    recording live drums

    my monthly routine does suck. I can't argue that. but it's what I have to deal with. I did read it fully. and I understand what your method is. but yeah. like I said. 1100 USD minimum is what we're looking at for 3 songs with all the needed steps.

    recording live drums

    Good audio interface!

    Motu interfaces are solid man. We just released our new 896mk3 Hybrid. Im pretty stoked on it. But that's a bit out of your budget. I'd recommend the 8pre for your budget.
