i'm new to this forum. wondering if anyone could give me some advice. just bought a TC fireworx and would like to know what the optimal way of connecting it into my present setup might be.
i have a MOTU 828 MK 2 ( analog and digital ins/outs) runing into a G4 1.25 and using Digital Performer 4.1. i have no external mixing board.

I would like to know any information on connecting two roland 2480's any info is great :D

I have decided to use a patchbay to connect the wall jacks to the back on the console. I have ADC patchbay with punchdown's in the back. My question is will I reverse the + and - on the patchbay when I wire it up ? There is a phase button on each channel. The mixer ( Tac Scorpion )shows the XLR and line inputs as being =

pin 1 - sleeve
pin 2 - -
pin 3 - +

What do I do first? I got m-audio firewire and I guess i'l use the reason adapted, I'm an old reel-to-reel guy and would like to put my old stuff on CD.But I just dont get this new digital gear.
You know it looks easy, the reason mixer board... But how do I get it to talk to the m-audio hardwear?

Hi all !

I've got all my DAW-components (mic, mixer, soundcard, software, etc), but I can't seem to figure out how to connect them properly so I can:
- record a mic track while listening to previously recorded tracks thru headphones
- after recording, listen to all tracks thru my speakers (without replugging cables)

Hey there,

I presently have a 2 in/ 2 out sound card from emagic and I am looking around for an upgrade. I need an 8 in 8 out card lwith an external AD/DA converter ike the MOTU mk2/3 or the Aardvarkq10 etc etc. - the reason being, I'd like to record drums with a track per mic. (as you can imagine, trying to record drums on just two tracks is hard work)

When I connect my Mackie cr1604's "aux/monitor outputs" channel 2 to the quadraverb's input, then I connect the "aux returns to master" channel 2 to the quadraverbs output I should get the desired effect if the aux pot and the aux level are set to unity, correct? I hear the guitar coming out of my monitors but there is no effect of the guitar.

I have Edirol MA-10D monitors and
SoundBlaster Audigy 1 with a fire wire connector on the far side.
It HAS a digital out and its orange color coded and 3.5mm.
I found 6' of coaxial digital audio cable (Koss)
at the local radio shack.
They had one adapter from coax to 3.5mm but it has only 1 line across.

:confused:
