Recording Audio using TI as sound card... how?

[Timo]

Scroll through and pick a Program on the Radias that has at least one of the four timbres empty. Let's say we've found a program that has timbre 4 empty.

Press and hold down the "Exit/No" button and then press 4 (from the four Timbre Select buttons) at the same time. This will create a new timbre into the empty space. Release both buttons.

Now select the new timbre slot by pressing the Timbre Select button number 4. The #4 button should now flash.

In the Oscillator 1 section of the fascia, press the downward arrow button until "Audio In" is highlighted by the LED.

On the left, just above the headphone socket and the main volume knob, you should find two gain knobs for the Radias' two audio inputs. The one you need is knob #2.

If you look on the very top of the Radias, where the actual jack outputs are, you should find a small slider that selects between Dynamic Mic, Line-In, and Condensor Mic for input 2. Only the bundled headset/condensor should be used with the condensor input (ordinary condensor mics shouldn't be used here). If you buy a dynamic microphone, you can select DynamicMic and insert it into input #2. Or ifyou want to use your Radias headset, use the Condensor selection and put it into the small 3.5mm jack hole (not the 1/4" one).

So if you turn up Audio In knob 2, you should hear the mic from of your main Radias outputs. But you want it to come out of the individual outputs instead...

Press "Edit/Yes". Make sure "Page" is selected for the 16 keys along the button (look on the left near the bottom, you can toggle between Program/Trigger/Page/Keyboard - you want Page).

Press Key 3 from along the bottom. Keep pressing it until the "OUT" tab on the LCD is shown. Use the left and right Cursor button to highlight the "OutBal" for timbre #4. It will probably say "MainOut". The big white dial now controls the balance between the Main and Individual outputs. Turn the big white dial clockwise until it says IndOut.

Now hook up a cable from the Individual jack output and put it into your TI's input.

No idea about the TI soundcard side of things as I have an Indigo, but that should get you on your way.

The manual should tell you far more...

Awesome info Timo... thanks a million matey. I will try this later tonight... (11yr old daughter has applied for Britains Got Talent believe it or not!!) hence wanting to record voice.

Since moving to Mac a year ago I hadn't updated the synth/music side of my rig, but started this a few weeks ago and I am now getting there slowly. Having a mare of a time with the Yamaha MW-12 mixer though - keep getting an intermittent and loud 'beep' every 20-25 seconds. I have updated the MIDI drivers from the Yamaha site but this still happens. Ho hum...

Just managed to hook up the BOSS DR-880 drum machine to the Mac via USB too and all seems to be working fine there.

RADIAS works fine, as does the TI... (sort of!)

I shall keep plodding on... thanks Timo, you're a star.
