Hi,

I'm planning to record drums using my PC, Edirol FA-101 audio IF and mixer. Recording will be done using 8 input channels.

Edirol has following inputs:

- 2 x CH with mic preamps
- 2 x CH Line In (adjustable from -10dBu to +4 dBu)
- 4 x Line In (+4 dBu)

My plan is to connect 2 mics directly to Edirol using its mic preamps. Rest 6 mics is planned to be connected to Yamaha analog mixer using its mic preamps. What is the best way to route those 6 mics from Yamaha to Edirol?

All mixer channels have insert (SEND/RETURN) but output level is only 0 dBu (no problem with Edirols adjustable line ins). Is there a point to route signal from mixer inserts to Edirol Line Ins? All advises are very welcome.
