Ok, so i'm finally gonna start up a professional recording studio in my area, but I'm having a little bit of trouble figuring out how to hook up my console. I'm using Pro Tools HD3 and Apogee AD/DA converters (32 in, 64 out). I have an SSL 9000 series board and I want to hook it up to the pro tools system, but I can't find ANYONE is this area that has the slightest idea what they are talking about. I know that I could run all the mics into the board, then the board outs into the AD converters, but then how would I mix once the tracks are recorded? Another possibility that I can up with is sending the mics into outboard preamps (I've got a bunch of Avalon and Focusrite preamps), then the preamp outs to the AD converter into pro tools, have pro tools record the mics while simultaneously routing the sound out through the DA converters into the inputs of the SSL, and then the stereo outputs of the SSL go into yet another AD converter connected to ANOTHER computer. Or something... Basically I want to be able to use the mixer to mix the tracks after they have been recorded, but also while they are being recorded, if that makes sense. For lack of a better way of explaining it, I want sound to be going through the board when it's recording and when it's mixing. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
