I usually only record guitar stuff, but I'm helping a friend record some vocals.
My current setup: Shure SM58 -> Presonus TubePre -> Profire 610 -> Garageband.
He sings softly and quietly and we can barely get a decent signal unless we crank the volume and gain, etc, to the max, in which case he can finally hear himself through the cans, but there's tons of hiss.
Should we just be using a good condenser mic? When I bought the Presonus I would have thought it would have really help boost things, but it's cranked and still too quiet. Thanks!
