    to record at studio or invest in recording equipment

    Tips, anyone?

    Hello all, I am using the Tascam 414MKII for recording, but I have a simple problem. Channel 1 doesn't work. I enjoy recording in stereo, so that already takes up 2 channels, only one left, which I would use to put some vocals on. I am sequencing from my computer. I guess my question is ...

    HELP!

    I appreciate all the help, but that's what I've been doing hte whole time, is having my left out into my 1 MIC/LINE IN, and the right out into 2 MIC/LINE IN. Honestly there might be something wrong with the first channel because I just don't get the recording on that track. I'll try 3&4 next.

    QS6.1 tips, tricks, and questions!!!

    You can store your mixes either on the synth or directly to a PC FLASH CARD, which goes for about 100 bucks or so. You might want to even get one for the hell of it, you can really do a lot of neat things with them. Sometimes, I burn wav files onto the card, and create my own little program.
