Recording live dj or pas in a club with crowd mics

Sorry if ive posted this in the wrong area, not sure wher i shoulvde put it

Has anybody recorded live dj or pas in a club with crowd mics.

I though about using a mulit track recorder for the job..

recordt straigh from the deks on 2 channels(left right) but then i think most multi tracks only can record 2 tracks so ther is no 3rd track to reoord the crowd noise....

i was wanting to do that then i could mix the crowd in to the deisred level at the points i wanted...

If yav did this before - how did you do it????

you could just record the crowd with a mic and mini disc and then cut and paste it afterwards........

best idea i can think of at the moment bit crap today

you have to get this pretty spot on becaus if ya start getting the signal again from the room then you will get phaze, and thats sounds dogshit :nono:

we've done this a few times at our interface gigs. one of the most successful recordings of todd sines live XTRAK pa. we used 2 minidiscs. one plugged directly to the mixer and the other with a mic.

later dumped them both into cool edit and bounced them together. after a lil bit of editing and level control it sounded great :lol:
