hello. this is my first post here after lurking around for a few days. i'm currently upgrading my modest home studio, and have a question:
i'm wondering if there is an advantage from going from-
mic>preamp>mixer>soundcard
as opposed to
mic>preamp>soundcard?
if i am planning on doing the majority of my mixing through software programs, is it unnecessary to add a mixer to the signal chain?
i've heard that adding a mixer will increase sound quality and make it more "fuller". can someone offer their opinion?
