Hello, I’ve tried posting this on Reddit but it keeps getting removed, I hope it’s okay to ask this in here, I’m sorry if it’s not!
So I’m going to be in rehab for 3 months, and to keep me going I am planning to record an album/collection (just acoustic guitar and vocals) of my songs on to a Tascam MF-P01 which I am going to buy. I like being hands on and don’t have a laptop or anything so I think it’s a good idea and I’m excited to get started, but I have 2 simple questions which I haven’t been able to find clear (for a newbie) answers for.
1. What mic can I use for this? I just need to record acoustic guitar and vocals with it, and I guess I need some kind of adapter to make it go in to the line in input on the unit.
2. Do I need a preamp for the mic? Is there anything else I need?
I think that’s all I need to know, my plan is to get my songs down on there and then hand the tape to my friend so he can put it on a computer and have it ready for me when I come out.
Thanks for reading and again I apologise if I can’t ask something like this, I’m finding the rules of posting things online a bit baffling.
P.S. I am on a budget, I don’t have much money but I’m willing to spend a bit on this as I think it’s really going to help me through this weird and difficult time.
