Does anyone know of any hardware digital multitrack recorders that have multiple ins and will let you export stems into separate audio files for working on later in a DAW?
Long story short I’ve been spending months trying to figure out recording issues with my usb audio interface that have been driving me absolutely crazy and basically ruining my hardware recording experiences.
I always experience crackles/glitches and horrible latency interruptions, which not only mess up the sound of my recordings when I want to record my external performances into Ableton, but it also messes up the latency and throws the timing way off. I must have tried 6 different audio interfaces and experienced the exact same issues. Made sure everything was shut off in the background of my computer, and all the other rigmarole every forum was suggesting. Even tried the external hard rive method, (routing audio recordings onto an external drive instead of the main one on the computer to avoid interruptions). I’m absolutely dumbfounded that this is happening on a fairly new high end Imac.
So Instead, I’m just gonna record my audio into an external multi-track device and drop the stems into ableton for editing via sd card.
This should definitely not be happening on a relatively new high end mac. I recommend looking further into troubleshooting the issues before dumping money into a new recording method. Of course you might just prefer the workflow of multitracking with specific hardware but if you’ve got a good Mac it might be a waste. Do you experience crackling and issues when you’re processing audio or just when recording?
recording audio in. I even set the buffer to 512 and higher and it still happens. It’s kinda hard to know who to go to for troubleshooting, because I’m not sure what is causing it. Plus I only find solutions for Windows users. It’s weird because it’s not just crackle noises. My whole latency get waaay delayed. So if Im recording midi my latency is thrown back like 10ms…
