Hi, I'm sure you get posts like this all the time, but i'm sure you understand that posts like this need to be specific, depending on the person/budget etc
I would very much like to get into recording, though i don't want to start off too flash or anything. I'm just looking to have the ability to produce a decent quality recording.
At the minute, i'm pretty ignorant towards recording. I use a Fostex VF-160, record the parts, and then record to mp3 by transferring the parts to a single stereo track in cubase by means of the headphone socket in the Fostex and the line-in of my old crappy pc. It's stupid i know.
these are the results i get - www.myspace.com/thehypefoundation
as you can see the records are shoddy as hell.
Now, obviously i need better recordings. So let's just say i'm starting from scratch and i have £2000 ($2700?). What would you suggest i need to get myself a decent quality recording? As i said before i'm not looking for anything flash just yet, but something to bulid upon would be nice.
I've done my research on microphones, and their placements etc etc
all i need to know is what gear (think budget) i would need to get myself started
are there any laptop computers that are good for recording? as i move about a bit.
any help here would be appreciated, i accept the fact that i am very naive when it comes to this, but i do have willingness to learn.
Cheers,
Dan
