Hey everyone,
I have a Tascam 1641 connected to my iBook, and I am recording with Garageband 9. I have my Les Paul connected straight into one of the Tascam's inputs, and then the Tascam is connected via USB to my iBook. With this setup, things sound muddy...not very clear at all. In contrast, if I connect my Les Paul to a practice amp, things sound great. So what is the best way to get some nice sounding recordings? I see all of the time that people are using audio interfaces on their computers to do their recordings, but I have no idea how to get a nice sound doing so.
