Thank you for the comprehensive answer. I fiddled around with it, so bass is in input 1, the backing track is played from my phone and dual jack is plugged in input 2 and 3. Facebook chicks the bass to left channel and backing trac to right. I will try using MMEditect X to see if there's any improvement. I downloaded OBS but it did not improve, as my previous post. I play around with it.

Downloaded OBS, the quality of the audio didn't improve at all. Apparently, Facebook output is in mono so if I record through my Focusrite into Ableton then Facebook,it sounds great through monitoring via Focusrite interface, but when I play it back from Facebook it is in mono, bass in the left channel and backing track in the right channel. I will try You Tube tomorrow.

Thanks for the advice for some reason it's now recorded fine but it was in mono bass was in a left channel and the audio was in the right channel. There was a lot of latency but I found out that I listened to the playback from the Focusrite as well as Facebook at the same time. So now the latency sorted I may download OBS tomorrow and try if the quality improves and record the song in the door then play along as you suggested.

Yes I have. When I say backing track, I'm trying to play a full song and play along in Facebook live streaming.

Hi, it's 18i8 2nd gen, using Ableton live

I have been trying to set up live stream on Facebook, but can't get a bass played and a backing track at the same time. I connected my turntable to Focusrite Scarlett with a mini jack to dual jack cable. Mini jack to turntable and the other end dual jack cable to Focusrite input 1 and input 2. I open live stream on Facebook and set up laptop cam and sound as Focusrite. When I play the turntable and press go live on Facebook, it both plays and records the turntable. When I plug my bass into input 3 on Focusrite, there is no bass sound. The bass only plays and records in input 1. I've tried opening the Ableton DAW and play bass plugged into Focusrite but still can't get music and bass to record at the same time. Is there a simple way to live stream a song and play along with a bass or a guitar? I watched YouTube where broadcasters use third party media plug ins for this purpose.

Your band may end up like this

Voted and happy new year to every one

It could have been initialed T.T.

The number of the Beast/ Beast over Hammersmith 40th anniversary Vynil. I'm disappointed that they replaced Gangland with Total Eclipse, rather than adding the Total Eclipse single to the bundle. Both great songs .....

End result. Earlier this month, I recorded a cover of Message in a Bottle in trash/grindcore style, but could not get the vocals right; gone down with a flu so binned the idea (pardon the pun), still recovering from flu. So instead , decided to cover the Blade Runner 1982 soundtrack the end song that has been used as an intro on Somewhere on Tour in 86 and The Future Past Tour in 2023. I recorded a guitar track through various pedals, into Marshall, then SM57 mic on speaker. Rest of the instruments are various VST, modo bass, Miroslav Philharmonics, syntronik and likes

I like the raw sound and drums sound great

Slayer - South of Heaven

This vynil. Just arrived, American press

When we started a band, they wanted me to play drums as I had always been tapping my fingers to the beat of whatever metal we listened to. In fact I was mimicking the galloping bass finger style. My inspiration was and and to this day is:

Well done to the winner, and thank you whoever gave me a sympathy vote😁

Steady, steady, steady....... voted !

Bump!

Easiest song to learn by ear to cover, you just turn up for the gig, plug in and off you go

My entry for this month. Song title Human T`Error inspired by Terminator movies

John sold.me a pedalboard,great Comms and super fast delivery.thanks

Helloween

Good to know as one of my Fender cable is crackling. They build them so you cannot dismantle the jack, what a shame.

I have never practiced per se. What I mean scales, arpeggios etc. and have no intention, boring and tedious! I play/ learn by ear. For what I do, having fun, suits me, record music for myself , no longer gig. Think I do ok.
