hi, i have a few questions that are probably easy for you guys to answer.
im pretty much new to any real recording, ive only done little 4 tracks stuff.
but i have a yamaha mg mixer, and some decent mics. so my first questions is: would that set up so far be well enough to get started with adat?
2. how do i hook up my mixer to the adat? im guessing adat will get me stereo sound, but im not sure how to do that. ive seen these chords that have a thing that will fit into the input thats in the middle of the back of the adat, and it has 16 1/8 plugs on the other end, but im not sure if that goes to the mixer or what?
3. can i record for than one track at once? like if i wanted to record a show, and i wanted to have each instrument on a seperate track. or if i could get certain drums on seperate tracks so that after i record a drum track i can go back and change the levels of just the toms, or just the snare.
i hope these questions arent too stupid, im sure they are though. but any help would be greatly appreciated. ive been trying to get some good advice but people keep telling to go daw and they give me a link to some digital software that costs a lot of money, and needs a better system than i got, and they dont really tell me if its able to do anything that i asked. okay i have to watch the sox. thanks, pete
