    What is this?

    I'm not getting a clip indication, yet there sounds like clipping from my recorder in this recording. The level meters don't always show full when this clipping sound is heard. I'm wondering if it's something in the signal chain? Vox AC30-->Sure SM58(with ball removed, a couple inches from the...

    Using my acoustic amps mic preamp for recording?

    I have an AER Acousticube, pretty much the best acoustic amp there is. Everything about this thing screams quality and fidelity. It has a 48v mic input, as well as a XLR DI out. Since I don't have a lot of money to spend on mic pre's, I was wondering if I bought a nice condenser mic, and ran it...

    Dynamic mic connected to Line input rather than Mic?

    I have an SM58 and a Boss Micro BR(portable 4track). For this question I'm using the mic(with pop shield removed) to record a Vox AC-30. I find that if I connect the SM58 to the BR Boss and select EXT(external mic) option for my input connection, I can hear clipping, even if I set the...

I was at first going to go for the K&K XLR preamp, but I've been overwhelmed with all the other options out there. I've now been looking at the Radial JDV, but I'm not sure if it's a preamp or just...

    Radial JDV variable impedance? Does it work well with K&K Pure Mini?

    I've heard the name Radial passed around many times, always with praise and good reviews. So I've decided to check them out, and wow, their product descriptions are deep and detailed! Is this a preamp too, or just active DI? From what I can read, it sounds like the JDV has variable impedance...

    Boss micro BR or Tascam DP-004??? Mainly concerned with built in mic quality

    Looking for something to always have around to capture those spontaneous jams or ideas. It will be mostly used with the built in mic. Simultaneously recording 2 tracks is preferred, hopefully using the built in mic, as well as plugging one in. I'm pretty sure both can record 2 simultaneously...
