Multitracking on iPod Touch 5

Post by JohnnyRambo »

Hi, I would like to know if the app can record 3 tracks (24bit/96kHz) simultaneously, on iPod Touch 5 (with iOS 8.1).

Thanks,
JR

You'll need a hardware interface that has at least 3 tracks available, but yes, multitrack can record up to 16 tracks simultaneously. I just tried an iPod 5th gen, connected with the Lightning to USB adapeter to my trusty Fireface UCX and was able to record 8 stereo tracks at 24bit/96kHz thus utilizing all 8 analog inputs + 8 digital inputs without any dropouts. Full disclosure: This particular device is iOS 7.1 and doesn't have email push enabled, has notifications enabled but no notifications came in while the test was in progress. However I don't think the iOS version will have a major impact on the number tracks.
