![]() ![]() When hooking everything up to GB, the input option for each track option only shows two mics from the USB mixer, as does the aggregate configurator. I've seen this is quite an easy thing to do with aggregators etc however as I previously mentioned.because we are using XLR condenser microphones, we are using a mixing desk with a USB interface built in. Parking that for one second, the issue we're having with GarageBand is trying to set up multiple tracks for each microphone. One one of the issues we've had previously is that you cannot record the microphones on independent tracks with Audacity so if someone coughs, for example, you can't edit just the cough, you have to edit the whole thing which makes it difficult. If Audacity was already running when you connected the cable, restart Audacity or choose Transport > Rescan Audio Devices. God knows how we've made it this far but someone, we have! Anyway, we've now upgraded our laptop to a MacBook and want to use GarageBand to record. Connect the USB cable of the turntable, or tapedeck, to the computer, then launch Audacity. Second, you’ll need to use a mixer or audio interface that can handle multiple inputs. First, the quality of the recording will be better if the microphones are the same model. There are a few things you need to keep in mind, though, to get the best results. See this FAQ: Can I record from two microphones (or even two soundcards) at the same time?.We're a six man podcast and to date, we've been using XLR condenser mics, a mixing desk with USB interface built into it and Audacity on a PC laptop. Yes, you can record with 2 USB microphones or more. There are ways to aggregate the two devices into one and have Audacity record the aggregate device, but there is always the risk of the two devices drifting apart over time. See this FAQ: Can I play a track while recording a new one on top of it?. Why do you want to record from both devices at once? You can always lay down the voice first then overdub the guitar track (or whatever). This is completely different from recording from two different devices.Īudacity only records from one device at a time. Steve is describing recording two inputs from the same device. It would have been better to start a new post in the Windows board Windows - Audacity Forum. I tried what you suggested but it only sees one of them at a time. The other is pod hd from line 6 (here is a video of this Pod hd) One of them is a microphone “audio-technical” ![]() I am using Windows 7 with the recent version of Audacity. There are ways to aggregate the two devices into one and have Audacity record the aggregate device, but there is always the risk of the two devices drifting apart over time. This post is dated 2012 but things do change and I need some help. “split astereo track”, etc) within each track with no luck. UPDATE: I messed around with configurations for hours tonight, and I WAS able to record two signals at once, however one would be left channel, one right. I guess, if you can…run me thru the possibility of recording vocals and guitar at once… The other possibility is running voc’s on left channel and guitars on right and then splitting them into mono, which i dunno how to do… I know that to get sound out of both speakers (when only using 1 input) I set it to Mono…So here is the guts of the question: #1: is it possible to bring in two signals at once into audacity, and if so #2: In order to do this, do I click “Stereo” up above where it says “Input Channels”, and then have each input set on “mono”. I want to set up my guitar, and a microphone, so I can sing and play at one time. The Moble Pre is set up thusly: (and you probably already know this, but bare with tme) it has two inputs and two outputs - either 1/4 inch or XLR. If you wish to hear yourself playing/singing live (through the. You will need a pair of headphones for monitoring. With only a standard PC, the best way to record multiple inputs is to record one, then record another over the top. If the 4 channel interface is considerably more expensive, I would default to the s channel. Multichannel recording is possible ONLY if the multiple inputs are presented to Audacity as a single device. I could record the drums with two mics, get a third mic for the guitar amp, direct in the bass, and overdub the vocal later. ![]() So I could either record the drums with 2 mics. I use an M-Audio Moble-Pre as my interface 'tween tthe instruments and Audacity, which I am fallingin love with by the way. I would much prefer at least 2 channels though. I ran thru the FAQ’s and DID find SOME info there on this subject, but not quite specifically th issue i have…wan wondering if you could clarify… I orginally sent this message to user/Audacity guru steve, who asked that i post this HERE…so here you do steve: ![]()
