Yes the AW16G has only 2 XLR inputs. The pres are not the best although I doubt the pres on any of these type machines are great.

Just cause I have one I'm not going to try to shove one down your throat but I can assure you the AW16G can handle bands quite well and is very portable and rugged. The dijonstock page has a section for members music if you'd like a listen. One more thing, it looks like Musicians Friend is...

Well since you want to be recording bands you're not going to want the units that only record up to 2 tracks at a time. I have a Yamaha AW16G which will record 8 and I like it just fine. There's a few others out there. More opinions are sure to follow.

Go to google and type in "CAD M179" and a host of places selling them for $199 will pop up.

you need to keep the studio room temperature way down. that'll solve that problem

I would just hold onto the money for the time being. What you 'need' will make itself apparent soon enough.

The AW16G does have pre-amps but they are not it's best feature, especially with dynamic mics. Also the AW16G only gives you 2 channels of phantom power.

Sounds like a good start although you might want to consider a Shure SM57 for the cab because it can also double as a vocal mic. You'll probably need a preamp with the Yamaha. Visit here to unlock the mysteries of the AW16G http://forum.dijonstock.com

PeeVee, when you open up a song, any scenes that you might've saved with it are not automatically restored. Once you bring a song up, click on the scene button and recall the scene you want.

Once in awhile you can catch these at GC for $199.

According to the Mark Lewisohn 'Beatles Recording Sessions' book Lennon's vocals on the 3rd(?) verse, 87 seconds into the song was fed through a leslie speaker. Before that point the vocals was just treated with ADT.

The forums at aw16g.com are pretty sluggish these days. Alot of the same people can be seen at http://forum.dijonstock.com/

Well your reputation as a good citizen preceeds you Richie. I'm guessing it's not luck that they want to give you the mics but something you've somewhat earned. I agree, get them appraised, let the family know what we're talking about, and make some sort of donation to a favorite charity of...

Yup, Robbie's just trying to get word out to the yamaha forum members that there is a alternate (temporary?) site.

Hmmmm, do the have the ML-52's also? I might be takin' a ride today.

Everyone's personal needs are unique to themselves. What you need to do is find the differences between the candidates and decide what features are most important to you.

The SM57 on the dynamic side and the B1 on the condenser side. It's hard to go wrong with either one. Whatever one you get first, get the other one 2nd. And yes, you need phantom power with the B1. Good luck. Have fun with it.

The engineer for the Beatles up to and including Rubber Soul was Norman Smith plus don't forget that they double-tracked the vocals alot.

Yeah. Not much more for a pair of SP C4's. hmmmmm

I won't F with you but I will NTK with you. ;)
