@charlesalmero331 3 года назад

@@kettnercreative Question... Are you familiar with running multi audio interfaces simultanuosly within a DAW through the Aggregate option in your Audio MIDI Setup (Mac)? If so, will the MG10XU be detected as another "audio interface" through the Mac? I haven't had a chance to try it out myself, but I was wondering if you ever tried it.

@epicon6 3 года назад

I love the MG12XU because it has faders, clear and bright on/off switches for each channel and it has an audition button for each channel so you can set the gain for each channel without raising the main volume to 0. And it has a more accurate volume meter with more notches. And it doesn't need an external power brick because it's built in and the panel is at a nice angle because it's tilted.

@CopyWhoTV 7 месяцев назад

I understand that you can record two inputs. Can you record the stereo output of all the mics being used on the mixer? Can it be recorded as a stereo pair via USB?

@professorfether9338 6 месяцев назад

"stereo pair via usb" that's a combined question. The usb will output a stereo signal no matter the inputs. If you pan the inputs, you can turn this mixer into a multi-track ...outputter, for lack of a better word (it's not a recorder) ...as in a 2 track recorder. However you pan the inputs will be sent via stereo out. This thing is a ...what...10? input device? 10 input 2 output. 10 in MIXER...2 output...left and right.

@mikec8216 3 года назад

Great video, thanks. Question - can I use this usb output to a DAW to record ALL channel inputs (say I have 2 mics and 2 stereo keyboards hooked up) to 2 channel stereo vs. multitrack?
