I have a brand spanking new mac mini and want to record some live performances to cd at near-studio quality sound for a "sample cd" of my work as a classical operatic singer. I know I'll need a good condenser microphone...
...any suggestions? and a decent interface....any suggestions? and some software that allows me to burn in at least 16 bit sound to a CD, keeping the possibility of CD duplication open... ...unless I can do this with Garageband 2 and itunes, which I doubt. I'm doing live performances. One or maybe two tracks and very little editing if any, but I need it to have decent sound quality. what should I be looking for? (thanks in advance for any help) Tabor |

what i'm thiinking about doing is getting a Behringer mixer,
a dynamic mike, (maybe a Shure P58 for it's nice vocal qualities - ie not a lot of leakage from the room), and a one of those new Presonus stereo AD converters for $199 and then using the firewire into the mac and either into Amadeus or GB - I find Amadeus has less latency when recording , then i use GB to further process the track and finally dump the whole product into Itunes and burn the disk - *wroy (the warlock) |
