So I've got a pretty good computer and stuff, and was going to set up a little home studio with my computer being the recording media, but I don't know now. I've always wanted to stay analog, I remember listening to a White Stripes album for the first time, and loving how smooth and warm it was, and they do all their stuff analog. I've recorded digital, and I think it all sounds stale and a little dead in my opinion. What kind of analog recorder should I look into? Should I just get one of those tascam mulitrack recorders? Is there anything better that isn't super expensive? I'd like to be analog, but I don't want the quality to be terrible, you know?
and I know that all those multitrack analog recorders have built-in mixers, but should I get a seprate anyone?
And I used to own a little 4 track, and I remember that if I recorded over a track a lot, there would be lots of pops and cracks.....Is that normal?
And how are reel to reels, how do they turn out? I've heard Tascam 388 is superb, and they look pretty wonderful.
I want to do analog, and I want good sound quality too.
So what are your suggestions?
Thanks!
