Has anyone used their BR-1600 for live recording in a club setting?
I would be running the house through a 16-channel Mackie 1604-VLZ console and running the direct outs on the console (channels 1-8) directly into the BR-1600.
My main concern is having enough memory on the unit to do a 2.5 – 3 hour show. Keep in mind that I would backup and purge all songs currently on the unit to maximize my available hard drive space.
Also, I am toying with how I should track the band. They’re a rock band with 4 vocals (2 lead and 2 backup), 2 guitars, bass, and drums. Obviously, I’ll have to subgroup some tracks so I can get them all into the BR-1600.
So….what can I expect? Any suggestions? Things to look out for?
Thanks
