I am just starting out trying to get a basic, inexpensive recording system on my G3 Mac. I am running OS 8.6, 350 mHz, 256 megs of RAM. I have a Yamaha CD burner with Adaptec Toast software. I just want to record some voice and guitar. I have been told to get a Shure SM57 microphone and plug it directly into my CPU, then use the Free Pro Tools software. Does this sound right? Should I get a mixer or will the free Pro Tools work okay by itself? Any advice anyone can offer would be most appreciated!

You may be restricted to the same minijack as I have on the G3 ibook. I understand its for Plaintalk mics and is non standard. The Griffin Imic usb/audio adapter is cheap and will give you standard 3.5mm minijack I/O. Minijacks are not considered up to professional standards, but I don't think you could break the female socket soldering on the imic. I tried the imic with the SM58 and a 7 metre stage cable (!!), and got annoying humming when testing it with Recordit (comes with Iomega Zip software). I have a feeling the humming was not the fault of the imic. Anybody know?
Bon courage! -------------------- Without shit, we wouldn't be here ;)
