Multi Channel Recording

Hey her is a situation. You need to do an interview with 3-4 people. You have 3 lavs and 1 shotgun to plug in to your mixer. You will connect to your pc/laptop/mac and record double system.

I wonder if it is possible to record multiple channels of audio without having a dedicated 4 track recorder? I am refering to using a laptop as the recorder and lets say a firewire or usb mixer like Alesis, Tascam, etc.? Just curious if this would work for this situation. :)
 
Yep, it works really well with a product called Boom Recorder. BR was designed for multi-track iso production recording, and it works great. I've used it on several projects with great success.

Look in the sticky thread Lessons Learned to see my comments and notes on using it.
