I posted this in another forum but, after some thinking I probabley should have posted it here. I just recieved a Yamaha MG12/4 12-Input 4 Bus Mixer and M-audio's Delta 44. I would like to record Four Simultaneous tracks for the drums. Snare, bass drum, overhead and maybe hi-hat. I would like to use the mixer to mix before I send it to the breakout box and then do additional mixing, if needed, in software.
My questions is how to send it to the Break out box. I know that it looks like traditionally you pan it to the AUX bus 1 or 2 and then 1/4 out to the break-out box. But that means that if I had 4 MIC inputs that they would be squeezed into just two. Does that sound right? I would like to keep as much seperated so once I get it into my recording software that I have the ablity to tweek it more if needed.
According to the Yamaha MG12/4 manual the I/O input is traditional used for additional effects. I guess if I try using the Mic input then I/O out to the Break-out box that it would work but, Im not certain, and if I do this will I be able to still use the EQ on the board. I dont know please let me know if there is an easier way, This seems like a nice board and I would like to get its full potential out of it.
Thanks..
