Ok, krudler, thanks for that.
That is great, actually, I can do that. As long as it ‘works’ I wouldn’t mind transferring manually to Cubase.
I actually thought I would probably not want to have to think about hitting buttons between takes (I really do try to clear my mind of everything technical while playing/recording), but I think I could hit 3 buttons like you described and do OK. As long as they r not too noisy so I don’t actually have to walk somewhere to push the buttons.
On your Z24, when you do the process you describe, can you hear a backing track while you do your takes/overdubs? Or is there nothing in the headphones except what is being played at the moment?
