Thanks for the advice. I think I might end up with the M Audio mobile pre, because I'm on a pretty tight budget. I'll likely only ever be recording 2 tracks max. at once, so that shouldn't be a problem. My main concern is with latency. As long as I can record with zero (or very near-zero)...
I can't say for sure, but you might want to check your recording settings within the program. Usually, if you are doing any home recording (vocals, guitar, etc.) you are recording in mono. If your program is currently set up for mono, you might be recording only 1 channel. ie. you may only be...
I'm thinking of upgrading to an external soundcard for recording, and I was looking at both the Tascam US-122 and the M-Audio mobile pre. I noticed that they are both USB 1.0. I guess the USB 1.0 has to be sufficient, or nobody would buy these things, but is at risk of becoming obsolete any...
That's really unfortunate, because I think Audition is one of the simplest recording programs to use... it's just still a little too primitive for certain things.
Thanks for the help,

OK, I've read a bunch of the other monitoring threads, and I'm still somewhat confused, so I'll lay out all the info I have before I ask the question.
I have a Large diaphragm condenser mic. I run either the mic, or my guitar directly into a behringer 6-channel mixer. This goes directly into...
I am running a Behringer 6-channel mixer (which for me is overkill) into a soundblaster audigy 2. Since the sound card only has 1 input, that means you can only record 1 track at a time. If you want to record, for example, 4 tracks simultaneously, you need 4 inputs on your sound card. You...
I turned down all other volume and gain knobs on the mixer, and that most definitely helped! The other thing I noticed is that whether my mixer is on or off, and whether the line into my computer is in or not, the decibel level during "silence" with the mic off hovers around -60. This gets...
I've tried using a gate, but I just don't like the end result. I find that sometimes it misses subtleties. I've also tried altering the volume and gain levels on the mixer, but it seems like as soon as the hissing is successfully removed, the volume level us much too low for recording. I...
I record at home using Cubase, Audition, and Ableton Live, and aside from MIDI, everything I record goes through an MXL 2003 Condenser Mic. This is then sent to my Behringer Eurorack 602A Mixer, and then into my Computer. The question I have is this: You obviously don't want a hissing noise...
