OK, I'm thinking of setting up a DAW in my project studio. Now I have a basic idea of the gear I need (mixer, computer, good soundcard, etc) but one thing that is confusing me is how you go about mixing a song (as in a full band, not tinkering around on a guitar) in a digital enviroment...
Now, what I'm thinking is that you have to mix at the board before you send it to the computer, but I'm hearing you should record flat and than mix down afterwards. If you only have a 2 input soundcard, is this possible? I mean, don't you send stereo tracks to the computer during recording?
I know you can mix in the computer using software if you have a multi-input (like 8) soundcard. Is it possible to mix tracks at the computer if you only have a 2 input card?
Sorry if I'm rambling a bit :)
