Jumpin' Jesus . . . I wonder how long it's gonna' take before we get some newb in the mic forum asking "What's the best mic to use in a walk-in closet?" :D
 
my closet isn't a walk in, and its filled with junk and pillows and blankets and stuff, so there is like, so not any ambience at all, and stuff.

That sounds . . . um . . . great. I take back what I said, Seif. Now that you mention the pillows, that is. That is so the cool setup.
 
I love these threads that stray completely away from the topic at hand. They don't give any useful advice, but they're just so damn amusing.
 
I get lots f ambeint noise while recording, but the S:N ratio is high when an instrument is being played or vocals being vocalized. Just clip out all the silence between vocal phrases. It takes abit of time, but you get rid of all that unwanted noise. Also saves hardrive space. If you only really sing for 1 1/2 mins in a 4 minute song, why on earth keep the other 2 1/2 mins of "space" in the recording at all? Cut it out.
 
Put a switch on the computer fan, leave the case open and turn the fan off when recording.
