get a Studio Projects B1. only $80 definitely can be used for both acoustic and vocals

mobile pre should be fine. however, if you have the cash, i'd recommend going PCI, ala: Audiophile 2496 $140 m-audio DMP3 $160 either way, should be fine.

sheesh, the same questions are asked like all the time. MAKE A FAQ MODS!

dude, that computer is more than enough get a new soundcard. like an audiophile 2496.

like he said computer soundcard preamp mics monitors/headphones ------------ some good starter equipment: soundcard - audiophile 2496 preamp - DMP3 mics - sm57, SP B1 monitors/headphones - Behringer Truths good luck yo

the line in is where you would plug whatever is going in, like a POD, or V-amp or whatever. maybe you should buy a v-amp or something. metal zones have a reputation for sounding crappy too.

if you have lots of money, go mac if not go pc simple eh? :D

do you guys think a miked small amp, like the vox pathfinder or the orange crush 10 could get better sounds than a DI solution, like a POD or whatever?

you might want a new soundcard. to mix down, you go to edit and select mixdown to file. what are your computer specs?

the 1212m looks pretty darn spiffy. two inputs 1/4", two SPDIF, firewire, MIDI, ADAT...wow i've never heard anything about this card, but on paper it sounds great. if you need those features i'd say go for it. if you just need two channels of analog, and one digital plus midi, i'd say go...

forgot monitors Behringer Truths - $300 (they're powered) cables as well, probably around $50 that should now be right around $1000 this setup is tried and true by many people. definitely a safe route to go. however, you might want to go piece by piece, getting used to everything before...

boodaddy - if you plan to just record vocals and guitar, then you just need a 2 channel preamp, 2 channel soundcard, recording program, and mic(s). you only need two channel stuff cuz you can just overdub your singing for harmonies and same for guitar parts. if you needed to, you could...

that would help i imagine. just try puttin the mic straight on the grill, pointed into the cone. you get the least room reverb that way and should get a nice heavy distortion sound. you probably don't need a condensor, cuz people have been micing amps with SM57's forever. good luck

i dunno, SM57 and Studio Projects B1 are considered very versatile mics for everything. what kind of preamp are you using? maybe get a nicer preamp, like a RNP or something along those lines. what kind of monitors are the edirols? i didn't know they made "real" monitors, only have seen the...

i didn't even know they went that low. i thought 5400 was the lowest. i'm sure you could do around 10 or more

how fast is your processor? is it a celeron?

i was in the same situation a while ago. if you have 80 dollars, buy an audio buddy from zzounds.com or someting. that plugged into your "line in" via a 1/4" to 1/8" adapter will be sufficient for a preamp. then you can buy a mic of whatever quality is necessary and record the acoustic with a...

yeah my audio buddy wouldn't power my MXL 1006. good thing the mic can also be powered by a battery.

audio buddy is only $80. i've got one, works good.

USB audiophile should be fine.
