Title: Relatively urgent newbie question(s): sound board recording to a Mac
Post by: chickenjam on January 21, 2012, 02:33:54 PM
I have certainly appreciated the great work of tapers and have committed myself to getting an audience taping rig this year. I was going to approach this more methodically and do more homework but there's a show tonight where I have good access to the sound board and even some help from the sound guy.

Here is what I've got:

My goal is to capture the show from the sound board and track it out later.

Advice I seek: Ideal settings on Garageband and/or Reaper, any other hints for the best quality recording. Any need to save every so often or is this somewhat automatic.

As I shared, I'm hopping into this feet-first and hoping that I can get some feedback quickly. I will browse the forums and web.

Thanks in advance,

Chris Kofer in NH

Off to the show. Garageband looks easier with which to work. May need help tracking in out after. We do have a taper community around here that is quite helpful as well.
