Can one use the OASYS as a mixer?

Post by Pr0 »

I don't have sound moitors, so, I usually hear the OASYS through my headphones. Let's imagine that I need to hear a vocal as well. Can I plug in the vocal (mic), adjust it's input level and mix it with the OASYS? Can I hear them both, through the OASYS?

Yes, you can even take vocals recorded at other studios and import them into the audio tracks and mix them.

I forgot to emphasize that I do not intend to record the vocal, but to listen to it through the OASYS, as I play a sequenced or realtime live song. :-k

yes - no problem - sometimes you will have to adjust = lower the volume of the playback cause voices tend to come thru with lower volume - easiest workaround is making a stereo-bounce of your playback and reduce the volume of the bounce (instead of changing all the volumes of many tracks) while listening/recording your voice
