Am looking at a Yamaha MG12XU mixer which has USB Port and Yamaha bundle Cubase AI entry level DAW software with the mixer. Looking at the Cubase AI it seems it does all the basics that I would need.

Trying to get my head around if this is the way to go? One of the things I am not sure of if I went this path wether I need two seperate PC's, one for BIAB to feed a Yamaha source input and then a PC for the DAW attached to the Yamaha?

I like the flexibility of having channels available to bring other sources into my mixes that the Yamaha or any other mixer you folks may suggests as a better option?

I am good with setting up an amp or powered speakers as monitors and the like. Just would really appreciate the best way to integrate BIAB into a small studio system?

I am retired and happy to spend some dollars on setting up a system that I will use quite often. Appreciate some suggestion and advice on the best way to set up a small studio system without introducing much in the way of compromise.

Cheers,

Ian




Fleetz,


The best thing you could do at this stage is read. You can spend a ton of money on stuff you don't really need.

BIAB/Realband is a self-contained production suite.

You may find that all you really need is an interface and a decent mic. Save your money for plugins! grin
