    You will need an audio interface to record. This connects to your Mac with USB or Firewire.

    Get an audio interface with at least 5/6 inputs (line ins) cos you are recording quite a few instruments. You could get an audio interface with less inputs and record 1/2 instruments at a time though. You don't have to record them all at once. Some good brands that make audio interfaces.are M Audio, Focusrite, Apogee. Have a look around for one that suits best.
