Hey all- well finally have the money saved so i guess its time for a wee bit of recording but i'm stuck at the mo as there are so many choices-
my aim is to be able to record good quality cd with 24 tracks max per song and i might want to record 8 tracks at once initialy when putting down the drums.
I have a 2400mhzAmd- 1028mb pc3200 cl2 mem and about 100gig on sata.
i already have mics so i guess they can be counted out of the budget which is about 1000$.
so i've been looing through catalogues and websites and i just don't think i'm able to make an informed buying decision as i still don't quite unddrstand a lot of the digital terms. could any one reccomend what hardware would suit in this case? i'd be looking for something with 8 ins and outs (well 6 would do) and a soundcard to.
aslo outside of the budget (as that is being got by the other musicians involved) is software i'm looking for good recording software that has a veryfriendly user interface and just maybe one could be fooled into thinking they're still using analogue! anyone know of a sytem where you have what looks like a recording system that you plug into your pc and then that controls the software- that would be so sweet! not the pro tools 002 firewire job- its just 2500 for the deadboard alone! looks sweet though!!
cheers
