Donny...are you syncing your 970 to your computer to record the parts separately, or are you adjusting the mix in the keyboard and recording a stereo mix?

If you are tracking the 970 separately...how are you syncing it to the computer? This is why I feel having multiple outs (stereo out 1, stereo out 2, and drum stereo out) would make multitrack recording so much easier into your daw.

Thanks, good post!

I record each separate part with the S970 thru a Focusrite Scalet 2 Audio interface and also use the S970 as a controller using VST sounds into the Mixcraft 8 Pro DAW multitracking it before recording my lead vocals & harmonies,....
I like to be in total control of all my tracks so I can edit each one with their own FX chain before mastering. Works for me

Are you using Midi Sync...or are you recording them and syncing them up manually in your DAW.

This example is the flying tracks to DAW and syncing up manually. I flew the 970 style over to my DAW and then overdubbed claps and sound effects. All vocals were through the 970 and VH2. All sounds are from the 970 except the cat SFX and Thunder SFX.

Thanks Donny, verb tends to get lost on radio...guess I sometimes over compensate.

Donny, that's one thing I learned in the jingle business. Always get money down...far fewer problems when it comes to delivery.

Don't know if that would work for nursing home gigs...but once they have skin in the game they've shown commitment.

I have to agree with Donny and Fran on Mixcraft 8 Pro. I have been using DAW's since their inception. I initially fell in love with Adobe Audition. Unfortunately Adobe let it die. I searched for a replacement for years. Pro Tools...didn't like, Cubase...clumsy, Sonar...weird, Studio One...not quite, Reaper...No track editing,

I just purchased Mixcraft 8 Pro and so far I'm very impressed. Has the simplicity of Audition and the track editing I love. Along with all the additional features and new sound engine...Acoustica (IMHO) has a winner.
