Alright, this may be a dumb and/or obvious question...
I'm setting up a new iMac 800mhz with a MOTU 828 and my question is, do I need to run vocals, miked amps, drums, and such through a mixer first or can I go directly to the 828 and then to the iMac. If I should not go direct to the 828, will something like a basic Mackie board work (which we use for live performances so it would be a pain to dislodge it from the rest of the PA setup) or would preamps suffice? Thanks in advance. www.theslowtrain.com |

Actually this has all been very helpful. I'll probably be around fairly regularly on this board so at some point I'll report on how it all worked out.
Also, Damann, good point on the keys... Midi will likely be in the cards down the road but it's not neccessary for the next six months or so of projects. Thanks for the comments everyone. |
