Re: Recording several mics to separate tracks

Hi Koz and Steve Been a long time I know but finally I have all my mics in place and a Tascam DP 24. Brilliant, in a word! I now have full control of everything. I can load the original music via USB from the PC to the SD card in the DP24. I can then record 8 mics simultaneously which is liveable. I...

Re: Recording several mics to separate tracks

Thanks Koz Up to now I have been recording my entire kit using a Yeti connected by USB to my Toshiba Satellite running Audacity. After experimenting with mic positioning the results have been amazing, really quite good, just not good enough and of course no real control of individual pieces of the k...

Re: Recording several mics to separate tracks

Thanks guys, you are being most helpful and I truly appreciate it. It seems, from the looking around I have done with your direction, that there are (at least) 2 kinds of device I need to look at: 1) Audio interface or 2) Digital Audio Workstation. The Audio Interface seems to be the correct device ...

Re: Recording several mics to separate tracks

Thanks Steve Wow, I thought it would be complicated, if indeed possible, but this is way out of my depth. I was really hoping to learn from someone else's experience as I didn't think I was venturing into uncharted waters. I will do some more research and let you know how it goes. Thanks again Regar...

Re: Recording several mics to separate tracks

Thanks Koz! That is most helpful. Unfortunately 2 mics is not enough for my 10 piece + cymbals and hi hats kit. It looks as though I will have to bite the bullet and go with a more professional setup (not to downplay the capabilities of Audacity in any way which I think is quite brilliant). Thanks a...

Recording several mics to separate tracks

I want to record my drums over pre-recorded music. I have several mics on the kit. I am using Audacity 2.0.3 on a Toshiba Satellite running Windows 7. I obviously need some extra piece of hardware to plug the mics into but I can't understand how the signals are going to be kept separate. I can see h...
