Do I have to use the Digital in and OUT into my computer to get all 8 tracks simultaneously recorded and separated in Cubase. Or with the USB out?

You can use the USB to record tracks at the same time. I'm not sure about the digital in and out function, as I just use the USB.

The USB is the only way to connect the interface to a computer. The digital out is a reflection of the main output, and is used to send audio to monitors or a recorder, ETC... (in other words, the digital out is not for connectivity with a computer, unless, it is a separate computer that is not running the interface) Keep in mind, you need to have USB connectivity before the digital out (or any out) will work.

It'll take any analog audio signal in XLR form and convert it to digital (that's why it's bulky around the USB connector part). Beware, though, this product adds a bit of noticeable hiss and noise to your signal, so you might not want to use it for a final mix if you're outputting from a mixer.

This a Midi controller. This is designed specifically for computer use and will only work when connected to a DAW. I currently use FL Studio with it right now. It is great but my only problem is when I plug it in and activate it with my DAW the pads are not correspondent with the pad on the computer. I have to resync it everytime I open up the plugin. Other than that particular problem the AKAI MPD18 is fine. You have to record the sounds live by using the recorder while the metronome is playing usually, unless you're just that good that you can consistently crank out the exact same bpm every time

It has 8 XLR/combo 1/4 inch inputs that can record on separate tracks and be assigned to the other 16 tracks..Your track files can be imported into the computer...The DP-24 can be used as your control surface for the computer, however, I use it as a stand alone unit and try to stay away from computers, except for storing completed mastered stereo tracks. You can download the Tascam DP-24 manuel directly from Tascam and read up on its capabilities.

Hi Ruth, i honestly do not know. i used a program named cakewalk, (Sonar) and this allowed me to record the keyboard, guitar and vocals through an interface named m audio. it was fairly simple to setup and use, but the equipment, all together, was pricey.

Any soft with MIDI compare (cubase. logic. etc)Its mean you can use it not only with computer soft if you have MIDI connection and great desire to explore:)

I don't have it anymore, but it was a pretty neat unit and you don't need anything but MIDI cables to the computer or a dedicated sound card to capture the headphone output. Because of its inclusion of MIDI in and out, you can use it with other gear, which is nice. However, it has no USB output, which is becoming ever-common on newer gear.

I pull mine through a mixer, into my interface and into my DAW. The only thing is is that you need to do this with mono cables otherwise your output will be terrible. I love how the volcas sound, so any effort you put into this will be well worth it. PS; I had low output until I switched to mono cables.

i dont use the software but i dont think the accompanying software is a recording program. it might be. i use the 2i4 with garageband which will do multitrack recording and then mix down to a stereo track.

It will depend on your DAW, but generally, yes, the device will feed both channels in to the USB stream at one time. Your DAW may treat this as a single stereo track (where the L & R channels can be separates for processing) or two separate tracks.

It kind of depends on the program that you are using but if you look at this 2 black buttons where it says USB/ 2-Track then don't put the main mix on. Maybe its different with other Softwares, but I'm shure if you try around a lil bit with them 2 buttons you'll get it done.

Let me give you an overview of how this works: This mixer is not a "soundcard" type device, rather it is a simple mixer that will hook up to your computer using the digital USB port. It allows for external sources (music players, microphones, guitars, etc.) to be routed to your computer's USB port as a STEREO ONLY (left & right audio channels) input device. Using USB for an input will give you a cleaner audio signal that using old analog cables (RCA, 1/4", etc.) This mixer is not controlled by the computer, but there are audio parameters that you can adjust on your PC computer. If you go to START&gt;CONTROL PANEL&gt;SOUND there you can find the global audio settings for the computer. After installation you "may" find some additional settings such as Overall Volume, Left or Right Panning, Input Levels and Output Levels as well as what devices are available. This mixer is not a multi-track recording mixer/soundcard, but you can record up to 2 independent channels (left and right) at once, and using recording software such as Cakewalk, Magix Music, Adobe, etc. you can build up a recording using two tracks at a time. This is a great little mixer to start with for uses that do not require advanced audio engineering demands.

You could use any mixer/interface with multiple XRL inputs. To record each input as a separate track (which you will want to do to get a better quality drum recording), you'll want a USB or firewire interface. For a cheap multitrack recording program, you can look into Reaper, and some interfaces even come with their own programs. I hope this helps! Best of luck.

Yes, you plug a cable from this turntable into your sound card, or "line in" jack. You run the enclosed software (or other brands and versions available both free online and for purchase) to tell the computer to save the "file" (digital recording) as either a .wav or an mp3. Then you can burn those tracks to a CD, or play them from a flash drive, or put them on your iPod, or.... Hope this helps.

Your best bet would be to record your backing track into the Tascam (you have 8 tracks to use), then add a mike and record into a different track. The. Tascam has an equalizer so you can adjust the spund of your vpice as desired. Great little device. I wasted two years buying one software package after another to use on my computer and none of them were worth a toot. I love the Tascam for its ease and portability. The learning curve is moderate but the manual is very good at walking your through the process of making a master track (wav file) which can then be uploaded onto your computer. I downloaded another free software to change the wav file into an mp3. You'll love the Tascam onvce you are used to using it.

You can import and export sounds or loops into it by connecting it to a computer. .flac files, i have not connected mine to see what the files are saved as.

I looked at the mixer and it looks like the usb is only for plugging in mp3 players. You need a audio interface to connect to a laptop I use Roland UA-1G whith my laptop. Sorry for my first response I always just assumed that was what it was for.
