I have a question for you guys. I"m pretty new to homerecording, but i 'm working on an album i' already have the beats. Now is time to record the vocals.
I have a Behringer hooked up to the aux2 of my Soundblaster drive. Every time i record the music i have to select DIGITAL OUTPUT ONLY in my soundblaster card mixer for the music to record decent without much distortion. i record the music to Cakewalk in track 1. NOw i want to record the vocals on track 2 so i have to play back the music right? (still with me?) But remeber in order to record good without too much noise i have to choose DIGITAL OUTPUT ONLY in my soundblaster card mixer. the problem is that when i do that the music tha i'm playing back to record the vocals i wont be able to hear. I have recorded before without activating the DIGITAL OUTPUT ONLY button and it and the vocals record fine but i feel there is too much noise stil. i know if i record DIGITAL OUTPUT ONLY i wont get as much noise. but the problem is how am i going to hear the music to record the vocals.
I hope you guys can give me some suggestions
if i wasn't too clear let me know
