Looking to record and burn CDs of myself playing grand piano, classical music. Want to have good results but not spend a fortune.
Piano is in my home. Just bought 12" Powerbook. Considering Griffin iMic or Powerwave. Thinking of Microphone to Mixer to iMic/Powerwave to Powerbook. Have CD Spin Doctor from Toast Titanium package. Not a professional so don't need professional results but don't want to waste my time either getting crap results. Any suggestions? Am I on the right track? |

in hindsight... I think I was kinda lucky with my music spending over the years. When I started... there were not near as many options available so I decided to use ProTools and get a Digi001 since I knew the first VAST album (great creative production) was done with ProTools and one man. I love that darn tihng (Digi001)... I bought a ESI 2.6 to use with my laptop but didn't like the RCA jacks... the USB connectors (sloppy) and idn't use it as much as I thought so I sold it after a fw months. A Korg Electribe, the ESI, and a EMU cheap sampler were my purchasing mistakes luckily I was able to sell them and maybe lost a little under $100 on each of the 3.
The EMU sampler agrivated me to no end because it wasn't mac friendly and time consuming to setup. It sounded actually fairly nice (full and punchy) sound. However this was not same case with the Korg Electribe... it was fun to play with and you create some amazing sounds using its fx and automation but sound was thin (12bit I think). I found myself using my CS6X synth more than Electribe for most work so I sold them. I almost wish I had kept Electribe though because I think if I could run it into my Presonous Blue Tube & Max... it would have sounded great but didn't have those processors at the time  sorry... I tend to ramble sometimes
