Recording with Fast Track C600
This chapter covers basic workflows for record-
ing audio and virtual instrument tracks with
your Fast Track C600.
It is assumed that your interface has been prop-
erly installed and connected as described in
Chapter 3, “Fast Track C600 Installation”, and
Chapter 4, “Hardware Connections.”
Recording Audio Tracks
If you have configured the Multi button as de-
scribed in “Configuring the Multi Button (Build-
ing a Macro)” on page 33, you will also be able
to use this functionality when following the
workflows in this chapter.
Furthermore, if you have programmed the
Transport buttons to perform their usual func-
tions as describe in “Configuring the Transport
Buttons” on page 34, you can use them at the
appropriate points in the procedure.
To record an audio track:
1 Make sure the Input Gain knobs are turned all
the way down (counter clockwise), on the top
panel.
2 Use the Input Selector buttons to select the
front or rear inputs based on the type of signal
your are recording:
• If you are recording an electric guitar or
bass, make sure the front input is selected
(the Input Selector switch should be set to
the “In” position) for the input channel
you want to use (either Input 1 or Input 2).
• If you are recording a stereo keyboard on
Inputs 1 and 2, use the Input selector but-
tons to select the rear inputs (the Input Se-
lector switch should be set to the “Out”
position) for both Input 1 and Input 2.
• If you have connected a microphone to In-
put 1 or 2, make sure the rear inputs are se-
lected (i.e. the Input Selector switch is in
the “Out” position).
3 Connect your signal source:
• For electric guitar or bass, plug your guitar
cable into the front panel Input for the
channel you had chosen in step 2.
This chapter covers the general concepts for
recording audio and virtual instrument and
cannot cover and cannot provide specific in-
formation for every music application.
Please refer to your software’s documenta-
tion for information about application spe-
cific operations, such as creating or record
enabling (record arming) a track.
