Today i've received my FIRST mac, a great powerbook 12" 1,5 Ghz.
I'm a classical music musician and i'd like to rec my performance with a good quality... So, i think i should buy an external HD, i thought for LaCie 100Gb. But i absolutely don't know nothing about mic and ampli (or pre-ampli, i don't know the difference too..). Can you help me? i would like to spend at max about 150-200 euro (200-250 $). Who are so kindly to help me? Thanks for your help jb |

What's your instrument ? It's important to know for a mic choice. It's a flute?
You may me able to start without the external drive (only a mono or stereo could work with the internal) and maybe see that later. Note it may hiccups on recording/playback with only this too, so the drive is the safety route. No problem wit the LaCie. But any external drive using an oxford bridge in Firewire will do. You can buy relatively good mics for about 150€ but you'll need a decent pre with it. At first look for the pre on the interface you'll use. It's a bit tight on the budget to do better. But you'll can always buy better mic/pre later. Also, how much RAM have you got in the powerbook? -------------------- Our Classifeds • Nos petites annonces • Terms Of Service / Conditions d'Utilisation • Forum Rules / Règles des Forums • MacMusic.Org & SETI@Home
