I just upgraded my system and have realized that there are several ways I could hook up my equipment, but I would like to hear all of my options before I get any further on my system. I'm recording to hardisk using Cakewalk Pro Audio 9.
I have a Mackie 1202
Aardvark LX6 with 4 in 6 out breakout box
MK-4902 Midi Keyboard
Roland Sound Canvas module
My questions are:
Should I go into my mixer then out to the
breakout box?
If so, through the channel outs or through the main outs
Or should I go into the Break out box then to the mixer just for monitering? (my Break out box also has a headphone plug for monitering)
When should I convert my midi to audio in the whole process? At that point I would have to go out from my mixer into the break out box right?
