    Digital Clipping: So What?

    Whoa! Music with actual dynamics! What a novelty. :D Sounds pretty good here at work, listening on cans. I did not notice any clips. I may take the cans off and put it up on the speakers to see if it causes a riot. Don

    Digital Clipping: So What?

    In 24-bit integer format, 0 dBFS is an absolute upper limit. In 32-bit float, 0 dBFS is just another point on the scale. BUT (and this is important) A/D and D/A converters work in 24-bit integer format. So it's impossible for the A/D converter to produce a signal over 0 dBFS, and it's impossible...

    Digital Clipping: So What?

    If you're working in 32-bit float format, going above 0 dBFS is not a problem as long as you bring the level down before it hits the D/A converters. If you're in an integer format, there's no such thing as "above" 0 dBFS. If you have more than a few consecutive samples hitting the top, you will...

    recording digital piano

    Line outs on the piano, straight to the line ins on the audio interface. Works great for me.

    Please help

    I assume you mean mix onto your computer, i.e. use the computer as your 2-track mixdown deck. Right? (If you want to transfer 4 tracks to the computer and mix "in the box," the requirements change a bit.) You need a computer (duh) with a decent sound card. A basic commodity sound card might...

    Are the heads clean? Are you using new tape with the correct formulation (chrome/metal) for the machine?

    digital piano to analog to computer?

    Why not just go from the line output on the piano to the line input on the computer? Don (edit) Of course, you won't get the wonderful "analog sound" that way... :D

    Wondering if this will work

    I don't see any reason why it shouldn't work. The Midisport manual says that it can function as a stand-alone MIDI patchbay. Don

    should i record using my computer?

    This statement is not quite accurate. Technically it's true, but there are a couple of important concepts you seem to be missing. Unlike digital-to-analog (D/A) conversion, analog to digital (A/D) conversion is not a trivial task. CD players and other consumer digital playback equipment have...

    signal too hot!

    Just to be clear -- there are sliders on the "Mixer" tab, and there are sliders on the "Hardware Setup" tab. I was talking about the ones on the "Hardware Setup" tab.

    signal too hot!

    I agree that a powered mixer is not ideal for recording. But since you're using the "rec out" outputs, you should at least be able to get a reasonable "off the PA board" mix. I think the problem is that your levels are not set correctly going to and from the computer. Open the Delta control...
