How inputs with EMU-ASP card?

slappenstien · Dec 14, 2003, 05:12 AM

Hello! I am using my old EMU-APS card, KX drivers with Cubase SX for band practice recording (I have an extra PIII 800 512MB comp with windows 2000 pro).

I was wondering what is the max inputs you can record at once. Right now I only have 5 and I think I can have more. For instance can I use the CD input on the card (if I whipped up a input jack) for an extra in?

Also I can't seem to get the front SPDIF input (coax) and the back SPDIF input (coax) to work at the same time. Is this possible?

My band is metal/rock so I am looking to make this into an 8 (or 6) track at once live wave recorder (2 vocals, 2 guitars, 1 bass and drums that are mixed into one channel).

This is what I have so far:

EMU_APS Ins ------------------------Cubase SX
---------------------------------------------------------
A1 (e-card, the back of comp)---------In3 (Why is the gain soooo low?)
A2 (e-card, the back of comp)---------In4 (Why is the gain soooo low?)

A3 (?) (e-drive, the front left in)-----In11
A4 (?) (e-drive, the front right in)---In12

SPDIF in-------------------------------------In6

Any help would be great!
(sorry for the sloppy post.)
(I do not know what the front e-drive is label as. Hence the ? mark. Is it A7 and A8?)

Hello,
i also have an APS and at first i've got to tell you that you have 8 inputs.
You've got to notice that S/pdifs are stereoinputs at all.That means 2 analog+ 2 digital at the
e-card as well as at the e-drive all at the same time.
The gain is so low because there are no preamps on the e-card and it should be used for line-level.
Actually i have no setup so i can't tell you more about the in/out relations but i will work in a few days on it.
I hope this will help a little.
