I was looking into solutions to do a semi-pro sort of recording in a more controlled environment than normal taping, but something that maybe could come in handy for taping too, and came across this:
http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/R24/ I know, I know, it's a Zoom product... but it does have some interesting features. 8 mic inputs, plus another 16 line inputs. Mic inputs have phantom. Powered on AAs and thus presumably can be powered by a Tekkeon or whatnot.
Running external pres, etc. into it, I'm wondering if it could be a viable solution for the right circumstances (like installing in a venue or other more fixed-position uses). It doesn't do 96kHz but it will do 24/48, which is fine by me.
Anyoen have any experience with it?
