    Hello,
    im in a band for few months and we all would like to record our songs. As im using keyboards and my computer, i searched if a USB mixer would be better than recording directly in the mic entry .

    I felt that would be hard to set the mic level entry level because the amp that 2 friends use are hard to set the level output. Thats why a mixer would fit and will link directly into my computer. I was interested by a USB one , which the pirces are quite interesting.

    But i wanted to know if a USB mixer would be detected in Podium and record the whole channels that are used for each instruments , such as input levels, sliders too etc…

    I would guess that a USB mixer would be detected by Windows as a soundcard. Can you provide a link to the product you’re considering?

    Hmm, I could be wrong but I’m pretty sure you’ll actually only get the (stereo) master channel over USB, NOT each individual recording channel with this kind of mixer!

    I think so too. You’ll need to look for USB2 or Firewire devices if you want to record more than 6 channels simultaneously.
