Default Splitting a mic signal to hedge my bets...

I would be more worried about only having one recording device, although
it is at his house and not in a paying studio. But you might want to run a
live mix to a DAT and a couple of tracks in Nuendo as a reference at the same
time. All things being equal, it will sound better than any mix you do later
from the isolated tracks.


I do plan to run a two track to dat as back up. But why would the live mix
necessarily sound better than any subsequent mix? Not sure I follow you here...

Thanks.
