I'll start by saying that I'm very new to this.
I want to record an opera singer with a piano in a church. I want the recording to sound as much like the singer as possible and since the recording will be used as a demo to get work, the recording can't be altered in any way to make the singer sound better than he really is. That being said, is it possible to get a good recording (assuming all equipment is good) using just the mics and a pre-amp going directly to DAT or will I still need a mixer?
Thanks,
Coleridge
