Greetings to all - I have an old Yamaha PSR-510 that has MIDI capabilities. Because of a recent purchase of a new laptop I also have the following computers sitting around: - a 15" Apple Titanium Powerbook with USB (1.1) and Firewire (400 Mps) capabilities, 1 Ghz, 1 gig ram, and 60 gig HD...

Greetings everyome - Thanks to the excellent advice I have received here, I am embarking on making my first mic cable. It's a 30' cable (running from my recording room to my control room). It will be connecting to a AT 3030. I have decided on using Neutrik gold plated XLR connectors. I'll...

Greetings - Based on advice I have received here as well as information I have read, I have just invested in my first LDC, an AT3035 for $130. I will be using this primarily for vocals, and will be getting a pair of SDCs for acoustic not too far down the road. Anyway, my "studio" is in my...

Greetings - I am starting to build a home project studio based on a Powerbook G4. I have all the musical equipment I need, just none of the recording stuff. I also have a spare G4 desktop unit running at only 400 Mhz that I plan to use as a Midi synth unit or as a separate hard drive to...

Greetings - does anyone have experience with this ebay vendor selling this item? They are advertised as stereo pairs, but does this mean they are "matched?" If so, this seems a whale of a deal... still not sure I need matched mikes anyway given my meager set-up, but its a great deal if so...

Greetings - After lurking here for a few weeks, I am going to the local Sam Ash and GC to try a few mikes. I am interested in a LDC, $100 - $150, to do some solo vocal, acoustic guitar, and acoustic piano recording. Mainly for voice, however, as I envision adding instrument mikes on down the...

Greetings - after reading through many, many posts here and through the FAQs, I have concluded that I need to get a LDC for my first ever mike and foray into home-based computer recording. I will need something that puts some balls and life into my otherwise hollow and character-less voice...

Greetings, I want to set-up a small home recording studio that I can use to record 1-2 tracks at a time using analog, MIDI and possibly SPDIF (Vox Tonelab). I have two computers that I can use for this purpose: 1. A Macintosh G4 desktop running at 400 Mhz, 128 MB RAM, 10 GB HD, 2 USB, 2...

Greetings. Am a multi-year musician just starting my first foray into computer-based recording. I am looking for a minimal set-up that I can use to learn and become familiar with the recording process, with the intent of upgrading down the road if I have the right patience, interest, and...
