I like the studio project c4s, sennheiser e914, e614.
The rodes are nice but I find them harsh.
The fatheads are excellent.

I'm looking for a preamp for some kids looking to get into recording around here. I have donated some stuff to them but they need a preamp to start working. If anyone has one it would be great.
You can do it yourself for really cheap and easy, but for recording you should record to a different drive. like a fw800 7200rpm 1tb drive. LaCie makes some nice ones.

Don't worry about being clueless. When I say double, I mean play the parts again.
When I saw roll of the highs, I mean roll OFF the highs. There is a knob in amplitube in the eq model that says high. I tend to cut this a little.

What it is saying is, you can use usb to connect directly to your computer and use it with virtual instruments OR use midi to connect it to a sound module. You could do both but you do NOT have to.
