My comment on this: went to an Aphex live performance in Leeds about a couple of years ago, and next to the mixing desk there was a DAT machine with a timer ticking up. 3 explanations: 1)This was a bomb ticking to doom 2)It was recording the gig 3)It was playing back the gig Make ya choice. Of course, it was a great gig, and highly irrelevant whether it was pre-recorded or not. I prefer to think it was just Aphex playing back pre-recorded tracks from Pro-Tools. Jeremy.
