I was looking for a board that acted like an analog board live (in terms of IO) and yet had the abilities to record and had the power to fully process signals without having to buy additional racks of effects. This board delivers all of that and more!Up front though, you need to know that if you want to record audio via FireWire on your laptop, you will very likely need to get one of the recommended FireWire Expresscards that have a TI Chipset even if your computer has built-in FireWire (I ended up getting the Startech EC13942). As soon as I started using that, my audio interface issues went away, and I was able to record multiple tracks like a champ. In addition to the Firewire interface (from which you can both send audio to be recorded or recieve audio from the computer (or do both at the same time to include using the computer for additional processing of a channel if you can keep latency low enough to be tolerable), the 16.4.2 also sends all of the analog direct outs via 2
humbuckers v single coils . . . whats the difference?
i currently play a nice jap strat from the late 80s, and it sounds nice. in fact, i’ve never realy played anything but that guitar. like all standard strats, it has 3 single coils.i saw a real cheap guitar – dean vendetta xm – Yamaha Digital Mixer its less than 100 bucks. but, for that price, i wonder if it’d be worth it just to get a humbucker sound.is there an appreciable difference? waht is it? and what is each sound good for?keep in mind, i’m a hobbyist on a limited budget. i’ll be running through a distortion pedal, a really old digital processor, and some rverb into a yamaha analogue 4 track. i might also run it through an alesis 8 mixer into my computer, or through a fender m80 amplifier with some decent distortion and lovely reverb. i largely play metal, punk, and rock (clean and distorted)
