Tracking w/Mackie and Outboard Pre?

How ya doin? Been a while. Spent the last month in acquisition mode. Anyway back to the Mackie 1604 and tracking.

We had been having a discussion before about the limitations of the Mackie ie. wanting to record cmore sources than viable with 16 channels. So I'm wondering about the outboard pre scenario.

What if?

Newbie question: what is the big deal with outboard prea

Hello all,

Like most here I'd assume, I'm your average bedroom engineer/producer. You know - the one with the massive DAW station, that thinks he's one plugin away from the sound of the big boys, and is only a few more late nights away from releasing the next_big_thing despite the fact that he's got precious little time to hone his craft...
