Well, I can't really talk about the recording stuff (yes, lol at the noob :P) but i can say taht that comp is almost perfect, apart from the PSU, you should look at the Corsair hx-520, as its one of the most reliable psu's on the market :D
Just another question: For all of those who use Pro Tools, would it be easier for later upgrades if I started with a 003R instead of the Fire Studio? I was jsut thinking its not that much more.. and all the professional studios where I live use Pro Tools...
Sorry m8, dont pay attention to me, its just me being annoyed with everything and taking it out on you ^^
Well, now that you understand, jsut look around, the presonus range is pretty good for beginners :)
You do not need a MIDI interface for audio... Do I have to say it again to make you understand?
You need an audio interface like a Presonus Firepod or something..
I'm not completely sure, but I dont think its possible...
As it will probably be using Midi over USB (MIDI cant hold audio btw) it wont be able to send anything other than MIDI signals to your computer, so it wouldn't be able to send audio that you want..
I live in Australia, so itd probably be the same as buying one here (I assume ur in the US of A??) But anyway, I don't have the money quite yet so no thanks m8, but thanx for the offer :D
Yeah.
I like the Beta 58's more than the 87a's...
Sansamp Bass Driver looks pretty sweet too...
I'd probably get a Behringer DI for the keyboard as they seem fairly solid..
I've just remembered that I have a copy of cubase sx3 (i'm guessing its better than LE?)
Sennheiser e604's look amazing...
Well, I feel i'm ready to dedicate a lot of time to getting some decent recordings of my band... But I don't want to continually pay for someone else to do all of our recordings (plus I wouldn't mind a lot more control over my mixes), hence me buying under $2k of gear ^^
Band...
Turns out that our drummer had 3 Nakamichi CM-100's or CM-1000's (cant remember which). Can we use them as overheads for the drums? Any other appications for these mics?
Cheers m8 for that - makes it a lot simpler :)...
Discovered taht our drummer has a decent vocal mic so we'll try that 2day :D
I'll post back later to tell you what it is...
Yeah, we want to be able to record all of our stuff so we have as much control over it as possible..
I also spend most of my life playing and listening to music, and I also hoped to do it as a side project to make some money while im at uni. So I want the best I can get with what I have at the...
Probably some Tascam VLX-5s that a friend has... (Anything that is about $400 a pair better than this?
Probably ProTools LE or Cubase SX3.
I was thinking about getting a behringer D/I later on.
Have a fair few leads, and ill be getting a load more with the equipment.
Hey, I'm completely new to recording and would like some advice on recording my metal band.
We are looking to record, and as we want to spend a fair amount, we don't want to spend it on a one-off recording session at a professional studio.
We need to
The gear that we have at the moment is a...
