Would someone here come to my space and help set up?
I've bought a new console recently and I'm having some trouble figuring out the best most flexible way to get everything working, that I can record to both computer and tape with monitoring options and a minimal amount of moving things around. I feel like it's almost there but not quite. Would anyone in Sydney be willing to give me a hand for a small fee? All the people I know who do this stuff live in Melbourne...

David,
What brand and model of console and how many channels. How many ins/outs for your 'puter and R2R?

Hey Chris
Trident 65, 20 channels (direct outs on each), 8 bus . Echo Audiofire Interface has 12 ins/outs. Tape machine is an Otari MX5050 with 8 channels in/out. Might be upgrading to a 1" machine though with 16ch. But that's a ways away I think.

Patchbays would be the wisest option, it's something I'm playing around with at the moment as I've just re-arranged the studio........my thought is to have a bay for the Fostex sends and returns, the same for the R2R and a third (and maybe fourth) bay for the console ins and outs........add a bunch of patch leads and it may work
I use a 24 channel S/craft with a 16 trk Fostex digital and 16 trk 1" and to date have just swapped things around at the console as required.

Patchbay seems to be the consensus. Might give that a go.
