Listening to some of the bands I've heard you record, 'living death' would be a more apt way to put it, jeezuz; I hope they are paying you well! I'm with you regarding the avoidance of overkill.

I am just saying... for starting out, KISS

therefore I think I have proven without a doubt great results can be achieved with Gear even cheaper than what you have recommended.

Sure can. I was more worried about the quality control more than anything. Some units arrive DOA. And that would be very frustrating if you just want to start recording right away.

Hell, I think the mix you posted sounds killer, way better than my stuff. But M-Audio gear really isn't that much more expensive and the quality control is much better in my opinion. That's the main reason why I recommended it. ;)

And also the UB802, made his recordings sound kind of thin/harsh in the high frequencies and there was significant noise.

But my experience with the Behringer ECM8000 mics has been very good so far. Except one of them stopped working completely not even a week after purchase. The other 2 are still working.

It's a gamble from my experience.

Incredible... Unbelievable quality... I mean really, Unbelievable

The only equipment this audio passed through was
go with a Behringer Eurorack ub802
Behringer UCA 202 audio interface
a 6 foot RCA cord to connect the two
Download Krystal Audio Engine online free

experts at GC:confused:

here is an unedited track my 12 year old son put down without any editing or eq with just an effects pedal through the mixer.

I don't think that is too bad for a raw track recorded on equipment that cost less than a hundred bucks.

Quote of the night, at least in this forum. Stated a lot, but it's true. It's a matter of forward engineering, not reverse...that will give you the best results.:):)
