I have been lurking around this site for several days trying to find some information that will allow me to record a Steinway grand piano that will sound something like the original sound when recorded to a CD.
For a low cost sytem looking at many of the posts I would like to know if one of the "experts" could comment on the following components:
Microphones (2) ECM8000's in an x-y configuration.
Preamp/mixer Behringer MX-802A
Both of the above can be purchased for about $160. However I will wait until someone comments on these components.
I have a SoundBlaster Live! 5.1 card in the computer. Should I go for a higher quality unit. I have recorded LP's to CD's using this card and Roxio's CD creator utilizing the pop and click removal. They don't sound too bad.
In addition to the Roxio program I have PowerTracks ProAudio 8 and Magix Music Studio 5. I think the Power Tracks is the better program, but would like confirmation of this.Thanks
