Hi, Yes, you are right, I just got an Art tube pre-amp and an NT1. They sound great. The recording here was done a few weeks ago though when I hadn't got them yet. Next time I'll use them though, I sure hope it makes a difference... Peter

Thanks for your feedback. I agree on the drums being a bit loud. Others have had the same comment. I guess mixing through computer speakers isn't to be recommended... Do you have any advice on how to achieve a good (synth) baseline? Pedro

Hi, Heres my second try. The set up is the same as last time. I recorded directly to hard drive (without a preamp) using Cubase Vst 3.5. For noise removal I used Cooledit. The soundcard is a Soundblaster Live Platinum. The instruments are an electric guitar, the rest are midi-instruments...

Thanks for your feedback. I just got my NT-1 and Art pre-amp. I must say that things sound a lot better now (especially from a noise perspective). Before I used the built-in preamp in my sound card = mucho noise. I had to use heavy noise reduction in Cooledit which messed up the sound...

Hi, 'frn' is supposed to be 'från', which is 'from' in Swedish. Perhaps we'd better change the name before going global.... Pedro

Hi, I recorded directly to hard drive (without a preamp) using Cubase Vst 3.5. For noise removal I used Cooledit. The soundcard is a Soundblaster Live Platinum. The problem with this card is that all the midi sounds are very low volume which means that when I record them as audio at full midi...

Hi, Im pretty new to this recording stuff. This is my first attempt at recording. I would very much appreciate any feedback which would help me improve. This is the link (it's rather long, just copy it)...

Hi, There are quite a number of sites on the web where people who want to buy the same thing make the purchase together in order to bring down the price e.g. www.letsbuyit.com. Since a lot of us seem to be interested in buying pre-amps, microphones etc maybe we could try to set up something...

Hi, I am recording through one microphone to my hard drive. When I record having selected stereo I get two copies of the same track. Is there any use in recording stereo when I use just one mic or is it just as good to record in mono then? Thanks Pedro

Hi, I am recording acoustic guitar. When the guitarist changes chords, sometimes a tweeking noise occurs. Is there any easy way to remove this? Pedro

Hi, I have a set-up with a fast computer running Cubase and Cooledit, a soundblaster live platinum soundcard, a Rode NT1 and a Tube MP pre-amp (i.e. no mixer). I mainly record vocals and acoustic guitar but also some electric guitar. I plan to record some violin tracks as well. I am looking...

Hi, I am thinking about getting the ART tube pre-amp for connecting to a Rode NT1 (or possibly AKG c3000). An alternative would be to purchase a mixer. Are there any decent low cost mixers with sound of the same quality as the preamp? My budget is 200 USD. Pedro

Hi, My soundcard has a mic in as well as a line in. I am able to record sound using the microphone that shipped with the computer (small grey low-quality) using the the mic in. Will the c3000 leave less output and therefore require a pre-amp? Have you got any idea how much a phantom power...

Hi, I have a soundblaster live soundcard and would like to connect the AKG c3000 mic to it directly (i.e. without going through a mixer). (I plan to buy a mixer later, but money is a bit tight now). Is this possible. From what I know the akg c3000 needs phantom power. Can I buy an external...
