Hey,
I'm Adam and I been playing drums for 6-7 years and have recently started to record drum covers for youtube. However, I have only been using a JVC camcorder and as you may have guessed: Sound quality is limited. I really want to start recording drums with mics and running it into my laptop where I can process it before adding the track I played to etc. I need to do this as cheaply as possible but still getting a good sound. I have Cubase 5 and would be looking to run an interface that is compatible. Im currently running windows 7
I have done some research and have decided that i could probably only really afford to run a kick mic, snare mic, and two overheads. I don't have a firewire port on my laptop so i would have to use usb. I believe that only usb 2.0 and 3 can run more than two digital outputs to allow me to EQ mics individually on cubase. I would need to run 4 Digital outputs for 4 mics yes?
What I really need to know is: what mics? what interface or mixer? and good tutorial videos etc. expected prices for these in the UK. any other info you feel I should need.
I apologize for reposting this if as already been a thread but I haven't found any that meet my requirements
