Hello all,

I'd like to buy a brand new set up in order to record live shows as multitracks.
I'd like to know if some of you have ever done this kind of things.

I'd like to get a powerbook G4 1,5 Khz 15" + Motu Traveller (is this sound card great???).
I might need to record 8-16 tracks, for over 1H30.

What kind of gear/softwares do ya use?

Please, let me know.

Thanks.

barnee,

I would not go for a SW based live recording setup at all, use a suitable hardware multitracker instead.

The worst thing which can happen is a power failure or a SW crash during the show.
Everything recorded so far will be lost!

I use the Alesis HD24 for recording live shows. Records up to 24 Tracks, on powerfailure everithing remains on the disk, when power is back, boots in 5sec.

For editing and mixdown you can use your favorite SW. Get the files from the recorder via firewire, put it into your project and mix it!

cheers, quark
