hey i was going to upgrade from my analog mixer to a firewire or usb interface. Most likely a usb for price reasons. My main question would be - with the tascam 1641 when you record drums in cubase - does each drum (mic) come up as a separate track so you can eq all the drums separately?

[rayskipper]

@mycomputer5 yes they come up as separate tracks

[crubbish123]

dose the tascam you use record all your mics on to differnt channles

[rayskipper]

yes, all diff channels, but all on cubase.

[oppossum4000]

impressed with the eulogy lick comin from a beginner

[rayskipper]

:-D

[sleeplessinhfx]

I don't think I would be putting an SM57 on the kick. most ppl would use SM BETA 52

nice studio

Hey, do you know what kind of wood that SCF04 acoustic guitar is made of?

[uberhippie666]

ahh been looking at getting one of the tascam's you have, im assuming from this video theres no problem running it on a pretty standard laptop, everyone ive seen using them have epic home computers and stuff. My laptop's not shit but its not particularly mindblowing ether, so if i bought one it would be fine running into ether cubase(obviously) or ableton suite 8 on my laptop, which i have no current recording issues with? cheers.

I also have the M-Audio AV40. I love those speakers!

[kylethapk]

do u do acoustic treatments in ur room

[kylethapk]

epic fail at tha begining lol

[sartoriusrock]

if i were you i would go with logic as opposed to cubase; the user interface is much better.

[jdogg288]

sounds like camea audio still.

[MrMusic95]

you seem like a really nice guy :) keep it up, and i am looking forward to hear some more things from your studio!

[slammah2012]

It sucks that you have to use the Asio drivers.......this makes the tascam us 1641 a slave to the steinberg licence...

Unlike all my other interfaces (like the RME hammerfall and alesis Adat PCR) The Tascam drivers will not work as a multi in on Cool Edit and Audition because only the first 2 inputs and 2 outputs (headphone out) get recognised....

back to the store it goes

[saipanguitarman]

nice but you didnt panpot any mics to make a stereo image.. everything here is in mono not stereo.. but clear mmics!!!
