Howdy folks!
I find myself using VV for as much audio as video in the last while. I'm working with a local startup band which my nephew is in, doing their photos and videotaping performances for demos. They're in a local studio now putting together their first demo CD, and will probably use me and my gear w/ Vegas for mastering. To save on studio time, we're considering doing the mixing as well.
Unfortunately my studio isn't built for more than a solo recording - certainly not large enough for recording drums - so I can't suggest that they use my facilities from end to end. They'll have no choice but to lay down the bed and record their tracks at the larger studio.
My question for those who do this is, what method do you prefer for getting individual tracks or mixes from an outside recording studio to your own editing suites? This would be the first time I have to rely on equipment other than my own so I'm not sure of the best practice. The studio near as I can tell uses Protools, and I'll probably ask the engineer to create split mixes of each song and save the separate tracks as aiff or wav files on CD. Any caveats?
Thanks! I value this forum's opinions very highly.
