What exactly do you mean by "pull clip gains down"? In GarageBand I can add a "utility"-plug-in called "gain", where I can reduce (or higher) the gain of the individual track. Is this what you mean?
I read somewhere, that it's a good method to reduce all the individual tracks to the same lower...
Thanks a lot for the comments! I guess I just had a misconception about the levels. Now I understand, of course, that adding tracks, even if they are low on level will eventually lead to a high(er) total. stupid me! :-)
I guess thats like having several glasses all filled just with a little...
I am using GarageBand 11 to record our band with an 8-track digital interface (zoom r16). We have leveled all the channels going into the interface on a mixer. When I record the tracks (8 tracks simultaneously), the level meters in GarageBand (little level meter on the left side of each track)...
Yes, that's what we would like to do, routing inputs to subgroups, but not like you suggest the guitars etc, but the way i initially listed above. Do you know technically how to do this? I know it's possible, but i don't know how to make the settings and the manual is not very detailed in this...
Thanks a lot for your response.
What you are suggesting is probably what we have to do, if we don't find a way to make the connections with only the Xenyx 2442.
But I surely hope there is a "one-device-only"-solution, moneywise, but also because there seem to be so many options within the 2442...
We have a Behringer Xenyx 2442FX, which obviously has more than 8 input channels, but the digital-interface we use (zoom r16) only provides 8 channels for simultaneous recording (onto a mac, garageband).
I believe it must be possible though, to somehow route more than 8 input channels, for...
