If you’re trying to record every channel individually, that will get a lot more complicated. If you’re sound board has direct outputs for every channel, it may be doable (though clunky). Does that help? Let me know if you have more questions.

I am using a Mackey 32 channel board an older one, using CDs to record and I am wanting to use a computer to record we have mac computers and use garage band to edit what would you suggest there are only xlr and 1/4 in no USB or FireWire plugs thanks for your time. James

“Strike” is a theatrical term. I’ll let Wikipedia give the definition:
Strike: to remove a set piece or from the stage (“Strike that chair.”) To “strike the show” is to disassemble the entirety of the set, return all equipment to storage and leave the venue as it was before the show was set up. May be used as a noun to refer to the event at which the show is struck.

Good question! Sometimes I forget that I’ve been doing this long enough that all of the industry code language isn’t commonly known. In fact, if you want to increase your knowledge of “professional” stage terms, Wikipedia’s page is pretty solid. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Stagecraft/Terminology/List_of_theatre_terms#S
