Hey im really sorry if this has been answered a million times but there are a few things i want to know about setting up recording facilities. i have recorded at a studio before so i kinda know my stuff. i just know i wont be able to afford the huge mixing desk or any of the fancy gadgets.
what i have:
reasonably powerful computer.
instruments
not very much money!
decent 5.1 surround sound speakers
from my time in the studio i know i need recording software (protools or equiv)
but to record onto my computer i will need some sort of input or conditioning equipment (for mics, intruments) as i assume they cant just be plugged in.
all this is assumed so tell me if im wrong.
basically im asking what do i need to get the noise from the instruments onto the computer, and once its there what will i need to get it on cd, does the software do all the final mixing and put it all onto one complete track?
thanks for any help and im sorry if this is either too vague or doesnt make sense!
