You will need headphone capability at some point, overdubs, etc.so spring for one and save some headaches, now and later. A submixer for the drums might be useful, too; leaving open tracks for b/g vox, additional instruments, and overdubs.You'll lose mix flexibility but you're going for a live-in-st...

If you're a VST guy Dominion by Digital Fishphones has helped me on occasion control how a bass sits in a mix. It's free and worth a try if that fits in with your recording style. http://www.digitalfishphones.com/main.php?item=2&subItem=4 I've had good luck with their one knob compressor with male v...

A 'take-away' is that they are open to you sending hi-def files for them to convert to the 25...

The good stuff in Hi-Rez
