what kind of computer do you have? So did it end up working ok?

I have the edirol fa-101 and its worked fine for me for quite a long time. It's like the bigger brother of the fa-66... although its not always being recognized by ableton live... still a great interface though.

wait...what is a transformer isolation

can I just use a 1/4" to xlr cable to go into the house board?

so if i am using a DI box with balanced cables... i need a special adapter anyways? Is that what Tyson Violin is referring to?

Excellent... that clears up a lot of things.

I'll def experiment with the dual behringer DI... test out the quality, hopefully try to emulate how a live setup would work instead of finding out when I do play haha.

Thanks a lot everybody, y'all rule.

Thanks, that's some really good advice. What about this? If I took my two main outputs from the fa-101 and sent them into a mixer... and then too the two main outputs of that ... and put into a di box... and then went to the house pa? I mean... Technically, I could send my main outs from my FA-101 s...

edit: roland's website says the FA-101 has "8x8 balanced analog I/O" so I guess I don't need a DI box?

so how about a stereo mixer... like a small behringer one or whatever... then send the main outs to one of these? http://www.behringer.com/EN/Products/DI20.aspx I actually have a DI20 at home that I could use, if its not broken... or could I take the stereo output of my fa-101 and send both 1/4"...

thanks for the reply moonpie... that's definitely some useful information...

so does a DI basically just convert the signal so that it can be outputted as an xlr? How is this helpful? Does it reduce noise?

Hi everybody, I've been crafting songs in my bedroom for quite a while. Now I want to take them live. Right now, I'm concerned about how I hook up my interface to the pa. I have played one show before, and someone else did it for me haha. I'll cut to the chase and list what I'm doing. If you have an...

before, in user 1 i could navigate between devices... like go from one efx rack to another... or was that all in my head?

edit: so its working now haha

I was finding that i couldn't change devices in user mode 1 with 8.2.8... anybody else experiencing this?

Thanks for the themes!

I have to agree Bitwig offers some useful stuff though, but I'll wait for Live 9 (or whatever they're gonna call it) to strike back. i want that th...

I can't help but imagine that this is just a way for live to test out new features without telling us that they are going to do something new. It's...just...so....similar... i think that the bit wig guys just had enough from working on a crippled daw and finaly fullfill teh wishes ableton users hav...
