Here is what is likely to be the first of many posts. I was hoping to get my studio sorted out before I put the electricery together but i need to record something pretty quick, so my kit is in my loft which boils in summer and freezes in winter. After much swearing and haveing to use a tiny table as workstation and recording desk I have given up for the night. However, my progress has been limited but not un eventful. Tonight I have found out the following things.
1. There are many small floorboards in my loft most of which are not nailed down.
2. Swearing at technology makes you feel better.
3. mixing desks have many buttons, most don't do anything.
4. The lead you have is always three inches shorter than you need.
So here is my problem.
I have a Alesis USB16 multimix desk going into my computer.
I am using Cubase LE (quite old ish)
I can get sound to go to the computer and come back to the desk.
However, only channels one and two are registering as left and right on the mix bar.
I am getting sounds from the headphones on all channels. How do I get, say, track 6 on my desk to record as track 6 on track 6 on the computer?
Many thanks
Mike
