Setup Problems

[thr33bz]

I own a behringer ub1222fx-pro desk, and a t.bone sc-300 microphone, now at the moment, i have the mic going to the desk and then into the computer, and the instrumentals from da computer going into my stereo then thru the headfones. Can anyone help me?

I need to know how to get the music from the PC into the mixing desk, WITHOUT it recording the music and the vocals when recording in cubase?

I am a little unsure what you mean by "into the mixing desk WITHOUT it recording..."

You are recording to Cubase, right?

If you are trying to send the music from the computer out to the mixer just for monitoring purposes you will need to output from the CPU to the mixer, but you will need to send the individual mic feed back to the CPU to record from its inserts, not from the main outs on the board.

Kind of confusing answer, I know. More info would help me be a little clearer.

Sounds like you need to become familiar with the busses of your mixer...take a look at this great article on how to hook up your mixer: http://www.tweakheadz.com/how_to_hookup_a_mixer.htm -->very helpful stuff !

basically, i have a phono to 3.5mm cable from my phono output of the mixer going into the computers line in. This records da audio coming from my microphone.

and then i have a phono to 3.5 cable coming from the output of the pc(the music playing) going into the input port on the phono jack of the mixer.

When i record using cubase sx3 on my computer, it picks up the music that im laying the vocals over and the vocals coming into the computer, in the channel im recoridng into. i want to know how i can stop this.

so basically how it only records the vocals (the output of the mixer) and not the music(the input of the mixer).

BTW it has no ALT 3-4 outs. which what was mentioned on the past post

If you run the output from the your computer back into your mixer, it will record all of your previous tracks onto the current track...which is the problem, I believe, that you are having.

If your mixer doesn't have an Alt 3/4 bus, your best work around is to connect your speakers or headphones directly from the output on your pc.

And if you're using speakers to monitor your previous tracks, make sure you move the mic away from them while recording the current track so it doesn't pick up the already-recorded stuff.

It does get confusing...hope this helps a little, though.

By the way, I just looked up that mixer...have you tried using the Aux Returns? Refer to that link to see how to set it up.
