I'm going to be recording a very long live show (5 hours!), and I want to know what the best format to record in is. I was thinking of using my four-track and I'd just keep switching out tapes. I'd like to use as few tapes as possible; is it better to record on longer tapes at double speed or is it better to record on shorter tapes at normal speed?
Or,...should I just rent a DAT recorder? Where can I do this at (what kind of place rents DATs? i'm in chicago...), and if I do rent a DAT, do I need to get tapes or disks or something along with it?
By the way, I'm in charge of this show, so I'm not bootlegging in the audience or something.
Thanks,
