I need to record vocals as well.... The Peavy RQ200 mixer seems to be the cheapest mixer I can find... does it have preamps built in? (or do all mixers do?) Pardon me, I'm new to all this.. Pier.

The hoontech SoundTrack Audio DSP24 Value looks good... but does it come with onboard preamps? Or do I STILL have to buy a mixer ? :( Pier.

I only need to record one source at a time, and I currently have a Soundblaster value live, which I may upgrade to an Soundblaster Audigy (it's 24bit rite?) ... but what is troubling me is that it seems that I need a preamp to boost the signal from my passive guitar pickup or microphone before...

The SR-16 Drum Machine... How do you guys find it? Are the drum sounds good enough for simple ballads and slow songs? Thanks. Pier.

Thanks guys. I'm off to get that SB Live :) Pier.

Just a simple question. Is the SB live any better than the awe 64 value for recording? Thanks. Pier.

I think it's because it's a 10 buck mic... heehe. But I expected it to sound better than the computer mic... Really like to get a mixer and a good microphone, but just cannot afford it right now. Sigh. Pier.

It sounds sort of muddy and not as crisp. Pier.

I just plugged a karaoke mic directly into the soundcard..by god... it sounds worse than the little computer mic!! How can this be? Pier.

So now, can anyone recommend an afforable mic preamp? Preferably, below 100 bucks. Pier.

Donny, thanx for your reply. Another question, if I get this peavy set, it doesn't come with mic preamps... so do I have to get another mic preamp to bring up the mic first? but since I only want to record one channel at a time, isn't it okay to just get a mic preamp instead of a mixer? Pier.

It's a Peavy RQ 200.Check it out here... http://www.luthermusic.com/cgi-bin/WB_GenItemPage.cgi?t=977532588&Pid=532&Gid=303000077 I don't really need multiple inputs, come to think of it...so, if I need to use a good mic (instead of the computer mic), would it be a better idea to get a mic...

I am going to get the following : A Peavy mixer Sehnniser 385 vocal microphone I already have a computer with sbawe64 sound card. What else do I absolutely need? Cables , adaptors? Thanx. Pier.

Yeah, drstawl... but this way, I wouldn't be able to edit individual tracks using Cakewalk Pro's plug-ins, would I? I guess it's either one or the other? Another small question - when the mixer turns the mic in to line level , I can plug the output to my 1/8" line in or mic right? (by using a...

Ok I c....but what's the point of getting a mixer if I can't record simultaneously? Sigh. Pier.

Hmm.. Straightforward enuff... What if I have a program like cakewalk and like to record the vocal and guitar on different channels/tracks so that I can edit them? Thanks. Pier.

total newbie here... Just want to know whether I can run my mixer to my awe64 sound card's 1/8" line in and mic in? What convertor is needed? Does the mic have to go through the mixer to the mic in? (or, in other words, does the mixer act as an pre-amp?) Let's say, I have a mic on channel one...

Ok.. lemme list what I have..... A Computer with 10Gig, 64MB ram, 433 Celeron processor, AWE64 sound card. A semi-acoustic guitar. A crummy pc microphone.. I like to record my song into the computer, and I guess I need a better mic than the pc one.... (it causes soft hissing in the...

Hmmm... I am also interested to know what I can do with a limited budget.... If I get the pod 2.0, does it act as a preamp for the guitar and microphone? Pier.

oh yah Oh, forget to mention that I want to record in wav.. I have cool edit and cakewalk, if it helps to know. I would like some recommendation of equipment to buy too... thanks once again. Pier.
