Hey folks..
Well, I know it's a little late to be asking this, but I'm going to anyway. I headed over to Sam Ash and told the guy I'm new to recording, "what do I need?"
So, he directed me towards a Tacsom USB based analog to digi converter, which I bought. (The 122, or 112 version)
Then, when it came to mics, I wasn't so sure. He talked me into a Samson C01 Large Diaphram Mic, for vocals and guitar. It was 70 bucks, and seemed like a nice deal. I asked him maybe 5 times is the SM57 wasn't better, since I play a great deal of other instruments, but he said no, since it wasn't good for vocals.
So, my question is, should I buy a SM57 or even a 58? Since the Tascom and Mic are under layaway, I can always just return it on the spot for a different mic.
I'll be recording Trumpet, Sax, Horn, Trombone, Guitar, Bass, and a whole pile of things. But, I'd like to do some decent vocals as well, and I just dont have the money for two microphones now.
Thank you for your time, I apologize if I'm being vague at all.
