Hi All, Newbie here so apologies if this has been discussed before. I'm about to upgrade my recording system, but before i do i'd like some advice.
I'm a guitarist/vocalist ,using midifile backing tracks.
I use Audacity to convert midi files to WAV / mp3. I'd like to add further tracks guitar / harmonies etc. on to the original .
The problem i have is how can i overdub without the first track coming through the microphone as well.
Is there a mixing desk that can do this ? i'm thinking a switch main to headphones ??
or do i go down the Interface way ? Or is there something simple i am missing ?
I currently use Cakewalk to Windows thro a Roland JV1080 to an old Behringer desk.
Any help / advice would be appreciated, but i'm retired so please speak in language that this old guy would understand.
Thank You
Eddie
