hi there,
i just got most amazing instrument ever, phatty stage ii !!! now i would like to record the sounds onto my computer. i have logic and ableton softwares, how can i record it? what cables do i need? audio interface or midi interface as well?
many thanks for your help!
cheers,
sylwia
The Little Phatty has midi-over-USB, but not USB sound (it’s not a sound card). Recording requires you to use the audio output jack into a USB mixer if you want digital recording, or into any analog recording equipment. That includes desktops, laptops, netbooks. I don’t know about macbooks but I suppose they have analog input, do they?
ok!! thought so. i have a Firebox audio interface but i dont think its that great? will it affect the sound from my phatty now? will it sound different to how it sounds on the headphones? 
No and no. Or very very slightly if your audio card is absolute trash, but I don’t believe it is nowhere that bad.
The Firebox is fine. Plug the Phatty in, set your levels, and you should be good to go.
ok cool, you guys are great. i never connected a synth though so not sure what cables i need - i assume it’s midi cables? from midi out (phatty) to midi s/dpif in firebox? (photo below)
ok so i plugged the audio in into one of the channels on firebox - is that correct? but the signal doesnt get through when i create a new audio channel in the software… help?
sylwia, napisz prosze, what kind of software do you use? 
This thread is the biggest case of RTFM I have ever seen, lol
And that stands for ? Whatever the case, is only a typical mild one : newbie comes in, ask a legitimate question, get answered, answers back, then something looks fishy (or smells rather). No big deal.
lol what smells fishy? 
as for the RFTM i read the manual but i think the problem is with my interface… nevermind. no need to be nasty.
i am using ableton/logic - either is fine.
So is it recording now?
yes it was one step in the software setup that i missed
Great!
