I'm not a professional, so please excuse me if this in layman's terms . . .
I've owned a Plant Phatt for a couple of years now and I've always had difficulty recording from it - playback to headphones is fine.
I'm using Cakewalk 9.0 on a PC, simply feeding the midi to Emu Planet Phatt and trying to record direct from the sound module.
When I use my (standard) JVC headphones the sound is crystal clear, but when I try to record (to 4-track, standard tape or MiniDisc), the bass rasps and the treble is muffled.
Even when I drop my recording levels significantly - I still get the problem. I've tried toning the bass down, but it doesn't seem to make a difference - I've also tried using the other outputs on tje Planet Phatt, but I get the same results.
Can you tell me what's causing this and if I can get round this with my current set-up?
If not - do I need to buy more equipment, and if so, what? Someone I work with suggested a DIN (i.e. microphone-type) lead, but I don't understand why that would make a difference
Thanks
