I am recently attempting to building my bedroom studio to record mainly vocal and acoustic guitar. The path of bedroom studio seems hard to me at this moment, but I believe it will go smoothly the more I learn :)
Back to the topic, in order to start the bedroom studio, I have already bought 2 equipments which is:
AI: M-Audio ProFire 610
Mic: RODE NT1-A

Thanks for checkin this out! I need some advice on setting up my home audio workstation. My band consists of my cousin (piano) and myself (bass). We use a drum machine for our drummer. For the last 2 years, we have been recording on a Zoom MRS 802b 8 track recorder. Well, to make a long story short, the recorder died on us.

Hi,

I've decided, for a number of reasons, that using a PC for recording is not for me, though I may use one for editing and mixing songs with more than 16 tracks.

I'm looking at buying a second hand recorder.

These are the ones I'm looking at:

Yamaha AW4416
Yamaha AW2400
Tascam SX-1
Akai DPS24
Roland VS 2480
Korg D32XD

I'm looking to record vocals (rap) and i have a list of gear that i think would give me a decent sound for starting

RODE NT1A CONDENSER MIC
ART MPA PRO II PREAMP
ART VLA PRO II COMPRESSOR
M-AUDIO FASTTRACK PRO USB INTERFACE
M-AUDIO DELTA 66 SOUNDCARD
M-AUDIO STUDIOPHILE AV30 MONITORS

Hi guys,

I've been reading through these forums over the last few days and can't thank everyone enough for all the great advice and questions asked here!

Hi,
I have modest means and modest goals: to record songs that I use for musical theatre shows that I write. Keyboard based, plus vocals. I have WinXP with a SBLive! card (with breakout) - which I *may* replace. Also a small mixer (Xenyx 802), FCA202 interface, PC300 controller and Nanopiano, C1 condenser mic, SM58 mic, Cubase s/w.

Hi,
I'm just taking my first steps into the world of recording and am about to buy some monitors. Could you all give me some advice?

I would some advice on if this website is a scam or not? ( http://www.audioinstitute.com/ )
or would I be better off buying new gear with the $500?

Thanks,

Hey everyone,

I am extremely new to recording and looking for as much help as I can. I just bought two microphones in a package known as the AT2041 by Audio-Technica. This package included the AT2020 and the AT2021. Today, I learned that both these microphones require phantom power.

While recording our first demo my band have hit a difficult point, our sound engineer (who normally just mixes dance tunes) thinks it would be best if we quantise everything in our tracks, drums, bass, guitar and keyboard but we play indy/rock and are worried that this will give our songs, which also have a slight funk feel, a very dance tune or chart pop feel and take away the natural groove o
