before i go crazy buying stuff, i'm wondering if this sounds like a reasonable setup. my digital 12-track has built-in preamps which are actually reasonably quiet, but no phantom power.
i play metal and fusion. the kit is a tama starclassic performer. close miking on 6 toms isn't an option. so this is what i'm looking to do:
(2) mxl 603s OH, through m-audio dmp3 (for phantom power), to daw
audix d6 on kick, directly to daw
sm57 on snare, directly to daw
if i'm not mistaken, i don't need an impedance-matching transformer on my xlr-to-trs adapters for the d6 and 57, since i'm going directly into my balanced 1/4" preamp inputs on the 12-track, which will accept both mic or line level signals. please correct me if i'm wrong on this.
i already own the 57, and just ordered the 603s pair. i'd be buying the d6 and dmp3.
opinions?
