I just got the iPhone SE and considered the Rode IXY. Which would be overkill for scratch tracks IMHO. But might be a good coincidence pair for acoustic guitar and certain recordings.
Maybe someone will chime in with some experience with the rode, I assume it should be pretty decent.
Edit- the...
I'd recommend trying out Native Instruments for amp sims, there layout could be a little better but I like there tones.
Usually what I do is run my guitar into a D.I. box and one line out goes to interface and the other to my amp for latency free recording and not having to commit to a sound...
Looks like there's 2 inputs on that interface that can be used for D.I. guitar, make sure you have that selected correctly.
You should have an separate HD to record Audio too.
I don't remember much about audacity but make sure your input looks right in it for Drums. example>stereo or mono...
In my old house I was getting about that -50 to -55. I was very happy with it (although I really don't think that low is necessary).... Probably be louder where I'm at now.
On the logic 9 demo song, same with the beyonce mix tracks,they didn't edit out a ton of things I would've. In the mix...
So you thought living off the grid would be easy:)

you could also try automating the rate on your delay (writing the movements you make).
1)DAW software
2)interface
3)mic
4)make sure your interface works well with your computer and software
or if your really on a budget get a mic with usb and plug it into your computer.... (for superb performance,sound and versatility this is a waste of money). If your just looking to record your...
You'll want to do one or the other 100% software or hardware, in my experience it always sounds horrible mixing the two.
I usually use hardware monitoring because theres less chance of something going wrong. My way is going into a direct box one line goes into interface and the other goes to...
This is right ^
I think your getting hung up on.....what stereo is technically i.e.. a difference between the two speakers.
Your old school thinking, it's in stereo "coming out of both speakers"
Trying to get on track to help you. Somethings wrong with the way your setup. If you record a...

I listened to your audio for a couple of minutes. I think the ambient sounds are typical with your situation. You can set up a noise reduction plugin that will silence everything below a certain dbs (whatever you set it too). you'll have to experiment with this to see if it will work for...
quote/Or is it just a matter of switching off the synth channel on the mixer when using the synth for midi input, and switching off the midi connection from synth to PC when using the synth as midi instrument? /quote
Yes...there's too many variables, the best thing is to find what works for...
Focus on the good advice these guys are giving you first. Just a couple thoughts came to my mind with some mics you can clip the microphone, and it you a doing a song with really quiet to very loud,you can record them separately with different amounts of gain and distances from mic.

You have to decide if it's worth the trade off between the two.
The small screen on the macbook will get very tiresome, but it's more portable...The iMac has more power. I don't keep up with how the latest computers perform and...
I keep my plugins on my internal with O.S. and logic x. The external is just where the project is recorded too. It's too much work for one drive to read logic/plugins ect. and write audio at the same time to that internal drive.
Hope that helps.
I would get an external drive 7200rpm to record audio to and also get an internal that fast. I have an iMac i7 2.8ghz, 8gb from 2010 and it's hanging in there.
Don't forget you can always freeze or bounce tracks, although I rarely do. I would recommend logic x as I'm happy with it, note I'm...
I really think the at2020 is a great cheap microphone. Sound on Sound has audio files you can listen too, it's in the comparison along with others. Vocal Mics | Sound On Sound
