If the Steinberg rep is here: What is the cooperation between the two companies on this gear? I just bought one and like it. Just curious as to what parts are from what company and what is the plan for this cooperation if you know?

My own mic tests. USB vs Audio Interface. Samson Meteor USB vs. Audio Interface and Shure 58. The Shure/AI is much better but the Samson is acceptable for some applications as you mention.

I read that small condenser mics do well for acoustic recording. Just found an AT 2021 at a pawn shop and gave the guy $40 for it. Sounds good so far am going to re-do some tests.

This is an interesting topic for an art major like me. I think the issue here is compounded by the fact that the formula for the color is roughly even for all three primary colors. Roughly 66% Blue, 56% Red, 52% Yellow, 28% Black... (CMYK print color, cyan, magenta, yellow) But it is blue...

I color sampled the photo of the shoes in photoshop in a couple of places and assuming the photo is accurate the shoes are pretty close to neutral gray with a BLUE tint. COlors will also look different to your brain depending what other colors are nearby- you have to isolate them to see the...

I need a replacement for my little bedroom sized Roland 30W cube (5" speaker/pa with a little built in mixer). I play acoustic and sing vocals at the same time. I want to play small rooms and practice with a little more volume ability... the Roland breaks up pretty quickly. I am intermediate...

Shure SM58 vs Samson Meteor USB - examples I just recorded quick samples from my Samson Meteor USB vs a Shure SM58 through a Scarlett 2i2 ...hear for yourself what quality you want- I didnt pay much attention to the sound level normalization so just turn them up so they sound the same volume...

I didn't know I was going to run into so many issues when I started reading about how to go about this... All I wanted to do was play a guitar/sing over a internet sourced streaming backing track and record it (for practice). I learned so far: 1) Windows 7 removed the "stereo mix" (also known...

I have a pretty noisy fan on my computer. Anyone get any low noise fans or put their computer behind a sound deadening box? Curious to see if anyone has tried anything to do anything about a noisy computer fan in their recording room. My dynamic mics don't pic it up but the condenser does. I...

I ran out of reasons to use my computers sound card... I just selected my scarlett 2i2 audio interface as my computers sound card and use it all the time. I do have a mixer but could run my headphones from the scarlett 2i2 if needed... I have to leave my mixer on all the time this way but I...

Here is what I ended up with, working nicely so far.
