I'm looking into new monitors and would appreciate opinions on these 2 for my small home studio. Thanks in advance.

I am ready to upgrade my computer for audio recording to a new P4 2.6G possibly with 512 RAM and an ASUS P4P800 deluxe board, 40gig and 120gig HD's, and the Echo Mia soundcard. I've been reading that a good case, fans, and esp. powersupply are important. Any advice as to which case/fans/ps to...

How does this set-up look for recording? I have an Echo Mia soundcard and another 120GB HD I can use. http://www.etccomputer.ca/eShop/default.asp?selection=system&systemid=350

I see some people on this board build their own computers dedicated to recording. Are their any reasonably priced builders offering say a Pent.4, 2.5Ghz, 1 Gb RAM w/ 2drives? Seems like Dell and other major co.'s are relatively expensive and make you pay for stuff you don't need like cheap...

Can anyone tell me what the best wall covering material is for quieting AC condenser lines that are run through one of my interior walls? I attached 1"x2" fir strips and 3/4" styrofoam panels between them on this wall and then 1/2" sheetrock over that but still get noise when the AC is on. I...

I now have an SM57, MXL603s, MXL67V and a Ross dynamic for mics. Any recommendations for a starting point for set-up of these for recording acoustic guitar and mandolin and vocals would be appreciated. That is, distance from instuments, placement, etc. I will be using a DMP3 preamp running...

I was looking at the specs on these 2 mics and they appear to be almost identical. I'm looking for a vocal/instrument mic in this price point (<$100) and would like to get opinions about these two. I already have a MXL603 and an SM57 and am trying to decide which large condenser to get. Thanks...

I saw the recent post about making quality mic cables from the Canare star cable and xlr connectors. I would like to build similar cables with 1/4" TRS jacks for balanced cables between a DMP3 pre. and an Echo Mia soundcard. Does anyone know which wires connect where on the Neutrik 1/4" TRS...

I am trying to decide between these 2 pre amps for 2 channel recording in conjuction with the 2496 audiophile soundcard. Does anyone have recommendations? I want to record vocals, acoustic guitar and electric guitar and am trying to figure out the best setup to go with for this. A friend says he...

I have one of these mics. It's a dynamic, uni-directional mic that looks similar to an SM58. My question is this: Is this a good quality mic compared to the SM58? Thanks.

Hello all. I would like to get opinions on the best soundcard and mic setup for under $300. I just upgraded my Pent.3 to 120GB. I'd like to record electric and acoustic guitar(with preamp), vocals, keyboard and mic'd mandolin and guitar. I have a Shure SM57 already. Just want to be able to put...
