Hi there. Fist time posting here but you seem very helpful so I figured I would give it a go. O have a TEAC 80-8 8track reel to reel recorder. I have (had) a pretty good idea to hook it up to a mixer for recording. Get a 16 track mixer with direct outs for the first 8 tracks and get 16 rca to 1/2 inch adapters. So I would have the 8 direct outs going individually to each direct in on the reel to reel recorder. Then have the 8 rca outputs running into the mixer on channels 9-16. The only problem is I can only find one 16 channel mixer with 8 outputs to record into the reel to reel and I lost the bid on it. My question is, would this even work and is this my only option? Im honestly a one or two tracks at a time recording type of guy. Maybe 2 for drums. Any advice or help would be appreciated. Thanks!
