Hey, Do you need that M audio project mix to rerecord things after the first original track ? Could you not just (on pc/mac) create new track, then pick a place and rerecord it there?

Thanks

I don’t know the latency data exactly, but on my MacBook, it seems sufficient to record soft instruments. (I’ll try and record a demo and get you a better answer at some point.) The ProjectMix does allow for zero-latency direct monitoring of inputs, but that would not include effects like reverb. That would have a tad of latency since it’s coming from the software.

I use multisampled vst intruments. They are heavy on the computer. You really need a low latency to play them. I mean, you wanna hear the drum and/or string sound as you press the key. Not a sekond later. I also like hearing a reverb as I track my vocals. But I guess that’s not possible with the projectmix? since you need to monitor before pro tools in order to avoid latency? What is the latency? in milliseconds? Can you monitor afterPT8 with an effect in low latency? like reverb? thnx

Vocal overdubbing …
Vocal overdubbing is a little more complex than an instrument… you didn’t address how the vocalist gets original track in his headphones up until the punch-in point, then switches to monitoring himself live.

Wow, that’s a good …
Wow, that’s a good question. I’ve never had that one before. I would think so. The ProjectMix I/O transfers its control data via MIDI in the HUI format. So, theoretically, you should be able to attach it via Firewire, open Pro Tools, go to Settings, Peripherals, MIDI, and then select HUI as the control type and ProjectMix I/O from the In and Out drop-down lists.
