Hey, i'm trying to solve a problem, maybe you can help.
I also have fast track pro, I'm trying to record the line out (play part of youtube video and record audio in Cubase for example), but I cant set it up to record the output like I used to with EMU 0404 i had before. Is there a way to do it, cause I tried everything?
dude do you know if i can still record with the fast track with out having the speakers .. like just with my micc fastrack and computer? or do i ''need speakers''? please let me know ..! thank you!!
Help me bro, do i need to have a ''Reference monitor speaker'' or whatever to use this? I'm getting into making beats, but i only have a speaker set up from logitech called Logitech Speaker System Z323.
@raptor93D I don't want to say yes, but if you can somehow connect your speakers to the RCA connections in the back of the fast track pro, you will probably be able to!
No, there are 2 inputs on the front of the Fast Track Pro. You can plug one in for your microphone, and one in for your guitar. With the input it can take TS/TRS or XLR (Different types of cables).
For your guitar you will want a TS cable, and it plugs into the front then you just adjust your volume. If you have a really hot signal, just put the PAD on then adjust your volume!
hey i dont have the TRS in my speakers(sony) ! Well , my speakers are connected first to my subwoofer than the subwoofer to my Pc . How can i connect the M-audio fast track pro to my speakers plz , do you think that i have to connect the subwwofer to the audio interface ?
It sounds like you have like real computer speakers.
But if you do have Reference monitor speakers this is how it goes:
go from your audio interface OUT, to the Subwoofer IN, then the Subwoofer Out, into your Reference monitor speakers, then it's just a matter of making the m-audio fast track pro your sound card inside your DAW (Music program)
I have the more basic version of this and when I try to record my guitars, direct out from my amp no miced, I see the signal in cubase but nothing records. Any ideas as to why?
@beatstruggles No I hear nothing in cubase, though the level indicator moves when I play, signifying cubase is receiving a signal. Of course I hit record :P but theres nothing to indicate its recording a signal, its like when you hit record and do nothing.
The only thing I can think of is that you do not have your audio options set up right like having your fast track as your sound card -- you may have your computers sound card rather than the fast track interface! Double check in your audio options! -- make sure your drivers are up to date, try different USB ports, try with microphones etc. Other than that, I'm not sure man =/ sorry!
Ya, I've never done it, so don't take this 100% -- but I'm pretty sure you use TRS 1/4" cables from the output (if no output then headphone jack) of your keyboard into the front of the audio interface and record! If I'm wrong sorry =/
Canon EOS Rebel T3 -- very happy with it man, I've made a couple slide shows on youtube with it. I've never had a camera like this till recently, the pictures DSLR's take are unreal! Either check out my channel to see the slide shows or search "the Glory of God pop beat"
I wanna get this interface, but I heard that there are some driver issues when your using a 64bit OS, only 32 bit drivers exist, and second you should let people know that they have to disable their default sound card, so M audio would work, your next video should be about installing fast track pro.
I am not too happy with the interface myself when it comes to recording vocals/plugging in instruments. I have a youtube review on the audio interface. And thank-you for the idea, when I get some time, we'll see what happens about installing it.
Could be the cord that you plug in from your headphones. I find with my headphones I have to turn/rotate the cord until it gets both speakers working.
Thanks bruh...

Hey man! If you're plugging into a guitar amp do you do the same? (i.e. Do you need two leads? Where do they go?) Cheers!

Do you hear your guitar in cubase? Just no recording? -- Not to sound rude lol, but make sure you have the record button hit!
