Hi:
Thus far, for recording tracks, I have simply connected the cable for my music instrument directly to my PC interface box, and used whatever signal processors (equalization, reverb, compression, etc) provided as part of Sony Acid Music software. But for many professional recording studios that I have seen, the engineers have used a mixer first, then routed the signals processed from the mixer to the interface, then to the recording software. What are the advantages, if any, for the use of the mixer? Do you get better sounds from using the mixer first? I'd like some advice before getting a mixer (if need be). Thanks.
