David Ennis November 10th, 2005, 09:28 PM That depends on a few things, like WHAT mp3 player and WHAT sound board? Chris Luker November 11th, 2005, 10:21 AM Probably the stero line out (or rec out / tape out) from the board to the line in (or rec in / tape in) of the mp3 recorder. 1/4" plug(s) for the board side to 1/8" stero plug for the mp3 recorder. What mp3 recorder are you using? Dan Farzad November 11th, 2005, 06:00 PM honestly i dont know what mp3 player. On sunday I will go to find something and use it for the event. any recomendations? Dennis Khaye November 11th, 2005, 06:15 PM iRiver iFP-790 or higher, depends on how much you want to spend per MB of space. I bought a Sony Hi-MD recorder (the MZ-M100) and I love the sound the I get from it. The main reason I didn't go with the 790 is because when I'm on location (which I am a lot) there wasn't any place to put the sound once I got it and ran out of room. With the Sony option I just put in a new 1GB disk. Ty Ford November 11th, 2005, 09:32 PM iRiver iFP-790 or higher, depends on how much you want to spend per MB of space.

Sorry I don't know much about them, but I remember someone telling me they were good for recording stuff. http://www.neurosaudio.com Many soundboards have a "tape out" (RCA phono plugs) connection. That's usually a good signal for recording. cables that runs mail RCA phono plugs to a male 3.5mm stereo jack are pretty common. For live events (especially music) I like to run a live camcorder too. If you position it right, the onboard stereo mic of many camcorders create a decent live sound. If you mix it with your audio from the board it won't feel so flat. |
