I'm putting together a basement DAW studio ON A BUDGET. I already have the computer I'll be using (PC, dual core), software(got for free, huzzah for good, or rich, friends), a phonic mu 1705 mixer(got a screaming deal), and now I'm looking for a mic. My first mic. I've done a lot of research, but you can only learn so much without actually talking to people.

Hello all,

Hello,

Really this is a big problem. Where i rent now I can hear pretty much everything that goes on on the floor above me, so I'm sure the people below me can hear me too. That has a big impact on me, I can't just let go and sing, experiment etc, so I just hold back when singing. I'm a terrible singer but I feel the need to experiment a bit anyways. What do I do. Any ideas?

Hey guys. so right now i have Mac G5, Firepod for my Interface. Im only recording my own rock band.

We are in the process of soundproofing a room in an unfinished basement. The walls and ceiling have been insulated and we put on 2 layers of drywall with green glue inbetween. Next we plan to build a room inside this room.

My apologies in advance for my first post being so lengthy, but my old recording haunts seem to have grown inactive.

I could post photos and descriptions of progress thus far if anyone is interested. I figure I'm at about the half way point right now...

Okay - I know I've harped on this before, but I'll do it again.
