Re: Alesis HD24 Tips and Tricks?It's reasonably plug-and-play. Just remember that you have to arm the tracks you're going to record. The only tricky stuff has to do with pass-through and playback... and it sounds like you're not doing that at all anyway.If your session is going to be very long (2 hours?), be sure to split it into multiple songs. It'll let you record really long stuff, but if your tracks end up longer than 2 GB per track you won't be able to transfer them to the PC. So you want to break before 2 hours to be safe.I'd 2nd the suggestion of getting the Fireport. I tried the FTP method early on, and it worked but took forever. The fireport lets you pull the drive and just grab the data to your PC directly, and it's very fast.
