I'm a guitarist -- classical mainly, though I've been fooling around with jazz for the last couple of years.
Without really meaning too, I've put together a great DAW --a fast PC with plenty of RAM and dual hard drives (I spec'd it to be able to run Gigasampler).
Trouble is, the DAW sits in the bedroom of my noisy house, which is rarely quiet enough for me to record in, except on Sunday mornings when my family is out stealing hubcaps.
On the other hand, I have this great outbuilding in the back yard that is wonderfully dead, lined on all four walls with books. I think it might even have been built by the previous owner as a drum studio.
So my question is, what kind of recording device should I buy if I want to record my guitar out back and then dump it into my bedroom PC for further processing? A Tascam 4 track? Wouldn't that make for slow dumping into the PC? Is there a better option? Minidisc recorder, maybe? If any of y'all have had success with a similar setup, please let me hear from you.
