I'm just starting to price different setups and I've got a question for everyone:
Would you recomment an affordable digital multitrack recorder (used price under $500) or a digital mixer into laptop with upgraded sound cards? What are the benefits of each? Are there any limitations to either setup?
At most, I'll be recording eight channels at a time ... but that would be very rare.
Any help you can provide will be GREATLY appreciated. (If you can't tell, I'm a little "wet behind the ears" when it comes to this stuff!)
