Soundcraft Si Multi Digital Card User Guide  1013

LIVE RECORDING WITH THE MULTI DIGITAL CARD

With the Multi Digital card installed in a console, live recording couldn’t be 
simpler! Standard mic/line input sources can be recorded through the Si Series 
console via the multi-digital card to a DAW or similar. This simple yet powerful 
solution is suitable for recording live gigs; but is equally at home in the studio.

To record audio into the Mac or PC you will require a Digital Audio Workstation 
(DAW). Any DAWs that allow use of third-party audio drivers like Pro Tools, Logic, 
Cubase, Nuendo can be used. These full-featured tools will handle all the 
demands of live multi-track recording, becoming the hub for all of the recording 
activities. 

NOTE: The PC or Mac hosting the DAW requires adequate hard disk space, 
RAM and processing power to ensure reliable operation; see the specification 
requirements for your chosen DAW package.

 

The audio to be recorded is typically sent via the ‘direct outputs’ on the source 
channels, for example:

Channel 1-32 on the console to... Direct out ‘digital output 1-32’ to... DAW 
channels 1-32 as illustrated in the table below.
