i am in the market for a rackmounted multitrack to record our mobile church services. i have NO experience with recording, so i have come to you for help. i have looked at the DA line but don't really understand the difference between the 38, 78, and 88. i have also found access to either a 234 or 238. i like the cassette idea but it appears that you are restricted in recording time. our services normally run 1-2 hours and i can't be available to change tapes at a moments notice. am i correct that you can get about 22 minutes on a 234 and 11 minutes on a 238 from a 90 minute cassette? if so, what is the time restrictions on the DA line? what about maintainance? i guess it costs about $600-800 to replace drums on the DA line. are parts available for the 234 and 238?
thanks in advance for your help. i know that newbie questions get old so your patience is appreciated. God bless.
