clean

Hello,

I've a a home studio and invested in good gears. Fortunately all was going well but ever since summers started, I've been facing an issue:

I have this setup : Windows 7 64 bit 16GB RAM . MOTU UltraLite mk3 hybrid + Mytek Stereo96 DAC .Dynaudio BM5A MKII.
Gonna buy Mytek Stereo 96ADC + Speck micPre 5.0 .
I have a small homestudio room with acoustic treatment, so it sounds balanced .
I have been looking for mic's, but it's a jungle for me that never had recorded before .

I am in the dilemma of upgrading from Pro Tools 7.4HD to 10HD. We currently have 2 rooms running 7.4 with HD2 accel on windows xp machines with the legacy 192's and sync I/O's. I would like to upgrade to 10HD with our existing hardware running on osx Lion systems.

I'm new to recording so, aside from lacking experience, I lack swappable hardware for troubleshooting my problem, thought maybe somebody here could help.

I'm looking to add a relatively inexpensive CLEAN pre. Anybody, which flavor; Focusrite ISA one or Grace m101 ?

The high notes on bass are not as audible as the low notes and the low notes on guitar are not as audible as the high notes. What can I do to fix this? I am using reaper.

i have api, purple, groove tubes, osa. i need something clean. don't have tons of cash, this business is hard on the wallet these days. its not for drums. its more for vocals, acoustic guitar, bass di/pod, distorted guitar Micing (through mics such as, sm7b, e609, sm57, beta57a, 421mkII. and for indie rock drum over head/s for "true live drum sounds".

Here is a fun little idea that I had whilst sitting on the crapper (don't you get all your great ideas here?) and now I really want to do it. Basically I just want a simple one knob line boost to boost my guitar signal cleanly before it hits the amp. What components would I need? How much would it cost me? Is this a realistic goal?

Hey! I'm creating a quick/easy rock space in my basement for me and 3 others to dabble in recording. I use a simple setup with DIs, Shure mics, a PV14 mixer, and a BOSS digital deck, and some PC post-production.

Hey all, I've been dabbling in recording both analog and digital on and off for some time, but there's still a lot I need to learn.
