Interface?

#2

I just downloaded nTrack 7 and will begin to figure out how to use this as I am new to recording using this kind of software. I now need an interface (I believe) to be able to start recording. Can anyone recommend an inexpensive one to use?

Thanks

Welcome 32Ford,

For guitar/mic, I would recommend a Line 6 interface (UX2 or UX1), gives you guitar/vocal effects (you can purchase other various add-on packs to add to the default package), a place to plug in your guitar/mic (phantom power for the mic should it need it) and AISO drivers for almost lag free recording. Works great with n-Track. It’s what I use. Hold on and wait for more responses because there are many to choose from.

Thanks for the input folks. I’m just looking for something that is very inexpensive just to get my feet wet. I looked at GC’s used gear online and found a few of those Line 6 models. I might just go with one of those to see where it takes me.

32Ford,

Being new to N-Track, you should read a post on setting up your song files and projects before you record that I posted here:

I hope it saves you from some of the learning curve I’ve had to go through learning how to use this program. I would read it all before trying the suggestions I wrote into it.
