I received my brand spanking new MacBook Pro just a day before the Blueskrieg Blues Night special at 19East – this is a special concert production for us coz of Binky and Lampano Alley in the artist lineup – I’ve always intended to record and video the gig since getting the date confirmed 10 days ago.

Anyway, I trust Mac’s with Pro Tools so much that I went ahead with the live remote recording intent despite limited runtime with the Macbook Pro (a 2.4 Dual Core with 4Gigs of RAM). I recorded 8 tracks from the Midas Legend 3000 board’s direct out – continuous program materials with some takes spanning 10 minutes plus – and the Macbook Pro did not even wink. NOT A SINGLE WINK or INTERRUPT! Now, this will be my passport to taking live music recordings even further – to the trenches baby!

Remote audio recording of the Blueskrieg live music concert at 19East Music Hall in Paranaque, Philippines. That’s a Macbook Pro atop Digidesign 003Rack with The Long Johns performing. Gerry and Mon engineering. Remote audio recording is now one of the standard services offered at Sound Weavers, a top notch recording studio in Makati, Metro Manila, Philippines.

Check out the resulting mixed audio by watching the blues music videos on Youtube.
