Hi, I am new here, and also kind of new to recording.
I want to record an album before the end of the year, I have the musical part 80% there, and now I am thinking about the recording process.
Is going to be an early chicago blues album, so those first Chess records are "my goal". I want that the entire recording chain to be analog. So far this is what i have in mind:
Mics (I have few really old, a few old, and a couples new) -> Shure M267 mixer -> Art tube Mp -> Cassette Deck.
A reel to reel would be nice, but is far to expensive to me right now (I live in Chile), so cassette is my next best thing.
I have to question for you guys:
1- What do you think of my aproach / equipment?
2- I know about the Portastudio, but over here those are also expensive, so I am looking for a deck like this:

My idea is to use hi-z output of the Art Tube MP (but sending a low singal) to the the MIC input of this type of decks.
Remember, I am aiming for a lo-fi sound.
Any of you has done something similar? any experience? advices?
I will be keeping this post updated whit the recording process.
Greetings!
