Hi....new here... but I like the site.

One quetsion though I could not easily find.

I want to buy a Shure SM57...but can i hook it up directly into my Imac?
Its an Imac G5 20".....
Can i do it through the line-in?
Or do I need something else...or should I go for a completely other mike?

It's mainly for recording voice/acoustic guitar for demo's.

IMac G5 20" 1GB OSX 10.3.9, Imac G3 400Mhz 512MB OSX 10.2.8

You will most likely need to use a pre-amp to plug any mic into your Mac, although I'm not familiar with your particular Mac model.

Behringer makes a nice, inexpensive (about $40-$50) one.
