Here's what I'm looking to use:
(2) PreSonus FP10's
PreSonus HP60 6 Channel Headphone Amp (may not be pertinent to this)
Mackie 1202-VLZ3 12channel mixer (an older one)
Laptop w/ Nuendo
I'm looking to use this setup when I record next week. I've got some tutorials on how to get separate channels for each player and whatever, even though it isn't really gonna matter since I'm tracking everyone individually. I want to be able to give the drummer a mix he can have a little (and I mean a little) control over by using the small mixer. The issue is that I don't really know what to give him and wanted some input on how to do it.
I could send him the mix that will be recorded, but since I'm tracking with triggers to replace them with later, I'd like to have him hear a touch more than just a bunch of blips that don't sound good. So, I thought if I could send the OH mix to the mixer, the snare mike (cuz I'm using a trig and a mic on the snare for tracking), and then run a kick mic straight to the mixer, then he could have a general mix of what he's supposed to be hearing. On top of that, I can send guitars/whatever from the DAW to the mixer so he can hear what he's tracking to. There are 4 stereo inputs on the mixer, so sending an OH/GTRS/CLICK individual mixes to the mixer shouldn't be a problem.
Is this correct? If so, should I give less/more?
