Recording Kit How To???
I am trying to find a way to record 4 tracks (live) at once with a decent but affordable audio interface
Either fire wire or usb.
I have purchased an Alexis I04 recently , but it wont play ball with Acid Pro 8 and the Cubase wont work either..
So it works as a mixer but not as a recording interface for me.
I have been recomended the Akai unit, but on the internet this also has lots of driver issues.
Previously I have used a Line pod 6 UX2 which is brilliant, but it only does 2 channels at once.
Plus the valve recording station shown above..(cheap used off ebay)
Help has anyone cracked an easy afordable way of doing this with low noise, maybe with a USB mixer.?
I'm trying to find the right bit of kit seems much more tricky than it needs to be..
Also do cheap USB mixers add loads of noise or are they ok for recording and does anyone do one that allows four track recording into Acid pro all at once.
All ideas are wellcome.....

$250 for a 4CH. Presonus USB interface comes with multi track software that you upgrade for like $90 and you get more effects and mastering software program. You got to pay to play bug.
I have the firewire version it has 2 preamp ch. and 6 line inputs on the back and 2 midi for 10+2

Go to the presonus site bug. They have compatibility charts . Buying electronics on e-bay is a crapshoot. Amazon has some of this stuff used.
But the software is good stuff worth the money everything is drop and drag even midi. Should be some USB3 stuff coming out soon. Who has USB3?

just for the record here's what I do ................ if you come over i'll give you demo (-;
IN OUT
vocals >>>>> mixer >>>>> interface >>>>>>>PC USB >>>> phones/powered speakers from interface output
guitar >>>>>> " (sequencer)
bass >>>>>> "
drums >>>>> "
if you record the above simultaneously will appear on one track.
