I've been asked to bring my recording gear on a trip next weekend, but my Studio One environment is not so portable. I'll already be taking my Yamaha MOXF8 and a couple of guitars. How can I record remotely and then merge everything into Studio One when I return home?

First off we need to know what type of interface you plan on using remotely. Is there a digital mixer that can be used as an interface? You will need a recording interface that can give you the number of channels you want to record (if you want individual channels) or just a two channel interface that can record the mix in stereo. Once you give us this information, we can give you better advise. Oh it would also be helpful to know what type of computer you wish to record to.

Note that there are some mixers that can record directly to SD card or USB.

The one I use (Behringer XR18) is both an interface and a digital mixer. Just that and a laptop and I am set.
There are even ways to record using something like a raspberry PI,

That reminds me. I have a AudioBox USB 96 I could use for this. Thanks.

OK, so 2 inputs...This will probably limit you to the stereo mix from the mixer. What mixer do you plan to use? You can take an output from the mixer.

We don't have a plan for a mixer (unless something's suggested). It'll just be that interface, microphone, guitar and keys.

If you are using your Behringer XENYX1202FX, you can use the Control Room Outs to the input of the AudioBox USB 96.
I would suggest trying it out first. Put a signal through the mixer, set up your audiobox in Studio One. Cerate new Song, Add Audio Track (Stereo Track). Arm the tracks for recording and see if you are getting a good signal. Use the Control Room/Phones to adjust. Make sure you don't overdrive the audiobox inputs.

Once you get it to work in test. Set up at the gig the same way and verify the signal is not overdriving the inputs...You should be good to go.

You said you have three inputs microphone, guitar and keys. Your interface only has two. You will need some sort of mixer...

If you're just recording a stereo mix of what your playing, you'd be about as good to invest in a Zoom H1N recorder. These little things are really good and very useful, portable enough to put in your pocket! They record in 24bit wav and the sound is excellent.

They can also be used as an interface if you want to record directly to a DAW. But recording 24bit to a MicroSD card and uploading them into S1 is just as good and you don't have to take a laptop.

If you want an example of what one of these can do, check out this video. This is just a jam session with some local musicians. Audio was recorded with a Zoom H1N, brought into S1 and EQ'd a bit. Video was done with a gopro. FYI, that's me playing drums :)

Not "studio quality" by any means, but if you're just recording a stereo mix of a live jam, you're not going to get studio quality. This is "ok" quality for minimal equipment, setup, and fuss.

That's good to know. I might snag one. Thanks. Sadly I missed Musician's Friend's Stupid Deal of the Day on this recently where they had it for $79.99.

Oh wow. I need to update my list of gear. I sold the XENYX. Thanks for the heads up about my signature.

brettgowder wroteNo plans for a mixer. Just swapping out gear. Let me know if you have any suggestions for a mixer.

If you're not tracking three or more at a time (with exception), you don't need a mixer. We dont know your tracking scenario but given the short time constraints you will need to monitor with several headphones (unless you had some monitoring in place off of the audio interface), so I'll just throw out depending on the number of tracking, you'll need at least a headphone mixer of 2, or preferably 4 outs (one stereo in would be exceptable). Another headphone would come out of the audio interface if the mixer only has 2. My Rane HC-6 is a six way headphone mixer and has individual levels, balanced, and I wouldn't leave home without it.

If we knew your tracking list arrangement, we could better advise. A small Beringer, Mackie, Yamaha, or Presonus, Tascam mixer with two headphone Jack's would do you well, and kill two birds between recording, and monitoring.

OK, take Jasonpocorus' tip very seriously. You'll really want two to three minimum Mic stands (boom preferred), some working no nonsense mic cables (balanced XLR, or TRS 1/4" phone plugs), extra guitar cables, some gaff tape, at least two condenser mic's (large diaphragm), two dynamic mics, guitar picks, drum sticks (don't ask why), and well, you get the picture. If you're on site searching your pockets for guitar picks, it will not fair well. ;)

Have a place where your computer has little traffic, and dangling chords. (Add tie wraps) A "whoops" is not part of the plan, so minimize it.
I know you know this, but even if you go with a little less, you'll get creative in the process.
Again, run through what you envision the sessions will be. If it's 3 or more playing together, you HAVE to accomodate all 3 with recoding and monitoring. That usually screams either a mixer or 4 channel audio interface with acceptable headphone outs (or monitoring). If you can do the sessions with 2 inputs to your audio interface, think about a headphone mixer so you can collectively listen with others.

Bottom line: Have an awsome time!

P.s Bringing extra guitar strings? (Get that list going).

Nice home build on the Asus z490. Remember though, even as it's a little late, taking a desktop on site, you greatly increase cards, ribbon connections, etc coming loose. If you're going to be doing more mobile sessions, consider a good functional laptop. Could prove huge in reliability. Just sayin'

If you decide to go with the portable recorder, the key to a good recording (as in real estate) is location, location, location.
