Video recording: thoughts, questions, etc.
Forums
So I finally took the plunge and got myself an HD Video Camera (a Canon with 1080/24P - I bought a JVC at first, but within 8 hours returned it for a myriad of reasons!).

Preamp Upgrade?
Forums
Hi there folks. It's been awhile since I've been here but alas, I have another question.
Right now my main recording rig is:
Desktop PC w/ XP
Emu 0404 USB Interface
AKG Perception 220
Shure SM57
I'm looking for some type of upgrade. I believe for now my mics are okay, but let me know your INPUT (ahaha) on that. I do all sorts of styles of music.

usb hard disk for recording
Forums
are usb hard disks slower than normal sata2 ones for recording? I mean, if I buy a portable hard disk to record into so as not to use the internal, system one, will it be slower (due to the usb cable as opposed to the sata2) in its transfer rate? does it depend on anything else besides its own speed (i.e. motherboard, etc)?

Morley PWOV Power Wah Volume Combination
Forums
I need a new volume wah combo. I've been using Morley for twenty years and its worn out. Its been a great pedel, smooth sweep and control plus simple. Maybe there are new designs I don't know about now. What do you recommend?

Sound interface recommendation
Forums
Hi,
I got myself a Soundcraft EFX8 mixer. I need recommendation on sound card interface to go with it. I have 2 choice as a setup.
1- My laptop only has USB 2.0 and no PCMCIA slots. Advantage, my laptop is portable and I can do recording outside my house (I play in a Brass quintet).

I've encountered the struggle
Forums
Between guitarist and engineer. I currently run my guitar through a ten band EQ and distortion pedal through clean amp. I have trouble finding a balance between my guitarist and engineer side.

Oktava MK 012-01
Forums
Can anyone tell me if these mics sound anything like the RODE NT5s? I have a set of the RODE but came across a set of the Oktava 's for a good price and am kicking around getting them, though I really don't 'need' them...particularly if they're going to sound close to what I already have.
I mainly use my SDC for acoustic guitar.
Thanks.

AKG Perception 220
Forums
I've seen one of these on sale for £100.
I've never used one before, are they worth buying? For that price anyway?
Bear in mind that my budget doesn't really stretch much further than that, and I already have SM57/58s.

Help me please (and don't mock my gear please, even thought it is most likely deserved.)
Source > Behringer 1832FX mixer > Seasound Soloist > Sonar 7.
Here is my current method. rip away!
1) I set the trim so the clip light doesn't/barely ever lights up.
2) Have the main mix faders set on 0.
