i use the mpc mostly when i record--but every once in a while i will use
the drums from the mpc and sounds from my roland phanton x8 or the triton. is there anyway u can track the sounds out of the keyboards in protools with out having to play the song nine or ten times. thanks :x

You number of outputs on your keyboards verses the number of tracks you have recorded in a song on that same keyboard directly affect your tracking to protools.

ie, my triton extreme has 4 indiv out and 2 stereo out. that's 6.
I have a digi001 (8ins to pc) and I use vegas multitrack software.

I can record 6 tracks in 1 recording session str8 into vegas.
If my song has all 16 tracks recorded I'm just going to have to live with that and have more recording sessions until I record all the tracks of my song right?

I'll have to record the song 3 times and then once more for the remaining tracks, right? There's no way around that one.

Especially if your keyboard only has a stereo out, you will just need to keep on doing what you are doing until you finish tracking it out on protools.
