Who here owns a Soundcraft M8?

[Pier Calacino]

I was wondering if anyone here uses a Soundcraft Spirit M8 for their DAW. I was hoping for some hook-up help?

What's the problem, mon amie?

Helo Tex,

Well I just got this thing home and I want to hook it up to my dedicated computer for a DAW. I have been using a Yamaha MD8. But anyway, I want to plug in my synth, drum machine, guitar pedal and mics in to the M8. I then want to plug in to the sound card and then monitor back from the sound card the prerecorded tracks while recording agian with out mixing back in the prerecorded tracks into the main mix"

Do you what input/ ouputs I should be using on the M8 in order to do this?

Thanks
Pier

Ahh - M-series mixers are beautiful. What type of Soundcard do you have. I'll be able to tell you the optimum settings that work for me once I know your soundcard. Thanks.

Hello Harvardshark,

I have just put together a dedicated DAW. So I am just now configuring and connecting. I have an Audiophile 24/96 card and I am going to use Cakewalk guitar track pro.

Do you use the M Series? and if so, how (what out puts/ in puts) and where do you have it connected?
