I'm curious, may I ask why you choose to use inputs 1 and 2 to record the drum machine to trax 1 and 2 instead of plugging into inputs 9-10, 11-12 which are stereo inputs. Thanks !
Hi there, partly by habit really but also so there’s the option of adding eq if required. The stereo inputs could be a good option though in some scenarios.👍
@@YY-bv3ik You’re welcome and I hope it helps you get up and running with your 488! 👍 I wiped tracks 5-7 by recording new music on them, but recording silence over the previous material would do the trick too.
@@mikepass4435 Many thanks and great to hear you found it useful! I kept it pretty simple for the transfer to my computer (no mix bus compression etc). I’d recommend allowing a fair bit of headroom when transferring to digital though and going for a highish sample rate though (I used 24bit 48khz). Also double check that you’ve got both channels balanced on your audio interface to keep the stereo imaging of your mix intact.
@@wehappyfewmusic I bet. My recent buy a 424mkiii ended up having a bad Monitor level pot. Was the only thing wrong with an otherwise top condition machine. Will be in the shop a fair while as they wait for the part to come in on one of their bulk part orders.
@@wehappyfewmusic Thanks for the note. My 488 is still coming from Japan. He is a 100% seller on eBay, so I expect no problems. Paid a tad more, too. So, I'll let you know how it proceeds. Marc.
@@wehappyfewmusic Indeed. Thanks for paying attention. So, this is my fourth listen and I pick up new stuff every time. I think I said I'm 77, so it takes time to sink in. You're always helpful, so I really dig this stuff.
