I think I am going to go with the MR8 because it will be a great digital interface with me. I also WILL use the computer for Editing purposes, but I like the external consoles a bit more. The portability is also a great touch. So I probably won't buy the soundcard, and get the MR8, and then...
Is there any point to purchasing the Fostex MR-8 8 Track Digital Recorder, and then much later on getting a Soundcraft M12??? Someone is telling me it would be a waste to buy a recorder. Is this an issue of preferences, because personally I will use the computer, but I prefer external...
So are you saying there is no purpose for using the Fostex MR-8 and the Soundcraft M12 together??? Let's say I recorded something. Couldn't I mix it with the Soundcraft, and then put it on the computer??
I have NOT abandoned on the MR-8. I think that after I get the MR-8 and some decent mics, I will save up and learn to use my equipment well. Read books, and memorize those user manuals! I am also going to be taking some MIW Workshop's and Classes to help me become more knowledgeable. After I...
Okay, I have taken those pictures on the first reply of this thread into consideration. Scroll up and click on the link!! Anyways, since my two walls that I am making need to be transportable, because I am going to move them out of the way when not being used, I am thinking of using that idea...
Thanks a lot for the research! I was told that the Soundcraft M12 is a good buy. Since, I am just starting to record people I won't be recording a full band for a few months now. Do you know anything about the Soundcraft M12?? Are there any other ways I can get Phatom Power until I can get...
I am going to be recording mainly: Guitar, Vocals, Drums and any other instrument I can get my hands on! I am going to be using a Fostex MR-8 8 Track Digital Recorder with ProTools, so would a sound card still be necessary?? Well, 4-5 Mics on the Drums, 1 for Vocals, one for Guitar and other...
I don't understand the properties of the external soundcard. Yes I am serious, lol. I don't get the whole idea of the Input/Output and hearing people talking about plugging their amp directly into a soundcard. Is the purpose of a Soundard so you can take things and record them digitally and...
Ah! That gives me an entirely new question. What is a soundcard? What is the purpose of one? What is a decent one for a Mac OSX? Additional Information??
Thanks

Does anyone have any ideas what I should do. I have an area that is 90" by 100" to make into a little recording studio. Since I am not allowed to create anything permanent because of how misplaced it would look next to the laundry area, I thought something that isolated the sound and was...
I seem to have lost the instructions for my DR. BOSS SP-303 Sampler. Does anyone know where I can get extras, or see them possibly in a PDF Format?? WHAT SHOULD I DO??
Alright. I am going to be recording a Classical CD, with someone playing the piano and another person singing. Does anyone have any ideas what kind of equipment I should use? Specific Mics? Any techniques? I think this music is easy, because I don't have to really do anything to it. Just...

Well, I forgot to mention one thing. The studio monitors I already have, have seemed to work extremely well. To my ears, they are some of the best I have heard yet. I have these older ProAc speakers made in England.

Dr. BOSS SP-303 Sampler

iMac
My goal is to set up a small studio, with a little enclosed area, (See my post of Isolation Booth in Studio Building and Display) and I...
I see...
O. Then I guess that solvesall my problems. Then my iMac doesn't use USB 2.0 I thought it did. O, well. Thanks. I WILL buy the Fostex MR-8 now, then.
Okay. I am just about ready to purchase the Fostex MR-8 8 Track Digital Recorder, but I still have a few questions. I have an iMac, and:

What Card Reader would you recommend? I have been searching for one, but I want to make sure it is compatible to my iMac OSX. Any ideas and/or links??
