Hey
What would you bee using if you should record a large music file in
let's say 14-16 tracks ? Next month my band have a live-gig I want to
record, and I am on the brink of letting my old and heavy ADAT tape
machines be left back, and only bring my notebook and my multiface amd
my mic-preamps for recording.
jack_capture:
jack_capture --port system:capture*
Or if you only want to record the 14 first inputs:
jack_capture -c 14 --port system:capture*
Is it stable and secure to record in Ardour in one go
? I could raise
latency since we're not using any kind of live monitoring from the
computer.
Ardour is probably stable and secure enough, but
jack_capture is made only for recording so the
chance of unwanted surprises with jack_capture
might be theoretically smaller. No, seriously,
both of them should work fine, but jack_capture
is simpler to use.
