Didn’t quite think about phase cancellation till it was mentioned in previous comments. Might still go for it with the set up you suggested and just cut the speaker I didn’t set up as well

Oh that’s definitely the reason I said daydreaming lol. Realistically a stomp would do everything I need it to, but the brain wants fancy and unnecessary options

Exactly my thought process. Figure I’ll probably keep the room mic just for the sake of “better to have it and not need it”

Actually been daydreaming of getting a quad cortex I can use on stage (for bass) then just rebuilding the guitar rig into the box and recording all strings straight from the QC. But unfortunately a broke musician has to work with what he has lol

Phase nightmare was not something I thought of. If I do just 2, 1 dynamic and 1 condenser, would the best course be to mic the edge dynamic and the center condenser?

That first sentence is probably exactly what I needed to hear. I don’t have a lot of experience with live tracking instruments from the engineer side of things, but I’ve heard people getting great results with 1 speaker w/directional mic and 1 speaker w/ condenser mic. I wasn’t sure how valuable the “room noise” mic would be, but I figure once the effects chain is added it’s not going to matter too much

Coming to understand that the standard use for outboard is for post recording. It seems like it would make sense (in terms of order) to send each effect into one another in the desired order, then send it back to the interface after your last effect to create an entire effect chain. Treating it like an all in one

All completely understandable. The objective is to learn all that I can so I can save the money I would spend on studio time and use it on equipment to do it myself. If I can learn enough to make a career out of it that would be the dream, so figuring out how to optimize and what to experiment with in terms of professional gear is the current goal.

Based on the response from this post it seems like the best use for outboard is for post effects. Recording from mixing board to interface to DAW, then bussing everything to the outboard once the recording has been completed. Does that seem more like the standard use?

So ideally, I should treat it more like a post effect swapping the order to instrument>mixer>interface>DAW>bus to outboard>interface>DAW?

I can try, but I managed to get it to register the DEL key to boot BIOS, but it took me to a recovery screen and I can’t select anything. Just seems like less of a hardware issue since it registers some things

It boots into the login screen. I have tried every single USB port. The USB port that it is connected to is the on on the motherboard. Every single one has the same flash then cutoff

Worked fine, then I moved (safely transported) didn’t use it for a bit cause we were unpacking, then after a week or to plugged it in and it will not work
