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)

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)
