I have been turning the *insane* high quality audio gear I bought for my Video/Voice work into doing double duty and a music recording setup. I really haven't done any music since I started painting but recently have had an urge to get back into it. Here's the gear so far:

Basically, in a fit of rage over not being able to quickly record studio quality audio for my videos I went out and bought the "10 year" setup. I tried a bunch of shit but what ended up working best was: http://www.rme-audio.de/en/products/fireface_ufx-plus.php … http://www.rme-audio.de/en/products/octamic_xtc.php …https://www.tcelectronic.com/Categories/Tcelectronic/Signal-Processors/Compressors-Limiters/FINALIZER-96K/p/P0CJA#googtrans(en|en) …

Now I do *not* recommend buying this stuff. I started with just an RME Babyface and DAW plugins. That worked just fine, except that workflow added about 30-60 minutes of audio processing time *per video* and it wouldn't work at all for live video due to CPU use.

Once I threw in a Rocktron Hush http://www.rocktron.com/hush-ultra.html I was able to get very reliable fully live on-air audio and cut 30-60 minutes out of my workflow per video. I went from 1-3 videos a day to easily 10 a day just doing that. Time is money, so it was worth it.

However, the RME UFX+ was mostly just not being used given its power, so I grabbed the OctaMic so I could connect it to the UFX+ with MADI and now I can do 32 channels of 96K audio like it's nothing. Almost zero CPU usage and easily controlled through software and midi/osc.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm I mean, I basically have enough gear to do full live recordings of just about anything....and I wanted to get back into music....soooooooooo, I took the last few days and wired everything I could into this setup just to see what it can do.

I have a Drumbrute Impact with 6 audio outs, a Headrush pedal board with stereo i/o, a EHX 95000 looper stereo i/o, micrphone to the hush in stereo, finalizer on AES, a total of around 16 channels all at 96k full stereo recorded into Reaper.

Replying to @zedshaw
So you would go this far, but you wouldn't also bother to step it up to 192khz at 32-bits? ;-)

You can do that but then it halves your channels 2 more times. I think it's 16 channels at 128k, then 8 or 12 at 192k and you can't use the MADI interface anymore as it tops out at 96k. Also, my music isn't _that_ good.
