    Just bought a 1202VLZ4 partially due to this video, and I love it. Can't believe what a piece of noisy junk my old Alesis Multimix 8 FX was.

      Noisy junk you say! I've got a Behringer Q802USB and this thing adds serious weird high pitched hum if the gain is turned up past 1 on the dial ☹️ If this Mackie has a clean signal then I'm up for that. Useful video Travis, cheers!

      @@DanChippendaleMusic Been a few months now and I've still had no noise problems with the mackie, the only times I hear noise it's coming from the gear I've plugged in, not added by the mixer. It's very transparent, everything just sounds like what it sounds like. The old Alesis would colour everything with a kind of slightly fuzzy dullness, as well as picking up all kinds of high pitched whines and buzzes. The only thing I regret is I probably should've bought the onyx12 model with built in recording and USB interface, since I'm doing more recording than I planned!

    Your video is the first time I've seen anyone using the Alt 3/4 on the Mackie with a looper. I use my Mackie 1202 with my RC 300 which enables me to send any of its 12 chanels to the RC300. So here's another cool thing... I have my Apollo interface routed into a Chanel on the mixer which allows me to send anything coming from my CPU to the looper. Nice Job!!

    i might be wrong but i think the inserts will send and return the signal using one balanced cable to and from a device such as the RNC compressors which have a balanced line in/out of one port.

    Hey man, awesome setup. Just discovered your work and it’s awesome! Just a quick question. How to you keep your loop in time with let’s say a sequence? No matter how close you are to a perfect loop, it would eventually go a little off time I guess? Can you sync the looper, via midi, to keep a measure or something?

    Hey man have you noticed that the signal coming out of the Mackie Line outs is whisper quiet. Curious how you've gotten around this? Anytime I run it into anything out its well below line level.

    • @travisdumais2538
      @travisdumais2538  4 роки тому

      not too sure actually. are you using balanced or unbalanced cables? maybe that could be the issue? and are you going out through the mains or the alts or the lines?

    Ah, so insert bypasses all the other mixer functions? That finally makes sense, thank you! 'insert' is an odd name for something that is actually an output! (Loved your dancing cameo)
    Also, are you using the OG keyboard to play the XD? If so, do you stack notes from the two, or simply turn down the volume of one, and up the volume of the other?

    • @travisdumais2538
      @travisdumais2538  4 роки тому

      Yeah! It is a weird name and yeah I didn’t know that until recently. I do both. Usually i stack the notes tho. ::)

      An insert is also an input and an output at the same time , tip is in and ring is out or vise versa! With an insert cable you can send the signal to an effect module and get it back ! Does that make sense?

    • @PutItAway101
      @PutItAway101 3 роки тому +1

      Think of the "insert" like an FX loop. The trick is that the socket is stereo, if you plug a normal mono cable in, you're just taking the output and sending nothing back in, so the sound disappears from the mixer. If you use a stereo-to-two-mono cable, one of the mono plugs is input and the other is output. You can plug them into an external effect pedal and your signal comes back into the mixer from the effect and the mixer functions as normal on that channel.
