my church want to do a live recording and i need to find out
1] if it can be done and
2] what i need to do it.
they have G5 with FCP installed - they have 4 digital cameras for the video and they want to sent that feed over and want to send over cleaned up audio from another G5 that has Pro tools installed. Im used to just getting footage and then editing but this is a whole new thing for me.
what hardware would be needed and how would/could this all be set up?

Is this already a switched set-up? Otherwise forget it, there's no way to record 4 cameras on a single FCP workstation.
