Hi Jay,
Let me clarify, the firestation is not a DAW. its just an interface. the show would go on if the DAW crashed, there is no conversion or anything going on between the inputs and outputs of the firestation. in fact the firestation can also be used as a stand alone analogue 8x2 mixer if need be. or a standalone 8 channel a to d or d to a lightpipe converter. its pretty versatile.
anyway the reason i was thinking about setting up this way was purely for simplicities sake. it just seemed logical to me.
i would plug the mics in, set the gain, direct out into the firestation and hit record, and thats it. all done. i can now concentrate on doing foh safe in the knowledge that whatever i do to this signal on the left side of the desk is not gonna mess with my recording.
sorry i've basically repeated myself. do you get what i mean?
