    effect send on bass head..

    hey, whats the best way for me to play my bass through my head, but to also record a line feed to a di box? I have an effect send loop on the back, is this a suitable signal? I've never gave it much thought. Any other input would be great... its a hartke 2000 head if it makes a difference

    question on what interface

    well the boss 1600 is gonna be twice the price, and if you have a good computer as you said, you dont really need all those computer-related features that you pay for on the boss, but it would be great to use standalone. i have the motu 828 mkI, paid like 400 on ebay for it. it works great...

    what could be causing this.. (sample mp3)

    ac pollution? I don't think that would cause this. I do a lot of portable recoridng and have had the same problem in at least three different locations. I've heard of a other motu users complaining of "scratchy" pots. Could this be causing a problem? Like I said before, I seem to get the...

    SB Audigy 2 Platinum any good?

    my first interface was the m-audio transit USB. It was list 99.99, I got it for 79.99 on sale. Ended up selling it on ebay for about the same price (gotta love ebay!). It allowed for stereo recording if I remember correctly, you could get a splitter and have 2 tracks of recording at above cd...

    what could be causing this.. (sample mp3)

    I have been getting this distortion/clicks n pops/static in my recordings for a while. Even just recording a single track it happens. It goes off and on so I'm almost positive it's on the computer/software end. I have a clip link listed below, can someone check it out? Someone with more...

    inputs

    each of the 1/4 inputs will record its own track, so you can record two tracks at once (a guitar and vocals, etc.). you will end up with two wav files. depending on the software, they may show up panned, one right and one left like stereo, but you may just need to center each track... hope...

    very possibly a stupid simultaneous multitracking question.

    i have the motu 828, and though it only has two mic preamps, you have gain adjustment for the remaining 6 inputs. I have 2 mics for vocal, 2 on cabinets, and 4 mics on a drum kit. They all sound fine if you crank up the gain. If you use software that supports ASIO drivers (i use n-track) you...
