I have a pretty specific project studio in mind for 2010. I wanted to get some advice so I have written a fairly detailed description of what I want to accomplish. I appreciate anyone who takes the time to read this very long post and respond to it…. The studio will be recording mostly blues...

I am thinking of upgrading my acoustic recording capabilites. I currently use 1) MXL 603? Small Condensor for the guitar 2) SP B1 or MXL Condensor for vocals. (even an SM57 sometimes) I record into M-Audio Firewire 410 or Line 6 Toneport Into Guitar Tracks Pro (and maybe Sonar 6 if I buy...

I need to get one of these so I gan use one of my shockmounts on a mic stand. I searched the web and could not find anything except for micguys.com. I am a little nervous about giving my cc info to small, random web sites. I tried 2 local music stores and neither had them.

I set up my laptop with the M-Audio Firewire 410 through a Pair of BX5 monitors. One thing I want to do, is be able to use the monitors as speakers for playing/practicing with CD's (when I am not recording). I suppose I could just run the headphone out of my PC into the monitors but I like do...

I have a PS-02 that I love for capturing ideas. I just put a laptop in my guitar area and decided to load up Cakewalk guitar tracks 2.0. I really wanted to use a smartcard reader and dump the PS-02 files to my hard drive for storage. Well of course I started reading about gear and thought I...
