Hi, newbie here,
I need help. I want to be able to record music from my acoustic guitar to my iMac. I have a Edirol UA-3D usb interface with guitar input, and a art tube pre-amp. Can I use what I have or is there something else needed. I don't need super quality recording, but I don't want a bunch of static either. Can someone help me out. Can I use what I have or is there something elso I need. Oh and I also have Pro Tools free.

Hi there,

I don't see any reason why your setup wouldn't work. Just keep in mind that PT Free doesn't run under OSX yet, so you'll have to work in OS9.

i've tried setting it up this way and it does work, but I get lots of static. Would this be because of a bad connection or cable with the soundhole pickup? Should I get a condenser mic with a better cable?

Static could come from a number of places, but your cable is the easiest thing to check first. You don't necessarily need to spend loads on a condensor mic - anything will sound better than a soundhole pickup. I use an SM-57 with decent enough results (like you, I don't need super high quality).
