I have an Alesis board, Alesis AI3 Converters, 2 SM57s, 1 AKG 3000b, an AKG 590S dynamic, a Audio-Technica MB4000C condensor, 2 Radio Shack dynamic omnis (made by Shure) and a waiting client. I have never recorded classical guitar before and would like to know what others have tried on such a low budget.

Hi!

Hi there,
I'm a small facility owner.
We have 24 track analog, a G4 with a MOTU setup, a couple dozen mics, some outboards, a control room and a 40sqm tracking room.
I was going to ask all of you what was the typical budget for a 10 song project, but rates are so different from a country to another, so it would not make any sense.

What you guys think about this setup:
2 Marshall MXL 603 (overheads)
1 Oktawa MK 012 (bottom snare)
1 RE 20 (kick)
1 SM57 (top snare)
3 Sennheiser 604 (toms)
1 Marshall MXL 2001 (vox)
With this setup I should spend around... 1200 and I still have a spare MXL 2001... comments? Ideas?

So a friend of mine wants to get into recording digtal and wanted my advice for a sound card. I told, as I do everyone else, get th RME Audio Hammerfall. He asked if he would really need 26 channels. I responded with, "not yet." Problem solved.

I'm a drummer and I'm also planning to build my home studio. So, what you guys think about this set?
2 Marshall MXL 2001 (overheads, vocals...)
2 Marshall MXL 603S (hi-hats and snare)
and two opptions:
a CAD KitTrick with 4 mics (one for the bass drum)
or a Sennheiser E604 3 Pack and a AKG D112 or a Shure SM something-I-forgot :)?
