I need an ad converter

I have a Yamaha 2404 console and need an ad converter with about 16 channels. Iv seen a lot of converters and audio interfaces but most only have 8 inputs or are very expensive. I'm looking for something that has around 16 line inputs, at least 2 outputs, and a way to connect it to my computer (MacBook Pro). I'm looking for something used so I can get it cheaper.

Spotting a counterfeit SM58

As a public service to RO and its potential visitors, I thought I'd research this topic and post a thread explaining the differences between real Shure SM58 mics and counterfeit models. In the last few years, a serious number of fake 58's have hit the global market. This isn't a myth, these fake mics are indeed out there, so here are some things to look for:

Weird background noise in select programs that i need

Hello i am getting into streaming and i have ran into a problem when i try to stream footage the audio has a load of background noise and i haven't been able to fix it. I have tested my microphone on REAPER and it works flawlessly. I am running a Superlux E205 high diaphragm cardoid condenser microphone that is going through a Tascam US-122mk II Audio interface

Should I go portable?

I've already bought a Focusrite Scarlett 18i20 (4 preamps and USB) for £250 off amazon. I am still within my return window. Should I instead return that and get a Focusrite Saffire Pro 40, second hand, off eBay for around £200, although it works out at around the same price due to the cost of a FireWire cable and the £25 FireWire to Thunderbolt adapter?

$99 pocket PC with W10

ive been on an electronics YouTube binge, and this little thing came up for a review. I compared it to its peers, and read a bunch of reviews, and it seems the base $100 is the best bargain. This thing is a full PC ! Not particularly fast 1.4ghz w four cores, but this is a perfect device to use for downloading updates, and file transfers, etc etc.

White Noise/Static while recording in Reaper.

Hey all, this will be my first post on the forum.
I seem to have a problem with static/white noise. even when my mic is muted on my Behringer x2222. My mic is an AKG P420.
The white noise always shows up when I normalize a track, whether I'm recording nothing or my guitar or voice. I'll put up some pictures of my configuration too. Thanks for the help in advance!
