Hello, first time posting here.
Well, here's the scoop. I've got a home recording studio. It's an 8 track TEAC 1/2 reel to reel. It's powered by a kick-a$$ harmon Kardon tube. I've been using a decent Mackie 16 channel mixing board, decent tube preamps , standard out-board effects rack.

I'd sure welcome any advice on recording a keyboard. It's all new to me, I just have a modest humble home setup, trying to do the best with what I've got.
I've got a Casio Wk3200, I take a line-out of its stereo headphone jack and record direct to my recorder.

Hi everybody,
I am basically an MC who has little to no interest in audio equipment, but needs to know how to use it, and struggles to figure it out.

I have just purchased a Behringer MIC200 Preamp, and a Behringer C-1 microphone, and am having an absolute sh!t of a time trying to set it up with my computer.

I'm putting together a system for a friend and I am using DAvid French's budget DAW as a model (see below). At Davis's suggestion I am asking if there is another case that folks would recommend that might work better than the Nexus Breeze in terms of both cooling and noise. I am looking to spend no more than the cost of the nexus if possible. My total budget is around $800.

I'm a complete noob, so I'm sorry if I'm asking some stupid questions here.

- I want to direct record guitar from a line 6 pod, straight into my soundcard, and create some basic drum tracks using a midi editor (rather than via a keyboard, so don't necessarily need midi ins/outs)

- I have a pretty limited budget, and want to keep things as simple as possible

I'm currently making my first recording set up. As of right now, I only intend on recording vocals (rap, some singing). I've been looking at an AKG Perception 200 (large diaphram condenser) because I've heard it's the best one in my price range. However, I've also heard things about power supplies, preamps , etc...

I have the chance of getting any of the SE mics at very good prices, so I thoughא of having a combination of a few mics which will be used all over for recording acoustic guitars and electric guitars (my main amp is a Twin), piano, vocals and drums. What would be the right set to get out of these options -

Hello -

I've got a really basic and somewhat unconventional setup. I'm running a Yamaha MG 10/2 Mixer into the Line-In on my pc.

I record into Audacity... usually doing the guitar tracks separate from vocals. My guitar is run directly in, as well as mic'd.

I'm an R&B vocalist described as having a clear 1st Tenor crooner type voice (good low range too). I'm looking to upgrade my current Studio Projects C1 mic to a U87. For mic preamps I currently have an Avalon M5, RME Fireface 800 (mic preamps on it), and an ART Tube MP.

The music I am recording is Heavy Metal. I have been preparing to record guitar tracks for my bands CD. I'm playing a Marshall stack through a AVT150 Head. The order or setup is:

Guitar-Pedals-StageworksEQ-MarshallHead-Alesis3630Compressor to SM57 "flat" towards the angle of the cone which goes into an ART DPS II Stereo Tube Preamp which than goes into a Yamaha AW1600.
