*recording equipment is mounted in a durable flight caseLive Recording UseVia the custom mic splitter and snake, a separate mic signal can be routed to the preamps in the
Digimax and
002 units to record up to 18 simultaneous channels of audio into Pro Tools. The levels are completely independent of the front of house console, allowing the front of house engineer to work as usual. A pair of included Audix small diaphragm mics can be added in the venue to capture crowd noise and ambience of the room.
Tracking and Overdub UseBasic tracks or remote overdubs can be achieved with this system. Possibilities include recording basics in a rehearsal room, church choir recordings, overdubbing on existing sessions, etc.
Rates:Gear Rental (24-hour day): $150 includes the gear listed above only. We will hook you up with an engineer and their hourly rates you will need to establish and pay separately. If more microphones, headphones, stands, speakers and such are needed we'll work with you to figure out a rate. Please bring your own hard drive to back up the session data. Neither Jackpot! or the engineer is responsible for archiving a copy of the recording. Please consider that a mixdown will need to occur in order to have a stereo mix.
