A. No, but this may depend on how you’re recording and what software you’re using. Some music software has a ‘tape type’ of monitoring, which essentially lets you monitor THROUGH the program. With this setup, you can always leave your Patchbay\/Router H\/W outs set to monitor “WavOut” as the source.<\/p>\n
The ‘Typical Setup’ scenarios that are described in your manual give you a basis from which to develop your own method or style of recording. If you haven’t read them, please do. Here are some other ideas along those lines, similar to Typical Setup #1 but using a multi-channel mixer to handle the Delta Outputs.<\/p>\n
Let’s say you’re doing overdubs, or recording one instrument at a time, and the instrument is plugged into In1 on the Delta. Plug the eight Delta outputs into your mixer. In the Patchbay\/Router page, select “H\/W In 1\/2” in the first column- H\/W Out 1\/2. Set the port within your software to WavOut 3\/4, and set the second Patchbay\/Router column “H\/W Out 3\/4” to WavOut 3\/4. Set the next two columns to WavOut 5\/6 and WavOut 7\/8 respectively.<\/p>\n
With this setup, you’re always monitoring your input from output 1 on the Delta. When you play back from your software, you send it out to WavOut 3\/4, panned hard left. When you record the next track, send it to WavOut 3\/4 panned hard right. The next track, set to WavOut 5\/6, panned hard left, etc. Again, you’re always monitoring the instrument you’re recording at Delta output 1.<\/p>\n
You can apply this same thinking to using the Monitor Mixer as your source for H\/W Out 1\/2 in the Patchbay\/Router page (set the other H\/W outs to their “WavOut” settings like the previous example). Just as in Typical Setup 1, you would raise the faders on the H\/W In 1\/2 and also on WavOut 1\/2, with your music software port set to WavOut 1\/2 (you could raise just the left fader if you’re recording one instrument). Then monitor while you record from out 1.<\/p>\n
When you’re done recording each track, switch the output port in your music software to WavOut 3\/ 4, panned hard left. After recording the next track, set the output port to WavOut 3\/4 panned hard right, and on and on. While recording, you’re monitoring your input at out 1, but also monitoring playback at out 1 until you decide the take is complete. One might see this scenario as more or less advantageous than the previous.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[],"tags":[],"storecat":[],"itemids":[3387],"manufacturers":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\t\n
