    Questions about recording live. Mike splitter?

    Thanks for that link. It is about half the price of the 8 channel art unit. Also, I had thought about giving the sound board the isolated output, just like you said, I don't think any one there would be the wiser. The difference if there was any would only show up in the recording sound. By...

    Questions about recording live. Mike splitter?

    I am recording a small blue grass band that uses one mic and one bass pickup and or mic. I have experimented with getting the sound from the sound board and with placing my own mic in front of the band behind the house mic. I can use a zoom r16 and rode nt4 to do this. What about putting my mic...

    best mic setup and selection

    I recently bought a Rode Nt4 and used that to record my sons playing with a bluegrass band. What I wanted was just what you are saying; some stereo presence in the recording. I am limited in how much time I have to set up the mic and it can not be to distracting on the stage. So with the rode I...

    Solid State Drives

    I built a new computer and put a 90 gig ssd drive in for the operating system. Because everything was new I don't have a real good idea how much the ssd improved the performance but I do know I would not go back to the mechanical drive for the operating system. Everything on this new computer is...

If you add all that up it would be over $500. I was always skimping and looking for a cheap way out. I actually bought a couple...

    no reviews on the zoom r16?

    Wish14, Okay, actually I never thought about that but you are right, there are two more mics that would be essentially free to use. Free meaning setup time would be nil. I hate being at the front of the stage as everyone waits on me and for some reason some piece of gear doesn't want to start...

    no reviews on the zoom r16?

    My sons play bluegrass music and so we bought the Zoom R16 and the Rode Nt4 microphone. This was an effort to record them live, and get decent sound. I found that when I went through the sound board to get the sound, it was hit or miss. Sometimes the sound engineer made adjustments that just...

    Review of Rode NT4 microphone

    I did put a video review of the mic up on amazon. When I first tried to post here my posts kept getting blocked, I can't post a url because of the ten post rule for new people. I looked at the H4n real hard and came close to pulling the trigger a couple of times. We finally decided on the Zoom...

    Review of Rode NT4 microphone

    I have been recording my boys playing bluegrass music with kevin pace and the early edition at live performances for five years. I was always striving to get better sound, I've tried getting the sound from the sound board and better camera mics. This time I decided to take a chance and buy a...
