Recording Studio Setup

The heart of my recording setup is the Power Macintosh G4 computer and the Behringer MX 2004A 20 x 4 x 2 mixer. The extra two-channel buss (Alt) of the mixer greatly simplifies and enhances the complete studio wiring system. There are four simultanous inputs to the Mac: left/right digital (S/PDIF) from the output of the Lexicon MPX 100, and left/right analog from the Aux ports on the mixer.
