I am setting up my recording studio and
have gotten mixed messages from people. All I want to do is have at least 2 mic inputs with phantom power and volume control going into my computer. I have found the Duo by Midiman which gives you this and has a USB connection going to the computer. But there is also the option of buying a small mixing board and having its output connect to the small 1/8" input on the computer. What is considered the optimum quality recording? How are other people connecting their recording hardware to their computer? Thanks for any help. -------------------- To rhyme is a waste of time.

If you like ProTools LE and don't mind waiting a bit for the OSX version, Mbox is great quality (specially if you want it portable).
Do a search for Mbox on here. (I hope its not all in French) (Don't know about Duo) Then you need to look for good mics and monitors $$$ What Mac have you got and what do you want to do with it? -------------------- Without shit, we wouldn't be here ;)
