Yamaha Commercial Audio
Live Recording with M7CL or PM5D via Dante
Summary:
This guide will show how quick and easy it is to achieve a high quality, live
multi-track recording using a Yamaha digital mixer, and a Personal Computer.
With the right selection of interface cards and software, an elegant solution
can be built using just one cable between mixing system and PC.
Such a system is ideal for use as a virtual sound-check tool, and to create a
concert archive for later mix-down using Steinberg or other professional
Digital Audio Workstation software.
