    Word on the street is do not connect Xlr and turn on phantom or it will 🔥 the internal sound card. You need a external audio interface and connect your Xlr mic there and go into preferences on your force and tap audio device and change it to your brand audio interface

      @@marcuselbow I finally got the headset, the $400 one and I was tripping for like 3 hours straight on getting set up. When I realize I could connect my audio interface to my Akai force, then connect the Xlr mic and speakers to the interface. Changed the audio device preference on the force and now your tutorial is making sense to me

    • @gonzinigonz
      @gonzinigonz 2 года назад +3

      Just hot swapping is bad. Make sure phantom is switched OFF before making any connections on the XLR's. Only enable if you need it after. Then do the reverse to unplug, phantom OFF then remove the plug.
      They've made it too easy to accidently switch phantom on with the switch between the XLR's.

    • @Pastapocalypse
      @Pastapocalypse 11 месяцев назад +1

      definitely DO NOT DO THAT WHILE IT IS ON. if you have phantom power on and hook up an XLR if you even short just a little you're gonna nuke the force as you say. but it's okay to use if you turn everything off, hook up things and then turn it all back on again.

    soooo, this is how I could do a live beatbox looping session and then by on/off the pads of my different parts (bassline, beat, voice, etc) jam a whole song - without any stops, like continious sound on? sold! thank you the first vid on looping possibilities further than just record a clip. I finally think I could use the force like a live looper (boss rc-505).
