recording guitar and vocals at the same time

Regarding the Behringer mixer: I suspect it only streams the Main Mix which would limit your to two simultaneous discrete channels EG- guitar on track 1 and Vocals on Track 2 assuming you PAN one left and the other Right and then pick Left for the feed to mixcraft track1 and Right for mixcraft track2. How do I assign the different inputs to different tracks? I'm guess by the comments that the Mixcraft will prompt me when I arm the track.īut how do I know, before purchase, that Mixcraft will work with the Xenyx? This seems more complicated than it should be. I, also, would like to attempt to record vocal and guitar at the same time and was going to purchase a Behringer Xenyx USB mixer. Yours might not, check the manufacturer web site for specs.Įric, what specs exactly are we to look for? You'll be amazed at how simple multiple track recording is when using MC5's WaveRT Exclusive Mode.Īcoustica Eric wrote:Your interface/mixer must provide multiple inputs to windows in order to record multiple tracks at once. It should have four separate input jacks. Rather than buy ASIO stuff, if you're serious, go with a new computer instead. With their gear, they can't use MC5's WaveRT Exclusive Mode. Most of the people here are old time ASIO, with old time onboard sound cards of the AC97 variety.

He didn't mention it, but all it requires is MC5's WaveRT Exclusive Mode driver on a Win7 computer whose onboard sound card supports WaveRT. I finally figured out how to this by following a suggestion by Acoustica Eric. I don't have any interfaces or USB devices or mixers.

The deal is, the mic and the strat are plugged directly into my computer so is my yamaha psr225 keyboard and my gnx3000. Maybe I'll add shread amp and serious distortion. Point is, my disgusting voice and gross fingerpicken are accurately recorded.

Latency while monitoring incoming audio on my computers speakers? 3ms. Just to check before I go shooting off my mouth, I just recorded my beautiful voice on track one using my sm57, and my electric guitar on track two at the same time.
