Can I record 3 seperate tracks at one time into Reaper with this device? For example, im wanting to record a vocal group of 3. I know I can put 2 XLR mics in the front and then I can use an adapter for the other input on the back for the 3rd mic. Thanks.

For the third you need a mic preamp to accept the line level inputs 3&4 on the back.

Got that coming from a mixer that has the pre-amps. I guess my question is how does Reaper seperate the 3 mics and 3 sperate tracks?

You just have to tell Reaper what to use as the input for each track. So, you open Reaper, make 3 new tracks and set each one to record input 1 and 2 and 3 respectively.

What he said.

I have never used reaper, but use cubase exclusively. I imagine there is a control panel of some sort to tell reaper what device you are using and a place where you enable/disable inputs and outputs.
