    sending tracks outboard and then back in??

    I am trying to send tracks from CEP 2 to my Tascam mixer and outboard gear via a Delta 44 and then return a 2 track mix via the Delta to two open tracks of CEP. But the two open tracks record "in the box". I cant seem to get the two open track to only record the outboard signal. ?????? -mike

    M-30 201 (Intermediate mixing)

    O.k. Reel Person ang Ghost. I got the M-30 basically rockin and its pretty cool. The pre-amps and gain structure continues to impress me with how quiet it is. The EQ is REALLY sensitive, though, and can be really phasey on some sources....like cymbols. Anyway I have my DELTA hooked to channels...

    Ohh....the depths of my ignorance!!!!!!

    O.k. Reel or Ghost. I need a freakin walk through with the M-30. I can mix with the Submix section no problem. This is with Delta44 into 1-4 LINE IN's and my monitors plugged into the Monitor Outs. Pans are scratchy on 1-3 of the Sub pots but thats just further cleaning. I'm surprised how...

    Help me Reel Person, you're my only hope

    OK. So I get some new RCA cords for the M-30 and rearrrange the furniture. I hook up the Delta 44 outs 1-4 to TAPE IN of channels 1-4. And I put the Monitors on the Monitor Outs. Only the Submix sections 1-4 gain/pan knobs affect the sound. And only in the PRE or TAPE position. this makes...

    The path.....

    Ok so I am getting to the point where having only 4 tracks of simultaneous recording on my VS880Vx is not enough. Although I love the unit, I am trying to get into a more flexible full 8-track set up. I have a possible opportunity to aquire a VSR880HD. This would be perfect as its...

    Can you use a figure 8 mic as an overhead??

    I mean I know I CAN use it....but would even be worth it sound wise. Here's my situation. I only have a limited number of mics. RE20 (kick) Sm57 (snare) E200 (overhead in fig 8 maybe) Ecm8000 (originally going for OH but the room is SMALL) NT3 P45i (peavy sm58-ish) and a couple of crappy RS...

    an this be done on a 424MK II???

    I was wondering if that ol' trick where you pass a signal through the tape deck but directly out to a digital recorder in order to get the "tape" sound on digital can be done on my 424MK II??? I am not sure where the tape outs come in the signal path. Am I correct in believing that they come...

    Focurite Penta tube sound ????

    Focusrite Penta tube sound ???? Can anybody tell me how the tube simulation/saturation works in the Focusrite Penta. It certainly doesn't sound like a "toob" type thing. It actually sounds very good on just about everything. Its very smooth and continuous from "cool" to "warm". And its doesnt...

    Anyone use the Roland U-8 controller???

    This looks like the perfect match to my VS88o and computer since my Audiowerk2 card (SPDIF) wont play nice with my Delta 44. just curious for any feedback or comparisons to say the Tascam Us-428. -mike

    Calling Jake-Owa....or any Tascam knowledge bases

    A couple of weeks ago some asked for help picking out a mixer and Jake posted some e-bay links to an M-280 and a couple of M-160 mixers saying that the pre-amps in these older units were quite good condidering......better than the budget Makies of today. Is the M-30 in the same class as far as...

    Pseudo m/s teqnique???

    I was just reading through on of my old Tape Op issued on the can last night and read an artticle about using m/s matrix recording in unconventional ways. I have a figure 8 mic but have no idea how to set up a a matrix to split the signal. So I figured that i could use three mics on an amp to...

    Alesis Studio24 mixers...????

    How decent are these boards? I was looking at a Studiomaster Mixdown 16:8 (which is available again, and I am going to check out) and I know Track Rat had one and liked it, but I have heard these boards can be noisy. How quiet are the Alesis 24s?? I am looking for something that will...

    Bass guitar weirdness........???

    Today I recorded some tracks with a friend. He has just aquired a new Musicman bass (not the super high-end, but $1G level)....its a very nice and super playing instument. I really just wanted to practice getting bass recorded so we slapped down some cheesy keyboard beasts and he just grooves...

    Any thoughts on the BELLARI RP503 ??

    I just got a 286A and like it so far......not initially overly impressed with it on my E-200 but great with RE-20. Any way I was considering the Bellari as a tube / "toob" companion to the 286A. I like the whole channel strip idea because of the space/bang/buck. Anyone who's had any...
