So, I just bought an sm57, and want to know, what kind of cables I will need, I suppose an xlr cable, but do these come in 1/4inch outs? or is it xlr in and out? And if so, then how do I attach it to my computer?
Just to give you all the information, I am going to be recording some simple instruments and stuff for some songs I am making just to fool around with making music, nothing too professional. Currently I have inboard sound but it has the regular 3 holes, plus an extra 2, so I think this might mean I have 3 inputs? Either way, I wouldn't mind upgrading to a new card if it is really nessecary. Could I just get an xlr to 1/4inch and then adapt it to 1/8" and stick it into my mic in?
What exactly do I need? An inboard card? Outboard? I want something very very cheap if possible, like as cheap as possible. I dont want to spend very much, as it doesn't have to be anything amazing.
Help me out please!
