I have upgraded/sold off a part of my home studio. In an effort to conserve space, I have sold my audio mixer, FX processor, compressor module and PC audio interface/synthesiser. I have replaced the equipment with an EDIROL M-16DX digital 16-track mixer which seems ideal for working with Sonar. I’ve owned the new mixer for over a week but not done much recording with it. As with all new gear, there is a honeymoon period where you test it out and try and figure out how to get it to sound like your old equipment! I am having trouble with the levels in the M-16DX at the moment. Anyway, now I can recorded sixteen tracks at once if I wish, so I can have the drum machine running and jam live over the loop, which is a novelty that I’ve missed since moving from a 4-track multitrack recorder to PC recording back in 1997. I could only ever record a single stereo pair at a time. This morning, in about fifteen minutes, I recorded this little thing. It’s nothing serious – just a playful rhythm track for me to test the levels of my new mixer.
