I am learning but have one question that keeps coming up. If you are using a external digital multi-track recorder that has only 2 inputs (I haven't seen many that are under $1000 that have more, maybe I just haven't looked enough) how do you record 4 tracks simultaneously?

Would this be a way to work around installing a new soundcard? It is a USB DAW controller. I might have a compadabilty issue with my computer and soundcard I was going to use for recording and was looking for a way around it. Using this product would I still have to have a special soundcard?

My gospel group is in the market to upgrade our mics. We currently use Shure SM58s. I will also be using the same mics for recording (we don't have the money to buy separate mics for stage and studio). What is a good choice that is not over $250 a piece?

I need some ideas about some inexpensive monitors. I did a search about them and someone commented on some speakers that they had that were not really monitors per say but they were great for getting a recording that sounded great on anything. Monitors are the one thing that I just don't...

I have been doing a lot of research trying to learn more about recording my gospel group using a computer. I will need to record 4 tracks simultaneously if possible. I have learned quite a bit about recording directly into the computer using my pa equipment and a Delta 44 soundcard. But I was...

The computer I got came with Windows XP home. Are there any issues with using it in a DAW? I was told by a friend that Windows 2000 pro is the best to use in a DAW.

Got a great deal on a Dell. I hope I didn't mess up my plans to use the computer for a DAW. Maybe you guys can tell me if I can still go ahead with my plans. I have a Delta 44 that I was going to use with the new computer. I know the Dell has a PCI slot open for it but don't know what kind of...

In the past when we went to studios to record I had a hard time singing with headphones on. I tried taking them off of one ear but then I couldn't hear the music well. What would be wrong in my home studio, with using floor monitors?

What do you guys think about a Celeron 1.4ghz processor for a DAW. Some people I've talked to say yes, some say no way. What are the most important aspects of a DAW: processor speed, RAM, HD speed? Keep in mind 4 tracks is all I will ever be recording with limited effects.

I am recording 3 vocals and pre-recorded soundtracks. What is the best way to record the vocals. One at a time or together? I don't want to sacrifice the tightness of the harmony and it seems I might if I recorded them separately.

I have decided to build my own computer DAW or have one built. Could anyone give me a list of inexpensive but good components of a new computer (mobo, processor, hard drive, power supply, case, etc.). I have already decided on the M-audio Delta 44 soundcard (unless someone knows one that is just...

Now that I have a good idea what I need ("Computer specs" thread) where do you guys shop for computers at? There is not a good place in my town so I have been web shopping for one. I even thought about a refurb to cut costs. I don't want one of the big brands because they come with a lot of...

Setting up a home studio to record my gospel group. I have picked the soundcard (M- Audio delta 44), but have not purchased a computer yet. The computer will be only for the studio as I have another for internet, work, etc. The system requirements for the delta 44 are P3 500+mhz and 128 SDRAM...
