Ok, so alot of bands/people I've talked to rather much more record with live drums because you know, they're the ones playing, not a computer. And I completely understand that, so eventually I want to get something that has alot of XLR inputs so I can record drums. Right now I've got the presonus firestudio with 8 inputs, I doub't this is enough, because I count: 2x overheads, 1 snare, 1 for each tom (max of 5) 1 for kick, 1 for ride, 1 for hi hat. Though I'm sure I could get away with just 8 inputs by sacrificing the ride and hi-hat and just using them in the OH mic, I'd like to have more control over those 2 cymbals so I can mix them by themselves.
Would 2 presonus firestudios work? Or would my DAW only be able to use one of the presonus' at one time(silly question). If not, what are my options?
