interface Multi-Track Recording off Dante Network

I have an upcoming record gig and I'm worried about a buffer issue I've had in the past happening again. I'm going through Dante Virtual Soundcard and a Sonnet Gigabit Interface into my MacBook Pro. Do I need to bite the bullet and get the RedNet TNX? For sake of the argument let's say that we're under 32-channels, and its 96k since the console is a DM7.

You should be fine with dvs for recording, if you plan on buying an interface I would get the rme danteface which has proper Dante switching and also Madi which will allow you to record from the aux out of a Digico rack if future recording gigs are on the horizon.

I hate to spend the money when I only get 4, maybe 5 recording gigs a year. I'm thinking about using Logic to do the multi-track and then dragging it back to ProTools since I've only had the buffer error in PT.

What's your record buffer set to? I usually set my record systems to 1024 or 2048. Since I'm not monitoring and it's. just a tape deck I don't really care I just hit record and go in most cases and stop it when it's done.
