Home-studio recording equipment help?
So I’m trying to put together all the gear I need to record at home, at a semi-pro level. I have a good ear and can hear the difference between crap and quality, so I’m hoping to go a little higher than entry level.
I’ll most likely be using some form of logic btw.
Interface/preamp: M-Audio MobilePre usb interface
Microphone: Not positive, but for the price I’m liking the CAD GXL2200S (package with GXL1200)
I just got myself a nice taylor guitar and I will be getting a macbook pro
I’m up for suggestions, but with the stuff above, I’ve managed to find the interface and mic set for less than 200, no joke. Thanks!
here is a great article on setting up a home studio – http://www.audioneeds.com/forums/content.php?3-The-Startup-Studio
take a gander at that, i think it’ll help you to set up your studio
