This setup is expensive but the rotating system of drives means we don't have to worry about people running out of HDD space on thier computer or not having a thumb drive big enough to transfer all the files.

Once a drive is full, or a major recording session is over, everyone gives thier hard drives to Ingrimmm who swaps them out for empty ones, and pulls all the recordings onto a LaCie 2big Dual Thunderbolt-2 USB 3.0 2-Bay RAID Hard Drive 6TB (9000437U) to consolidate and archive them. To keep track of when/whose recording each file is/was we name them something like Ingrimmm - LEGENDS - YYYYMMDD - 001 so that everything stays organized over time. We each have our own copy of the recording software, and we each have a LaCie Rugged Thunderbolt and USB 3.0 1 TB 9000488 drive that we each save our recordings to. This can actually get pretty complicated so I put it as it's own section - click here. File sizes tend to run heavy - about 2 GB for a 30 minute file - so we have a 20 Mbps upload pipe from Comcast. We upload to YouTube with a minimum quality of 1080p. We found out the hard way that it will just record a solid blank screen.

Also Camtasia Studio could NOT handle MC running in full-screen. So play for one hour, save to avoid crashing from huge file size (which CS didn't like), wait 30 min for Camtasia to finish, rinse and repeat. We used have to wait for upwards of 20-30 min for a one-hour recording to save.

In the past (when Ingrimmm used to record on his PC) we used Camtasia Studio but stopped for two reasons - 1) no one else had a PC so the file formats didn't match and, 2) Camtasia is great but SUPER slow at saving files. We all use Screenflow (MAC) by Telestream. We use the Sabrent Mic/Headphone to USB dongles cuz they look sexy, are well-built, and are friggin perfect. If you have a laptop (like the new Macs) you'll need something to convert the Mic and Headphone lines to something your computer can recognize with some headsets (like the Sennheiser, or even some of the Turtle Beaches). It's way too sensitive if there are other people in the room tho so when there's a group of us we use the Sennheiser Game One (PC) Headphones.

When Ingrimmm is rocking solo he uses the Blue Yeti Pro because it's a phenomenal mic at a (relatively) low cost. We've used a number of headphone/mic combos over the years. This tends to pose a problem when we're recording in the same room if someone doesn't have a mic with noise-cancelling. We all record on Apple Macbook Pros and don't (right now) use any other hardware or interfaces.
