it still has a converter--converts to magnetic pulses.

make sure you hit the phantom power for some extra gain boost.

You're wrong. I'm sorry, but you're just wrong. The 1066 has better components and sounds better than the 166. If you don't believe me when I say it is different check out the specs.

mbox Protools. You can get it cheap on ebay.

I guess it all depends. For anything rock I tend to stick an L1 on it--but I don't slam it.

No, it's very rare that I have crashes and if I do, protools just exits--no freezes. It's a Pentium P4. Oh, and I do not use reverb plugins or delay plugins and that makes a difference, but I do use a lot of L1's and C1's--those tend to hog up the ram too.

stick an L1 after your C1 as well.

i can get over 40 waves plugs on my PC system running protools at 32 tracks plus busses with a 2.4 ghz processor and 1 gig ram.

usually your silibance is more around 6-7k. I like dessing that's just me.

what kind of amp is it? what kind of speakers? what kind of guitar? what kind of distortion if any?

depends on what your application is. If it's snare, i would chose almost anything other than a 57.

you might want to try some multiband compression on the bass as well to compress the low end.

^ yes, because matched pairs really matter. ?

you turn it the fuck down.

maybe add a little stereo reverb as well.

yes it's good. and yes, it will give you good results.

here in the states, we call it editing.

i'm going to have to agree completely with Lrosario. Amateurs can't play to clicks. I play drums to a click. This makes it soooo much easier. I can do three takes and toggle between playlists in protools and take the best parts of each take to make a perfect drum take. Slap a little beat...

i agree, a lot of it has to do with the singer. You might want to try a different mic too.

IMO you'll never find character in a plugin which is why i always try to go for transparency if i'm using plugs.
