When you're recording your "live performance of multi-layered of solo 
vocals" from the EDP into the VS-880 the signal output from your EDP is 
analogue. Sampling rate does only matter when connecting devices 
digitally or moving recorded audio files between devices. The 
"mid-range overloaded sound" might be an issue of non compatible 
strengths (I'm no tech wiz either) of the analogue signal. The two 
common standards are +4db and -20db. Just a wild guess... you should do 
a quick check by the manuals.

All the best
