A pair of multipattern LDC's But still you should read that link

I wouldn't touch anything with Dice-2 in it with a ten foot pole. The fastrak pro is a good suggestion, just be sure its one made after they fixed the problem where output was feeding back into the input.

Besides boutique mics, can you name any modern mics that aren't (in some way at least) chinese?

You need to set the track to have the number of "track channels" you want Right click the fader for the track ReaGate is on and note this pic You'll see a drop down for the number of track channels Once you have more than two, you can send other tracks to say, the 3/4 ins If you set the...

Definitely pick the soundcard first, then make the computer match it The best currently (firewire anyhow) in terms of latency and drivers are MOTU and RME. If you know anything about me you know how much I HATE to say there is a two horse race going on, but its a sad fact right now. f you...

Ok, there's still a bit that's hard to get across here. The X amp would be if you wanted to plug the computer output into the guitar preamp input. In this case, theres no point going thru the computer for your sound in the first place, just plug into the guitar preamp. If you are actually...

X amp is for plugging a line level output into a guitar preamp's instrument level input (or the instrument input of the preamp section of a guitar head or combo) In your case, you are already using your DI to soundcard input to Guitar Rig signal chain as a preamp, and only need to use the...

It would be PC, so unable to run logic. i7 2.66ghz, 16 gigs DDR3 RAM, could go higher in cpu and still be under 1k with some dilligent shopping. Most importantly, this has TI firewire, which I'm not sure if apple even offers anymore Its not just about the stock synth sounds, its that logic...

Thats a stupid amount of money to pay for a computer like that. $1000 dollars US, would buy you a far better system If you like cool edit, you will probably not have a very fun time with logic...however if you are planning on doing a lot of MIDI, it excels at that

You have to understand that times are changing in huge ways right now in this business. This is on top of the fact that people are generally making the same wages ( NOT adjusted to today's dollars) as they were in the 70's In 1976, 15 dollars an hour for a top rate engineer was GREAT money to...

Power amp input is going to want a standard line level signal. I wouldn't sweat that one bit.

Man, even my offensive ass didn't have the balls to mention Audio and Anarchy on here oops I just did

In this field, school can be worse than worthless I don't mean school in general, which will hopefully help pay the bills while you piss away money on recording gear, I mean recording schools Recording schools are for the most part not in the business of teaching the fundamentals of audio...

If you really want versatility, these cardioid only mics are an impediment. The 4050 reccomended earlier would be a good choice

A motu 8 pre paired with an 8 channel adat out unit like the behriner ada8000 will give you 16 simultaneous inputs. I do this combo all the time and it works well

It all depends. Some FX loops are "line level" and some are "low level" If its -10dbV reference coming out of your card, it won't matter much. Any of those old pro rackmounts used line level FX loops, some even were set to +4. If you can plug the outs of an Eventide H3000 into it, you can...

Well if its not spam, its certainly at least extremely wrong

It should be fine, as stated above, its likely to cause more trouble with passive pickups than active ones (assuming its not some totally ridiculous design that cant handle the guitar's output, but all the 20 dollar passives I've seen can do it fine) This video I made here shows why I ALWAYS...

mattr excellent explanation! Are you really 17? Sucks to see someone so promising entering the industry at this point in the game, when its just a stinking festering corpse

If you can afford an 8pre, I HIGHLY reccomend it. IMHO (and as someone who demonstrably NOT a fan of MOTU ) it is the best bang for the buck going right now. The absolute lowest latency available, nearly the lowest CPU. Use the 3.6.7.4 drivers if you can, the newest drivers are not as good. We...
