MR8HD Queries

[wy tsi]

Hey all,

I've recently bought an MR8HD and I'm planning to use it for recording. My plan is quite simple:

1. Recrod instruments track-by-track
2. Transfer them to the PC
3. Mix and Master the tracks

I have access to an abandoned studio (i.e. no equipment and just the space). I have the following equipment:

• Spirit 32-Channel Mixer
• Alesis Power Amp
• Alesis Passive Monitors
• The multi-track (MR8HD)
• Mics (4 SM-57s, and a 5-piece Drum Mic Kit)
• The PC
• Tons of cables

In addition, we use the following equipment to play:

• Schector 6-String Electric Guitar
• Line6 POD 2.0
• Roland Guitar Amp
• Yamaha BB-404 Bass Guitar
• Behringer V-Amp Bass
• Ibanez SW65 Bass Amp
• Pearl Drum Kit (Don't know the model #)

We used to record directly on the PC (using a SB Live! 5.1 card) but the sound was muddled.

I know it's asking a bit, but could someone suggest a way of hooking all this up?
