Looking for a ~$150 (around or less) cond. mic as an upgrade
Hi everyone! I'm looking to buy a new condenser mic as an upgrade to my current system. I'm currently using a MXL 990 condensor mic with a PreSonus Firebox preamp. The mic will be mainly used on me with an emphasis in recording vocals in a small home studio (aka budget studio).
Upgrade from a Mackie Onyx 1640
I have a Mackie Onyx 1640 and I want to upgrade:more channels, something less sterile sounding, I want to record at least at 92/24 with no less than 16 tracking simultaneously, and must have firewire or USB. Price range $3000-$3500 new.
I was looking at two MOTU HD192, would that be a good choice? Any and all help would be GREATLY appreciated!

M-audio ProjectMix IO upgrade?
I could use some advice, sometime in january or febuary I will be buying a new interface to help get my freelance producing going. If I buy the m-audio ProjectMix would that be a great start or what? I basically will be using it to record bands with a DAW. I want something that gives me great sound and great control on a professional project studio level.

New to the site and will look over the forum over the next few weeks ..

need help making recording upgrade choices
Hi, I'm looking to upgrade the home recordings I do on my computer. I've been doing recordings for years (I'm a poor college student now) by just recording my voice/instruments on a mic straight into the computer. As you can imagine, the quality is not great. Now that I've realized I'm serious about recordings, I need to have a better setup.

Help me Upgrade my Studio
Greetings from Greece!
I am posting for the first time on this forum although I am a frequent reader for a long time now! I currently have in my Studio a Tascam Firewire 1884 audio interface connected to a PC running Cubase SX 3.

Tascam CD-RW 700 or upgrade?
I've searched the Forum and can't find anything about this specific topic...there might be info I missed about the follow-up questions. Sorry if this is a double post.
We have an old (relatively) Tascam CD-RW 700 we've used in the past as a mixdown deck. We really like it. However...Tascam has put out a few newer models since we bought the 700.
The main question is:

So my current set-up is:
Behringer c2s (sorry) > Behr Mixer > MiniDisc
What we get out of it is crap, but it is reference for us to look back at our gigs and examine what we did wrong/right.

Is the CRane Song Hedd 192kHz upgrade worth it? I know its not that expensive but I am really not sold on the need for 192kHz. Thoughts?
