In Reply to: Tips for recording live sound??? posted by Balsac on July 30, 2001 at 13:31:26:
Balsac, You have to add some of the "house" sound blended into your recording with some carefully placed mics in a stereo config, because in no way is your recording going to sound the same with a support sound sound system. It is not the minidisk, or the cassette, or use of your FOH EQ. You have to set up seperate subgroups for your recording, and in this include the stereo pair, they go out, and up from the performance area. You take this sound as the base for your recording. Then you must split key sounds to vacant channels, like drums, vocals, bass and other instruments and create a total and seperate mix, you can split from the channel effect send with a patchcord, if you have the channels, if not you may need an extender, to add more channels.
You set up one mix for FOH, and the other mix for recording, if you don't have a seperate room to monitor the mix, use phones for the recording mix, at least it will get you closer, remember to start with the sound of the stereo pair, then fill in the holes with the individual split channels. Also with +4db outs, use a test tone to align the recorders, the cassette should read 0vu along with +4db on the mixer, but the mini disk should read -18db along with +4db on the mixer.
hope this helps,
