I'd do whatever it takes to own a great sounding guitar amp before I moved forward with anything else. Then get yourself a "decent" but fairly inexpensive mic ($500 or so) and mic pre and upgrade them over the years whenever you can afford it. DI guitar tone is cool. But there's nothing like a...

The best way to record that is to tell him to take the front head off or cut a hole in it. Period.

Do yourself a favor... unless you want your lead vocals to sound dated and/or distant, don't use any reverb at all on your lead vocal track. Reverb works great on background vox but is best avoided on a lead vox track in most situations - especially if you lack experience recording & mixing...

Your best bet would probably be to re-record the tracks with better placement on the overheads if possible... If you can't do that try Daisy's suggestion. Good luck.

woah That was weird!

Adobe Audition isn''t bad software, but it's not even in the same league as Cubase.

Yes your signal quality is dependant on your mic pre. Heavily.

I defrag my box once a week (probably too often) and I've never had any problems from doing it, but this is a good question though because I never even considered that there could be consequences.

cool then I'm all set... I have a Grace Design 101 and a yamaha MG12/4. Thanks!

If I buy the RME desktop: http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/Desktop/ and the RME multiface am I all set to record on my pc or do I still need to buy converters? RME is a bit confusing to me.. thanks.
