Is anyone using vegas 4d as a mutitrack audio recorder with more than 6 tracks? It seems that the only option is 5.1 Is there anyway to set it up to handle more than 6 tracks at once?
That's what I understood, but I'm having difficulty setting vegas4 up. I have a 4 channel card with asio drivers, but I muist be overlooking something simple because I have difficulty seeing the four inputs. I don't know if it's a problem with the card or me. The manual is a little vague on this subject, and I was hoping someone was doing this on a regular basis and could enlighten me.
The machine I have Delta 66 in is currently lying feet up, but I seem to remember you select input by rightclicking the audio track head. Have you tried that?

Thanks for your replies. I have been able to see the four inputs, but I was trying to have four separate output controls, so that i can have the card outs available separately, rather than mixed down. The only way to do that seems to be to select 5.1 rather than stereo from the file menu under properties (audio). Is that my only choice?
Thanks, ibliss. That was the missing link. After playing around I was able to understand how it works, and I could get two separate outputs to transfer to multi track tape for backup if I wanted, or to a separate hardware mixer.
