WHat interface/software do I need?

[mindbender]

WHat kind of audio interface and recording software would I need to record up to 8 tracks at once? Here's what I want to do: Record my band live, each instrument plugged into a different input on a multi-input audio interface of some sort. Have each instrument recorded on its own track. After the bandmates have left, edit each instrument to taste, like altering the volume, EQ, or adding effects. How do I do that? I've got a computer with 2.2 GHz processor, 1 gig RAM, 200GB HD, and firewire. I'm looking for something not too expensive :blackeye:

M-Audio has some Firewire boxes I think that will do that.

I just put some new software up. There is one here that seems to do all you want:

Download the trial and give it a whirl!

Will be putting up loads more software soon but some of these mixer softwares are quite expensive.

Thanks, I'll give that a try as soon as I get a good interface. Anybody have any experience with the Lexicon Omega?

The Lexicon stuff doesn't seem to be getting a lot of attention in the community which makes me wonder about it? Just my 2 cents.
