Okay, so I bought a new laptop in hopes of helping out my recording situation. The laptop came with Vista. After some research I found out that US-122 and Vista dont mix. Okay so I fixed that problem, I downgraded my laptop to XP Pro, and I am having the same problems. No matter what audio I...

Okay, i have a Tascam Us122, which has a preamp. Alot of people told me that the Tascam preamp isnt that good. So i got a VTB-1. But talking to someone, who's opinion, I value and respect, tells me I dont really need the VTB-1, cause the tascam will do the same job just as good? Advice?

Should I get a new one? Or will it still work? Its a stedman Pro XL 6 inch. The rust isnt that bad, but its there. I think it was from my last session, some saliva got on it, and after that I didnt record in a while. Link to the pop filter...

okay, I test out my vocals with and without my compressor, and well the distortion is an issue without the compressor, but with the compressor the vocals are flatter. I am confused cause I know someone that has songs on the radio, excellent quality, and he uses the 3630, I got a dbx 266xl. Maybe...

I have the GT 55 and its great, but someone told me that the Shure is ALOT better and its only 100 more.. truth? Will be used for rap vocals. Also wanna throw in the AT 4040, cause I heard good things about that as well.

Well which one is better? Not just in stopping pops, but also in making your voice clearer..

Right now I record directly into my laptop. Someone told me if I get a mutli-track mixer it will improve my quality. They also said it was safer, cause laptops can crash, get viruses and all that. I get the safer thing, but will it really improve my quality?

My current set up is working great for the money I paid, but I cant help but wanna get best stuff lol. What I got now is a VTB-1 preamp, Tascam US-122, DBX 266 compressor.. working with a Groove Tubes GT 55 mic. My question is, would I be getting a significate upgrade if I traded all...

I have a relatively new set-up, but I havent recorded or used it in anyway for a long time. Well today I try to record and the vocals come out like complete shit.. is that normal, or did I somehow screw up my equipment by not using it for that period of time? I paid alot of money for it so I...

Yeah I know speakers are better in the bigger picture but I was wondering for around the same price in the $100-200 range which is better? Really good headphones or low end/decent speakers?

I am getting frustrated with my quality.. I mean it has gotten better with the new equipment I am buying, its still kinda a dissappointment. I tried everything, I tried out so many different set ups, and the one I got sounds the best, but its still kinda blahhhh if you know what I mean. I just...
