Hello all.

I am new to the forum (as you can see from my post count), but not so new to recording. To put it plain and simple, Vista has thrown me into a whirlwind of confusion.

I tried installing Cubase (wouldn't work), Sonar (wouldn't work), and finally got Magix 2005 to install completely and run.

Hello,

New SE GM10 microphone to record acoustic guitar not sounding great...what new equipment do i need?

Setup:
- Core 2 Duo laptop with Cubase.
- Soundcard MAudio Firewire Audiophile (no phantom power or preamps)
- Mixer Phonic 1002 (phantom power)
- Yamaha P5 Active Monitor Speakers

Hello everyone, I am a new arrival.

Hi,

We are going to be recording software tutorials and so it will be voice only. The problem is that the pc's being used to record are small form factor with limited ability to add a sound card. So this brings us to the question, for voice recording is the internal sound card good enough or would a external USB type sound card worth looking into? Our type internal sound cards are:

I've recently upgraded my motherboard to a GA-P35-S3 motherboard. This new board does not see my Darla card in the list of PCI devices in the BIOS. This sound card is from 1997, has anybody ever come across a similar issue before?

If i got a mixer could i just connect it to my computer with a sound card.
Does any one else record stright onto computer. If so how do you like connect the mixer to the computer. I no it proboly sounds stupid but please help.

I really hope someone can help me with this problem, I feel like I’ve made some headway but I’m still slightly clueless! Apologies if this post is a bit long.

First off my system: I have a relatively new Compaq 1.6ghz laptop, 1GB mem, win xp sp2, with a crappy internal soundcard, no slot for a new internal one.

I have an opportunity to buy one of these soundcards, but am not sure which is better or if both should not be bought.

I'm just starting out. have a computer and believe the specs will cover what's needed by these soundcards.
