I have been doing a lot of research trying to learn more about recording my gospel group using a computer. I will need to record 4 tracks simultaneously if possible. I have learned quite a bit about recording directly into the computer using my pa equipment and a Delta 44 soundcard. But I was also wondering exactly what using a digital multi-track recorder and dumping into my computer for mastering and burning to CD involved.
I know that a digital multi-track is quite a bit more expensive than just buying a Delta 44 and the 44 has four ins where the 4 tracks go directly into the computer. Most of the less expensive digital 4 tracks that I have looked at only have 2 outs (that I am guessing would go into my computer?). In other words I would only be able to record two tracks at a time. In addition to the questions above there are a few more:
1. What kind of sound card would I need to use a digital multi-track?
2. Is there some other way using a multi-track with two outs to record 4 tracks simultaneously?
