If a band only wants to hear what the gig sounded like then they should bring along a minidisc recorder... Last year we did some stereo recording to minidisc with a C1000 pair at 110 degrees to each other (like ears), the results were pretty good, once we got the hang of it.

The intention with the Sydec is to go much further and actually produce proper live EPs and albums. Sydec Soundscape is a serious bit of kit, not just another PC based recording tool.

I'll produce a basic stereo mix of any gigs where I feel the performance merits a hard copy. If the band like what they hear, then they can hire one of the Marks to remix it properly.
