So yeah. What do you guys say? I'm recording in my tiny room. Should I record using mics, and if so, what should I be looking for? Or.... do you guys know of any good, cheap (ish) interfaces so I plug in and record. Do not have money for digi 001 so yeah something below that. I have an iBook. Any help is good. Thank you.

Most audio interfaces now feature some form of direct monitoring feature to counteract the latency issue, so you should be able to find something to suit your budget. I was messing about with a Tascam US-122 USB interface yesterday - pretty good sound, very cheap solution for what it offers (including phantom power and MIDI I/O). Or how about a second-hand MOTU 828 (original version). Very nice preamps and FireWire, too.
For recording guitars, it's true that you can't beat an SM57 shoved up against the grille of a hot valve amp, but I also use a Marshall DP1 I think it is from time to time - it's a mini preamp the size of an FX pedal. It came out a few years before the whole Pod revolution and I think it died a death sales-wise, but it's got a cool sound if I want to record a Marshall stack simulation without annoying the neighbours. I see no reason why a new Pod won't do just as good a job. I've got a Bass Pod and it's great. |
