yo mates :-)

I gonna have some money soon and i want to buy a new soundcard and condenser... so:

Soundcard - top price is 500$, it has to have an external IO (like the firewire cards...) if it's a pci... firewire will be good as well, and i think usb will not...
it has to have an internal mixer! my options(add some if you want):
Motu Ultralite

M Audio Firewire 18/14
http://www.m-audio.com/products/en_us/FireWire1814-main.html

I have a PC, not a mac. so i need something that fits.
an it's strong enaugh...

Condenser Mic - my budjet is 200$, and my best options are probably (add some if you like...):
Studio Projects C1

Rode NT1A
http://www.music123.com/Rode-NT1A-Anniversary-Issue-Microphone-i84341.music
AKG C2000B
http://www.music123.com/AKG-C2000B-W-H-100-shock-mount-i59895.music
Audio Technica AT3035
http://www.music123.com/Audio-Technica-AT3035-Studio-Condenser-Mic-i42395.music

it has to be versatile, for all kind of singing, clean and metal- growls and screams. if it will be good for acoustic guitar too it will be great... but vocals are the first thing on the kist ofcours...

please help me choose the best, or'and tell me what to stay away from...
thanks...! ;)
 
best soundcard for 500 dollars.... try the soundcard forum
best mic for 200 dollars... try the mic forum.
well actually try a search for both because this question has already been asked and answered many many times and it will probably just bother people if you ask something that has already been asked as often as those question

What part of..."try the SPECIFIC forums"...don't you understand Mr. But I'm different than everyone else? Insisting that YOU are an exception indicates you are also an idiot.

Hey man, those are two of the most popular questions asked around here. Just use the search function to avoid catching shit all day long. What's wrong with him is that he has been around here for a long time, like alot of us have, and see's those very questions asked over and over again.
 
i understand, but i dont think i want the same things as everybody.
tell me if i am wrong.

and what the connection between that and being a baby..?
shit...

be nice, people... help and asking question is all the thing about taking part in a forum, you dont HAVE to say a thing you know... it better of not being nice...

He politely told you that you this was NOT the correct forum. If you want answers to questions regarding equipment, then post them THERE!!! For some reason you don't get it...this is the studio BUILDING forum :mad:
And then you INSIST that you are need the answers because you have your OWN specific needs, as if other people don't. THATS why we get pissed.
i understand, but i dont think i want the same things as everybody.

No, you don't understand, YET. It doesn't matter what you need or want. This is NOT the forum for EQUIPMENT questions.

Now, if you have questions regarding building your studio, then by all means post em and we will be delighted to help you. Otherwise...what you see is what you get.

I HAVE ALLREADY OPENED A THREAD IN OTHER FORUMS.
the "i have my own spesific needs" says the budjet, number of i/o are spesific, if i want firewire or pci, it's not the same as everybody.
and i wrote it because he told me to search it on the forum...
and... try not being pissed... i know it's not the forum since the first message it was writen.
 
i know im gonna catch alotta shit for this...but this guy is right....it has been said time and time again that you really dont have to answer the question if it annoys you....hell you dont even have to open up the thread. and to be honest with you...home recording.com has become more of a im annoyed at all the stupid questions forum than a helpful one.....
 
I agree. If you don't want to answer, don't. There is nothing more disheartening than being spoken to like this. I'm only sorry I'm not in a position to help you, dude.
 
it has been said time and time again that you really dont have to answer the question if it annoys you.

Annoy me? He was told he would get MORE answers on the forum that is relative to his questions. This wasn't about annoying anyone. Its about connecting with the people that could help him. So, in that case Mr. Brilliant, why don't you answer him yourself, regardless if this is the building forum. I'm sure you have them, since no one else seems to on THIS forum. :rolleyes:
