This may be a better questions for the Computer Recording Forum, but I am a Newbie so...
Let's say I want to record Drums and Bass simultaneously on my DAW (I don't have one yet)
So, I need 4-5 inputs for the Drum mic's and one for the Bass.
Would I be better off with an 5 in and 5 out pre-amp going to a card like the Delta 1010 so that each mic gets a track or should I get a mixer and a card with fewer inputs and run the drum mix to 1 or 2 tracks.
Or...is it the best of both worlds to get a mixer AND an eight input card...
Or... What? I'm trying to figure out what to buy. I do acoustic originals - mostly audio but a little midi.
Thanks,
Pat
