May be a dull, dumb question but I have to ask it none the less. Just bought a firepod to enable me to do mobile recordings and record practices and rehearsals with it connected to my laptop.

I know it's cheaper stuff, but i have my eye on either the PreSonus Eureka or GT "The Brick".
Which one should I get?
To be used on vocals and acoustic instruments.

WOULD ANYONE HAPPEN TO KNOW HOW TO HOOKUP A PreSonus TUBEPRE TO A FIREWIRE SOLO? NOTE: Mic IMPUT XLR. SHOULD I CONNECT THE PREAMP TO THE SOLO OR REVERSE?

OH AND I'M HAVING SOUN ISSUES READ THE NEXT TOPIC.

Hey guys, I was wondering about Antares Tube Preamp modeling. But I have no idea what a tube preamp is... I was very happy with Antares Microphone Modeling (which actually turns my 100 dollar Behringer B-1 into a Neumann U47).

So can someone please explain to me please in the simplest of ways what this Tube Pre-amp modeling will do to my vocals?

Looking to upgrade over the Digi 002R pre's. Budget $1,500. I primarily record electric guitar, bass, vocals. My only condenser mic is an AT3035 which is decent but nothing fancy. The unit i decide to get must have a good instrument pre in it.
After research these are the pres i found suitable. If anyone has any experience with these, please let me know what you think:

Does anyone have any microphone/Preamps they would recommend?

Has anyone tried the M-Audio Luna - mic? Any comments?

Product availability in Canada is also a must! (I'm sure all major brands are available here...but I'm not really sure).

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks,
Chris

i found this vintage single channel pa system in a second hand store... i want to use the preamp to see if it sounds any good for recording. The tubes seem to be in good condition they look pretty new so i dont think theyt are original. 10 bucks so i said why not.

from what i've read, i'm pretty much sold on a Sebatron vmp-2000. its hard not having the means by which to demo gear before big purchases, so relying on credible forums like this is my main source of info before making purchases. i'm looking for another quality preamp that would compliment the Sebatron , in the same approximate price range.

Hey everyone. I am currently in a Radio Broadcasting program and I do a TONNE of voice over type work through my own computer here at home. I currently have an Audio-Technica AT3035 condensor microphone that I love, it seems to give me great sound and amazing clarity. There is a couple things though that I would still like to improve.

Being in the UK I don't have access to the same range that are mentioned regularly and those that I do are at wildly differing prices. In my price range I have the following options to compliment my RODE K-2. Which of the above would you recommend?

Primarily it will be for vocals but the more versatile the better.

Many thanks,

Dave
