Introduction

This section introduces some usage examples of
the device. It is assumed that the audio driver
settings on the DAW software have been properly
configured according to the "Basic Operation"
section in the Getting Started manual. If you have
not configured them yet, refer to the section "Basic
Operation" to complete the configuration.
Recording with the Channel
Strip and REV-X
This section shows how to record a vocal to DAW
software using the built-in Channel Strip and REV-X
on the device. When using Cubase series
programs, it is handy to use the project template.
These project templates include the settings of the
Channel Strip and REV-X. You can start recording
instantly by opening the project template. When
using programs other than the Cubase series, use
the dspMixFx UR824.
NOTE
You cannot use the built-in Channel Strip when the
sample rate is set to 176.4 kHz or 192 kHz. When you
follow the steps in this section, set the sample rate to
96 kHz or less. To select the sample rate of the device,
use the "(device name) Window" (page 8) in the
"Control Panel of the Audio Driver" section in Windows
or Audio MIDI Setup in Mac.
