come on lets see it, gearporn (studio) pics......
I know its really confusing and I sometimes pull and stretch my cables when I try to clean things up sometimes which can't be to good. I've been changing my setup so much that I haven't setup a concrete way yet. I need a mixing board but I like having everything going into my Tascam FW1804 which gets put into seperate channels in Ableton to record and tweak later. And untill they start making more than 8 channel firewire devices I'm stuckdbolt u should get some snake wraps for those cables or velcro straps, save u sum confusion, i kno that shit gets stressing back there at times.
Later

I should've said I could be wrong but most of the devices I've seen have been 8 channels. CAn you quickly name a few that you recommend I'm going to be in the market soon. I guess this is something I'm interested in MultiMix 16 FWit seems to me, about %50 firewire devices are 16 or more inputs
• Compact, affordable 16-channel analog mixer and Multi-channel FireWire Audio Computer
• 8 high-gain mic/line (XLR and 1/4" balanced) inputs with phantom power, 2 stereo balanced 1/4" line inputs, aux send (can sent to onboard or external effects), stereo aux return
So I guess it has 8 mic/ine inputs and then the 2 stereo inputs where are the others? YEs I could be blind and I'm not seeing it, so don't be to hard on me.
So it can basically have 16 mono channels? That's what Im looking! I'm not counting any ADAT channels nor digital channels.
Nice setup, interesting mix of equipment.lerky wrote:...

We're out but we'll get more soon, or you can order it and you'll have it in 10 days or so.
I never used to do this kind of thing, but what the hell. It'll be crass commercialism from here on in

That Alesis is lacking digital I/O and midi. I don't know if you're replacing the Tascam or if you are buying this in addition to your Tascam. The FW1804 has ADAT in and out, so you could buy a lightpipe expander and you'd have 8 more channels of XLR preamped mic/line inputs.dbolt wrote:I read more yes it has 8 mono and 4 stereo channels thats great.So I guess it has 8 mic/ine inputs and then the 2 stereo inputs where are the others?

The question is if you are going to need the things on the MultiMix that you're paying for. Are you going to need that onboard FX processor? Do you need EQ on every channel? I think this is a decent product if someone wants an inexpensive mixing board that can double as a computer interface for audio. But it lacks digital connectivity. But it's always nice having the visual presence of a mixing board in the studio...
I like your set-up. You could make some crazy noise in there!
I really need to invest in a modular rig @ some point....
