13 U-CONTROL UCA202 User Manual
behringer.com
To provide a professional recording interface between
mixing console and computer, you can use the UCA202 in
combination with a suitable mixing console that includes
subgroup outputs. This type of setup allows you to
record several signals in the computer at the same time,
to simultaneously play back several takes or playbacks which
have been recorded, and to listen to the whole recording via
loudspeakers (or headphones). Figure 4.1 shows a possible
setup with one UCA202.
Connect the outputs of the subgroup (in this case ALT 3-4
OUT) with the inputs of the UCA202 [6] . You can choose to
connect the outputs [5] of the interface either to the TAPE
INPUT sockets or to your monitor speakers. You can connect
control headphones to the socket [3] of the UCA202 or to
the headphones output of your mixing console. Use the USB
cable supplied with the unit to connect your PC or MAC via
the USB interface.
By routing each channel that you want to record through the
ALT3-4 subgroup, you can now use the input channels of the
mixing console to record different signals (e.g. microphone,
guitar, sound module, etc.) in the computer. If you connect
the OUT jacks of the UCA202 to channel inputs 7/8 (not via
TAPE INPUT), make sure that the signal is not switched
to the subgroup but instead to the main output of your
mixer (MUTE key on the UB1204FX-PRO in channel 7/8 not
pressed). Otherwise feedback can occur. Make sure that you
use the SOURCE section on the mixing console to select the
correct monitoring paths (ALT 3-4 and MAIN MIX or ALT 3-4
and TAPE).
If you lead the UCA202 back via a channel input (not TAPE
INPUT), you can also use the aux path in the channel to set
up a monitor mix for live musicians. To do this, use the Aux
Send (e.g. Aux 1) in this channel input. If the musicians
want to hear themselves as well as the playback or previous
recording takes, use the Aux Sends in the recording channels
to mix in the recording signals with the monitor mix.
