Those are both decent interfaces, however with either one you would also need extra preamps (the echo has 2 pres built in and the delta 1010 doesn't have any). You can certainly buy some nice preamps to go with either one, but you indicated a low budget - that's why I suggested an all in one...

Are you talking about hooking it to the delta 44? I believe that can be done using a special cable to use the insert jacks on channels 1-4 as direct outs. You would need a cable with a 1/4" trs connector on one end, with the tip and ring wired together. On the other end the cable would have...

I see, I thought you were thinking of plugging that into the EMU. The answer is yes, you can plug that mixer into your soundcard and it will work, however if all you have is the stock soundcard in your PC, you may not be happy with the quality (the stock analog to digital converters probably...

You really won't need that mixer, unless you're trying to get more preamps to use all at once - in that case, you'd probably be better off getting an interface with more built in preamps. How many tracks do you plan to record at once?

Just curious about this...what types of sources would you say you actually need one on? And since you do attest to the fact that on some particular sources, you get better quality with the high end pres, why is that any different than on other sources?

Where are you at with this? I see that Brendandwyer gave you a bit of info to get started. I am a Sonar user and will try to help, but perhaps more specific questions would be in order. Start with the basics and try to record a single track. Have you been able to do this yet? If not, what...

Do some more research regarding acoustics and such before you do anything. Seriously. 10 Grand is a good bit of cash and you should be able to get a great setup with that, but if you use up all you're money and find you've overlooked an important area, you will be sorry. You may not actually...

Listening through headphones. Like the sound of the guitar and drums - agree with you about the hi-hat. I'm not an expert, but would say you've done a great job with what you have so far. Don't know if you're planning to add vox or any other parts, but in my opinion it needs a little...

I don't think the vocals sound too bad myself - I agree with you that he sounds a bit like that guy from Staind. A little polish and the vocals should be just fine. Some interesting sounding songs there, which should be even more interesting when you add in your percussion parts and other...

You know, while Amazon might be a good place to look for user reviews on something like a mystery novel, I don't think I'd use it as a place to look for reviews on high end DAW software. Just a guess, but I would imagine the kinds of people who really put these programs to hard use are not...

Sonar has a reputation as one of the best daw programs for handling midi. I use it for both midi and audio recording and am very satisfied. I've been through several upgrades and am now at version 4 Studio edition - hope to upgrade to ver. 5 Producer edition soon. I have not used Cubase so...

Sounds good...but my understanding was one reason you should straddle the corners with the bass traps was they required some open space behind them to work well. Would leaving the foam wedge back there actually be better than the open space?

Well, I'm not an expert and like I say I was pretty much just following recommendations, but I understand the 4" is supposed to provide a higher level of absorbtion than 2". However for just killing early reflections the 2" does just fine. And I doubt if even the 4" foam would do much if...

When I did my studio I first discussed my requirements with an "Auralex Consultant". He recommended covering about 60% of my walls with 2" foam, treating the ceiling above the mix position, and using the foam wedge bass traps in the corners. At the time I hadn't yet discovered this board or...

Hey Adam, I probably won't be much help as this really isn't a genre I listen to (never really been able to groove on that demonic chanting stuff), but I thought I'd let you know I took a listen, and give a little feedback anyhow. Biggest thing i noticed is the snare drum sound seems wrong...

Rockin song - I like it. My only suggestion would be to try to get a bit more clarity in the vocals and maybe bring the level on them up just a hair. They seem to get a bit lost some times and I had trouble making out all the lyrics. The singing was spot on, however, and the instrumentation...

Yeah, and if anyone has a nice Taylor acoustic guitar they don't want, I'll be happy to take it off your hands for free - matter of fact I'll even split the shipping charge with you!

Good job Rami. That Focusrite sounds great - your singing and playing do too!

Sounds pretty cool - nice job. :) I don't recognize the language on your website...where are you from?

I agree, that's confusing. That's how it was written in the information I was looking at, which is one reason I was having a tough time sorting it out. Sounds like a good idea, but unfortunately the UAD plugs need the PCI card to run - it doesn't come in any other formats at this time. And...
