hello,
Im looking for a way to record. Im stuck between getting a Roland VS -200CD and computer recording.

When on the computer you'll have your mics in to the preamp to the sound card. Now, do you have to have your signal going through the control surface (ex. Mackie control 8)

Hi all, well, I've done a TON of reading of old threads, and need to ask this last question before I swipe the plastic.

Hi all, I am new here and I have a few questions. I have come into a bit of money for mic preamp's and nearfield monitors. I am part of a rock band, and we play live a lot but we'll also be cutting some tracks in the near future using my digi 002. For mic preamps I am considering the following:

Focusrite OctoPre
Digimax LT
Mackie Onyx 1620

Hi,
I was an amateur who want to make a solo classical guitar recording. I'm using Shure SM57 and PreSonus TubePre, but many advices I've heard that it was not a good mic to do this job.

Hi all, am wondering which preamp would be a good match for a AT4060, Neve ?, averill ? open for suggestions . .

Hey,

I'd appreciate anyone's suggestions on this. I've been doing project studio recording for three years now, and I'm pretty well sold on using software plugins in Pro Tools for mixing, but I'd like to invest in some quality front end pieces.

Specifically, I want to get a good mic preamp, and a good compressor for tracking. I can go up to $2K on each unit.

Hi Everybody. I know that this topic has been discussed on lots of threads, but i need your advice on which pre is better for my case.
From what i read the conclusion is that for that money all the preamps I could buy are more or less the same, but as there is a lot of preamps for that money, i can't decide...

Anytime I've heard or read something about home recording, Good preamps and compressors are highly recommended. Can anyone explain exactly what these effects do, and how they improve recordings so dramatically.

Whats up?
Im putting together a project / budget studio and I'm trying to get the best sound I can.
Unsure of a few things though.

First off the main thing to be recorded will be Rap and R & B.

2nd,i guess i've decided to run pro tools and I'm going to run with either the digi 001 or the mbox.probally the 001 because of the amounts of outs and in's.

Hey everybody, wanted to introduce myself. I've been lurking around here for a while now and it's time to jump in and get some of your input.

Warning - my first post is gonna be a long one.
