Midi drum track too quiet to hear properly...

If you're using both hardware and software monitoring then you're getting a double dose, no?

[Peter Widdicombe]

Yeah, you really should be disabling direct monitoring on the 202 since you can't really control it.
This means Waveform controls what you hear, but you WILL be listening to the mix as it would be played back later; including levels of guitar, drums, and anything else you may have layered. Plus reverb or anything else on your tracks.

Oh, and on input - you should be able to disable the "record as a stereo pair" and have 2 independent MONO inputs, so if you do, you can add a Mike and record it on a separate channel within Waveform. Vocals, or comments and swearing B-) You can select input 1 and input 2 on different tracks...

Or, if someone is over, record 2 guitars onto separate tracks at the same time.

If you're using pedals, a Y-jack might also let you record raw guitar and guitar with pedals as a separate track...

Yes, I suppose so.

Some good points there, thanks. I usually double-perform all guitar parts, so don't usually split the input, but yes, splitting the signal (clean vs. processed) can be useful sometimes. I did it recently, with an electro-acoustic guitar.. mic going into one input and guitar pickup going to t'other.
