    Help me choose comp for budget home studio :-)

    Hi guys, first of all, happy new year! After years of mixing in the box i thought it would be nice to equip my modest homestudio with some analog hardware. Nothing too expensive since i just can't afford high end gear, everything i buy have to be 400/500euros maximum (second hand price) and most...

    Upgrading 2>4 mic inputs audio interface

    I've been using an SSL2 audio interface for the past year, i really like it a lot but i feel a bit restrained when recording the drums. 4 xlr mic inputs would be a better choice for me. So i thought i could resell the SSL2 and upgrade! Since i was satisfied with the SSL2, i assume i should get...

    Audio interface + preamp

    So i bought an external preamp, the GAP pre73jr and was looking forward to using it...until i realized i couldn't bypass the gain section of my audio interface, a newly acquired SSL2. I tested with 3 different mic (as drums mono OH), RB500, SM57 and C214 and the result is always the same: i...

    Questions about signal ratio, audio interfaces and garageband...

    Until recently i was using Garageband on an old mac with a line input so i used to plug the mic into a mixer, use its preamp then straight into the laptop. I could adjust the level both with the mixer and also Garageband's input level. Last month i was able to get myself a brand new laptop and...

    Overhead for mono drums?

    Hi guys... i need some advice: i'm looking for a decent mic i can use as an overhead for the drums. I want these drums in mono, so it's an aesthetic choice for a specific purpose. I'm gonna mic the kick and snare too but i'm already happy with what i have....so about this overhead, and i can't...
