Hi, trying to route a few external synths thru the Tascam into the Force so I can use the force's FX, but can't figure out the settings for the life of me. Only videos I can find on this are for the MPC, so the options don't match up. Can anyone help on what I'm doing incorrectly? Setup is as below:

-Force connected to Tascam via USB cable, set to channels 9/10. Other gear connected to USB hub, plugged into USB port on Force
-Typhon plugged into mixer channel 7/8. Trying to route thru output channel 3/4
-SE-02 audio plugged into mixer channel 6, trying to route back thru output 2

I don't have a Tascam 12, so I can't quite follow along.

However, I think that we first need to establish: is the Tascame giving you all its inputs virtually over USB to route within the Force?

Got it working finally! Some AFL/PFL setting was selected & turning that off worked! Now to get rid of the audio glitch and buzzing from the Typhon USB cable :lol:
