Abstract: A method of using a personal computer to create a digital recording of a substantially continuous audio performance sub-divided by tracks. Digital audio signals are provided to an input port of the personal computer. A software application program causes the computer screen to display “Record”, “Next”, and “Stop” buttons. Clicking the Record initiates recording and the creation of a first digital audio file. Clicking the Next button ends the current track and immediately starts the recording of a second track on a new digital audio file. Clicking the Stop button stops all recording and closes the currently-opened digital audio file. Created digital audio files corresponding to the created tracks are stored upon the computer's hard drive. Incoming digital audio signals are temporarily stored in RAM to create a time-delay buffer before being included within a digital audio file that is stored upon the hard drive.

Abstract: Dynamic advertising scheduling, display, and tracking for the world wide web. The invention includes at least one template web page that has conventional HTML codes defining the format and content of the web page. Special "ad tags" are used to indicate the characteristics of an ad that can be displayed on a web page at the position of the ad tag. A request to view a page is sent to a server-resident parser. The parser accesses the template for the requested page, parses the conventional HTML codes, and provides such codes to the user. In addition, the parser "expands" each ad tag to standard HTML code that defines the characteristics of an ad. During expansion of ad tags, the parser determines from each ad tag the type of ad that can be inserted at the page position of the ad tag; a bin identifier defining which ads can be associated with the ad tag; a page identifier of the page associated with the ad tag; and various optional flags and codes.
