I wanted the see if you have tutorials on using microphones with recording an amplifier I’m using a m57 via xlr to my itwo and I did record but I didn’t see sound waves as I recorded but I did see my signal and it did make a wave file I’m also interested in using 2 microphones but other than a short description in the manual I don’t see any how to use 2 mic tutorials please advise

Thanks James

Sounds like you need some help with your hardware.

This page may help:

Be sure to scroll down to the section where it shows you how to configure your hardware inputs and outputs.

If you don't see your second AudioBox input, it may be because you haven't added it to your Song's configuration.

Adding a second, third or fourth microphone is not much different than when you set up your first.

microphone -> mike cable -> audio interface

Audio Interface channel configured in software settings

New track configured to record from new channel
