Recording equipment for a newbie

Hey everyone. I'm looking into purchasing some recording hardware for my band. We want to be able to record our own music and get a decent quality.

My question is what hardware do we need to do this. I know we need the mics, cables, and a computer, but what do we plug the mics into to get the recording on to the computer?

DAW vs portable multitracker, please help a newbie

Hi guys, new guy here.

I'm currently using a Korg D16 and I'm ready for something better to record our band. Don't need pro quality, but would obviously like to get the best I can afford. My budget is $1500~$2K.

As the title suggests, I'm torn between a new stand-alone workstation, which I'm quite comfy with, or a DAW, which I know nothing about.

Newbie

Uh...Just a newb. Thought I'd introduce myself. I'm hue and I can see that there are some people here that I will want to learn from. I come from a background when digital was still to tape. Though I've spent time in pro studios behind a decent desk, it's been a while and my chops just aren't at par anymore. Good thing I'm just a hobbyist! Anyway, I'll be pickin' brains here.

A Truly Newbie-ish question: Sending WAV files

Hello,

My apologies for the truly newbie question below:

I am trying to send some songs, in the form of wav files, to people as email attachments so that they can try their hand at mixing and mastering these.

However, the files are larger than 10mb, thus beyond the attachment limits of aol, yahoo, gmail.
