It's not the pedals themselves (Boss GT-3)
* It's not the guitar (Gibson Studio +)
* It's not my wireless guitar system, tried with a cable as well
I'm thinking the issue is with the sound device (Roland UA-55), but there I tried almost everything I could set: using autosense, playing mono instead of stereo, setting all the switches on/off.
It's not the laptop I think, because the sound is plugged in/out via the sound device in/out, not the laptop. Besides, It's an expensive piece of equipment, I would think it would just "work".
I've searched google, but very little comes up. Except that recording overdrive/distortion can be "tricky" business, yet my friend uses a pod device and never had any issues.
If all else fails I can always turn to my irig, which should still work (it's emulated on the laptop), but frankly this just has to work. (and the Marshall distortion is just great, I'd like to use that one)
Anyone any experience with this? what could the problem be?
Many thanks for any tips on resolving my issue.
[update]
Luckily for me the irig through my iPad works! Clean as a wistle. (Well, "clean" as in, not sounding like the dentist drill mentioned above). Still I'll try to resolve the issue with the pedals/amp.

Is it "One night in Paris" or "The Money Pit"?
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Oh dear. Recording guitar with effects pedals is not a straightforward thing. Basically, when you attempt to direct record via sound input, the pedals are going to overload the card - they are just too powerful. I would recommend using a powered digital-in preamp that connects via USB or FireWire.

Isn't my sound device, just that?
And secondly, I tried the "emulated line out/headphones" on my amp as well. Same issue. Or am I missing the point? If a headphone can capture the sound right, the line in of the sound device should as well, right?
|
|
|
|

My first thought was impedance mismatch, if you can record straight with out issues it's only when using a pedal it all goes sideways it could be the pedal has a DC offset in its output or it boosts certain frequencies outside the band. The headphone option is puzzeling it kinda puts my suggestion out the window. Sounds silly but have you tried another PC, some times the input stage can be a little variable...
|

The whole point behind distortion pedals is that they boost frequencies to create a controlled distortion sound - there's a lot of boost going on in there. What would be interesting is running the distortion through a compressor to see what effect that has.

True, but I have found Boss & Roland pedal which do the 'same' thing have some oddities at certain frequency's...(I had a load of FX pedal belonging to a guitarist friend of mine and a 'scope)
