TASCAM 414 MKII

[MIRA]

What is the best way to hook up a SP303 to a TASCAM 414 MKII?

Any tips on this multitracks would be appreciated.

just go line out of the sp into the mic/line in on the tascam.

so using a rca to 1/4 jack yeah?

but what if let's say I have a stereo sample I would like to record, then using this technic I will loose the stereo no?

probably, so you get 2 rca to quarter inch cables, and record to tracks one and two in from the left and right rca outs and pan each track on the tascam hard in the direction of the corresponding rca out, so if you got two sets of rca to 1/4 inch cables, just use one rca of each, pretty sure that should work, its how i have to do it on my 4 track, check that manual if you got to

my thought exactly, so two of these should do... correct?

edit: just gave it a try, for some reason I have the impression that when I put both tracks to the exact same volume they kind of cancel each other...

+ i can not hear what I have recorded

(I found the manual not very clear)

[Dr Van Nostrand]

thats why you pan the left 303 out all the way left, and the right 303 out all the way right

i find the tascam quite easy and quite confusing at the same time to be honnest...
another stupid question: is it possible to overwrite a take? coz every time i try to do so the playback keeps playing
