No worries. I started recording when I was about 20... I had two SM-57s (still have those mikes) along with a pair of Shure A95UFs (those low to high impedance converters to run balanced mikes into unbalanced inputs). No real mike preamps. I just ran the mikes into the impedance converters and then direct into my Otari 1/4" 4 track or maybe first through my one effects unit, an MXR delay. That and a Roland Juno-6. Mixed down to cassette on a Roland line mixer. Those recordings sounded great!

Cheers,

Otto
