Stuck in the Groove (Got my new interface up & Running)

[cream123]

Bought a tascam us-122 off uOpt on here and finally got it all up and running! Better recording quality plus I can use my MIDI keyboard again! woohoo


here's the first result



all of the drums were triggered from the keyboard
the bass was a Squier through my ampeg minicab head direct line in
the guitars were all my squier affinity strat through the silvertone 1484 and mic'd
Vox were me..


Let me know what you think!

says unavailable - will check back.

but I have to say I'm very impressed with the overall sound and low-latency of my tascam us-144 mkii; I think it's going to be a keeper for a bit. just wish they gave it proper 1/4" outputs.

I was just reuploading, its done now...I'm fine with the RCA since I do my mixing off my home stereo and headphones...otherwise it might have been more of an issue

I like the groove to it. The quality is nice. What recording software do you use?

Thanks, I used reaper on this. There may eventually be some vocals over it (not by me though)

That particular unit is the first and only one I've ever used and so far I am very satisfied. I read a few negative reviews before deciding to purchase it, but you never know what kind of incompatability issues a reviewer might be experiencing. Almost every piece of equiipment I own is smarter than me so it's easy to understand how someone might get overwhelmed.

Edit: I'm having a terrible time trying to record bass guitar. I'm running the bass straight into the interface and into a bass rig is POD Farm. I can't make it sound full and still retain some punchiness.

By the way, Marc, I like what I heard of that track. I'll listen to it (completely) tonight when I have more time.

I'm happy with it as well and short of needing more inputs someday, I don't need foresee switching it up!

For the bass, what compressions settings are you using?
