IF the chips are listed on the website, can you point to them pleaase? I don't see it. Plus it takes more than chips, it takes a whole circuit, which I why I'd like to hear testimony...

We have 64 recording tracks, audio time stamped files (LTC, time of day, ...), we can record on internal or external HD.
We recorded more than 100 shows with this setup and never had a single problem.

Thanks Pascal,
I have been looking into Boom recorder, and Metacorder. Just really want a super simple set up. I will not always be the operator. I will have other engineers fill in for me, so I want to make it as simple as a Tascam DA-88 (when working!) Good to hear you can get that kind of track count. Last big show I did had 124 tracks, 2 pro-tool rigs, took up a small office. Hey but I looked really important!
thanks

Ive just used the Joeco Blackbox for two recent sessions, both live, one 80's cover band with 22 inputs and for a choir concert with 4 Earthworks mics. Initial impressions are that this unit is superior to my HD24 in the AD/DA conversion. Stability and ease of use are perfect so far. You can monitor with this unit (and a finger because channel 1 is in your left ear while channel 2 is in the right and so on through 23,24) but I am used to monitoring with a mixer so its fine for me.

+1 for Boom Recorder.

We run it on a Mac Pro in the truck as the backup to ProTools. Knock on wood, it's never even hiccuped, even at 60+ tracks at once. That machine uses an RME madi card for the i/o & records to an internal SATA drive.

The developer stalled a bit when Snow Leopard came out for Mac, but I think they're trying to keep up with a new version shortly.

If only JoeCo would come out with a MADI interface option.

Hi Guys,

I am regularly doing recordings of live concerts with two incoming streams of MADI (56ch) on Nuendo. We need to build a backup machine for this. Does anyone know if Boom Recorder or Metacorder can cope with over 64 channels? I want a foolproof backup possibly on a Mac Pro with the SSL 128 MADI card.

Best

Maybe it's time to start a new thread...

[loujudson]

New thread for the new subject would be good. You can look up the specs for Boom recorder online...

says 64 channels. Use two Mac Pros?
