Man, it really depends on what kind of sound you want for that track. Some basics..... reverb (not much, dont drown your vocals) a nice delay i've seen compressors put on vocals before but its never ever a lot!! eq your voice. Do it so it sounds nice. PLEASE DO NOT drown your vocals in...

Q: I recorded some acoustic tracks on track 1 then a second guitar part on track two but I am getting alot of hiss while playing back , how do I correct this? A: I used to get hiss when I first started using it too. I think it has to do with how high your levels are. I try to keep my tracks...

Re: 488 try adjusting the trim knob at the top. the knob is at the top of track 1 and 2. You can turn it towards line or mic. If you turn the knob towards mic the signal gets louder. Adjust your track and main levels. But when recording watch, make sure you monitor the groups that have...

thanks aight bet thanks

If anybody here is familiar with the Tascam 488 8 track recorder... I just wanted to know if its AT ALL possible to hook up a cd burner to the 488 or maybe even to my mixer. Instead of always recording to tapes, i was interested in burning cd's directly from it. I know I can use my computer...

Which outs do I use when pluggin my monitors into my 488? Im guessing i have to plug them into the group outs, but that just dosnt seem right. And when I use the phone jack, pan does not work. Please help. Thanks =]

Yea they are. If you learn quick and can figure out things on your own (trial & error) then it wont be hard. The 488 is not hard to use at all, but there are certain details that people need to know that would be in the manual. Ill definately email you one. I would email everybody one who needs...

Mine came with a power cord. So I guess thats self powered. Yes you can use monitors. Shii, You can plug a pair of speakers into the phone jack if you really have to. But yes its possible. I've been searching for a manual this WHOLE week. No happs. Cant find one. Ill continue to look, but I...

Can anybody help me out? I own the 2000 and I've read the manual but im still unclear on how to plug something like my keyboard into it so I can play something and save it as a loop. Then I wanted to assign it to one of the pads. I know how to assign sounds to the pads, I just need help sampling...

im glad to hear that. I have read the MPC manual but im still not clear on how to plug in something like my keyboard, play something, save it as a loop, and assign it to one of the pads. At the company I work at they have it hooked up that way. If you know anything bout that, I would love to get...

Man everybody starts somewhere. Im not sure why the experienced folks always down the rest, but do your thing. If its comfortable and is giving you a good sound. I say go for it. Like you said, there's a lot of fine tuning to do. But as far as the monitors go, they should be placed so that it...

I was wondering what good equipment should be considered when dealing with rap, hiphop & rnb. Not just rapping but composing the actual music. I use an MPC 2000, kawai keyboard, tascam 488, guitar w/amp, and a small 8 trk mixer. I need more sounds and effects. But I wanna expand my shit. And I...
