I'm having trouble recording a second set of tracks on top of
the originals. The signal is weak for the second set. Here's my
setup:
Behringer 2004A Mixer
Delta 66/OmniStudio
N-track software (Delta Control Panel hardware settings: ins 1-4 all
+4db)
So, we (the band) are recording "live", going to the 1/4" ins of the mixer. Main outs (L,R) of the mixer going to the line ins 3,4 of the Omni. That's cool. Getting a good strong signal. Everything sounds good on playback through our monitors. But, when recording while playing back the original tracks, the resulting set of tracks shows a significantly weaker signal than the originals. Should I expect this? How do I record on playback to get a 'matched' signal level.
Please enlighten a dumb bass player. Are drummers better at this recording stuff?
