Hey, I see that most people posting here have succesfully laid down more than 1 track, unlike myself. I recently bought AA1.5 and I'm now considering my options to start up recording.
I'm in a 4 piece band, guitar, bass, vocal, drummer, pretty basic, and we want to start doing stuff. We have all of our amps, drums, and vocals mic'ed.
I have been told I will probably want a mic preamp, but I don't know what the purpose would be when I have a mixer. The mixer is a Crate PX900DLX http://www.crateproaudio.com/products/box_mixers/PX900DLX.html . I have 8 mics total that I am ample to plug in there, leaving me with 1 open spot.
People have said get a digital multi track, then into your computer via firewire / usb. Some have said go from the mixer into a nice multitrack soundcard (ex.- E-MU product, etc.). My current soundcard is a Soundblaster Audigy Platinum.
I'll be honest and say I'm completely clueless with what I should do, so I'm asking around what people do that actually get this to work.
Also, I would like to know whats the minimum I could purchase / do to start recording ASAP with AA1.5.
All info greatly appreicated! Cheers!
