I am using Logic on my mac mini these days and I have an Alesis Multimix 8 Firewire. The multimix has four XLR inputs. Now when recording in Logic I select the track on the multimix for the track that i have selected. The problem is that when I use up the first four XLR tracks and need a 5th track i use one of the four XLR inputs on the multimix. When I do that the new track (5) is now linked up with one of the first four tracks (whichever input im using) because they are the same channel on the mixer. In Garageband I can make 30 tracks and have them all be input 1 on the multimix. I want to do this with logic. Any ideas?

I am not a Logic user (Cubase SX3), and may be missing out on what you are having trouble with. All you have to do is assign your 5th track to whatever input you are wanting to use, make sure the "arm" button on the 4 tracks you have already recorded is off, you should have input signal coming through and ready to record on the 5th track. You should no longer have an audio signal indicating on the previously recorded 4 track. You can even go as far as disengaging all inputs for the tracks that are completed.

I do it all the time in Cubase SX, using only an 8 I/O Delta 1010 M-Audio, placing sometimes upward to 30-40 audio tracks, plus many Reason midi tracks. Hope this helps -- may not even be close to what you are asking.

Good Luck!!!
