Dear Audacity Experts and Near-Experts –
Please help a newbie.
I was wondering-- does Audacity work with the Alesis MultiMix 8 USB 2.0 or not (to output 1 WAV file per each track)?
This is a link to this MultiMix…
http://www.alesis.com/multimix8usb20
I saw a guy hook this MultiMix to Reaper, and he had real-time on-screen monitoring, and he got a separate WAV for each track.
Can Audacity do that?
Please advise.
I am going to “inherit” one of these MultiMix devices soon for “almost nothing”; so, I want to play how to use it.
Right now, I like Audacity much more that Reaper; so, I am hoping to find a way to make Audacity work with it and get separate WAV files for each.
My goal is to capture live performances from our quartet (k+b+d+g) in digital format, for quick-and-dirty mixing, then output to MP3, for review, analysis, and to serve as a poor-man’s demo so we can get some gigs, etc-- so, in short, I really think that I do not need all the features of Reaper and would be much more comfortable (and efficient) with Audactity, as long as Audacity can provide WAV-per-track output.
(I searched the forums here and found several references to MultiMix questions, but nothing conclusive.)
What do you think? Thoughts? Comments? Hints? Suggestions?
(All help is appreciated.)
Thanks.
