Good Stuff C10,
I usually have the whole kit miked up and a local mixing board that I built myself, feeding the "Snake" that feeds the main mixing board.
I might have a look at that Reaper thing, if it makes our life easier, I'm all for it.
I remember when I was back in High School, playing in the school band, they tried recording the sound from us playing during a practice with one of them mono-aural tape recorders, that were big in the 70's and 80's.
There was a problem with the snare drum being out of time with the rest of the band.
I tried to explain that it was caused by the sound coming out of the bottom of the drum and the electret mike on the recorder being too far away from the drum set.
Oh well, it was a good experience.
