I got "volunteered" to be head sound man at our new church. After one day it has become obvious we need something more sophisticated for recording and playback of services than a simple cassette deck. So I plan to put a Linux box in the sound room.
Card: I need a sound card that will deliver good quality (similar to say, 128kbps mp3) on recording and playback. It will need to take a stereo input from our 18-channel sound board. Any recommendations?
Just about any linux supported soundcard that's been sold within the past 5 years can do that.
Software: Also, what software you anyone recommend for recording and playback? Any reason I shouldn't just record to mp3?
Unless you really need to have the recording available in real time, i might be less resource intensive to record in WAV format, and then convert to MP3 afterwards. Of course if the box is something really well powered hardware wise, it won't matter much.
