I'm considering upgrading my 2 channel interface for something with 4 inputs. I am currently running at 16 bit, so chances are any of these would be a sound upgrade for me. I am considering the delta 44 or the Layla 3G. How big is the sonic difference between these two? (considering the much...
What are the chief differences that you notice (in sound and useability) between the SM7 and smaller hand-held dynamics? Such as, 57's, 58's, Sennheiser 835, etc.
I own a couple of Behringer ecm8000's. And they're not bad. But after researching the MSH-10's, and listening to clips, I am wondering if the MSH mics are sonically superior to the ecm's. Sounds to me like they very well may be. Can someone who's used both post on this please?
I just "won" a pair of 3-way audio centron PA speakers on ebay. I know that they were a St. Louis music brand, and were supposed to be their upper end PA stuff. Anybody ever use their products? Any comments or feedback on sound and general quality? Very little info is available about them on...
Is this a low cost alternative to a stedman, or a cheap piece of junk? Anyone try it? Opinions? Guesses?

I have been using an Aardvark usb device for a few years, and I am very comfortable working with it. (And that comfort is important.) But it only records at 16 bit.
Please tell me some of the benefits that you hear in 24 bit as opposed to 16 bit. Very subtle difference? Or night and day...
Can someone give me a little tutorial on latency, and it's real world ramifications? Zero latency monitoring, etc.? Is this primarily an issue for soft-synths, or for audio also?
I am getting ready to get a new 8 input interface. Probably a Layla 3G. I will be recording audio only, through...
I am very seriously considering this item.
Questions: Anyone successfully using it with an older Pentium 3 computer?
Where would you rate the preamp(s) quality. I currently use a DMP3.
Does it play well with Cakewalk? I am using Guitar...
What are the advantages or disadvantages of an active vs passive direct box for live acoustic guitar? (Guitar has an onboard Fishman preamp.) Also, any recommendations for brands/models that have worked well for you?
I have a friend who runs a small in-home studio, that caters primarily to singer/songwriters. He records mostly acoustic instruments and vocals, but occaisional drums too. As I am on the forums frequently, he has asked me to do some research for him.
Here is what he currently has:
Focusrite...
Anyone using this mic? I used to see it mentioned once in a while, but nothing said about it for a long time.
I went to a friend's studio to track an acoustic guitar part for him, and he was using one of these on the neck, with a KSM27 on the lower bout. The sound was magic. Haven't heard my...
I am considering these 3: PSP easyverb, Sonic Timeworks 4080L, and the Sonitus (Ultrafunk), now available from Cakewalk. I have heard demos of the 4080L and easyverb. The easyverb sounds nearly as good as the 4080L, but is a cpu hog. But it's also half the price. The Sonitus, unfortunately...
Bought a 319 at GC recently. Got home and oops!, no mic clip. And GC can't dig one up. Thought I read a post somewhere that said the MXLV57 mount would work for it, but can't find the post. Anybody know of one that will fit?

I have been using an AT3035 for vocals for a while. What mic choices should I look at for the next step up for a vocal mic. How much needs to be spent to get a good bump up in quality/fidelity from the 3035.

Also, preamp is a DMP3.
