I am looking for a little basic information as I am beginning to set up my G4 Powerbook as a portable recording studio. Here are my parameters:
1) I want to record one stereo channel in very high quality. (I will be recording pipe organs in the Netherlands, for possible CD release). 2) I would like to use phantom mics, but am open to debate. 3) I would like to keep my equipment to a minimum so I am as mobile as possible. 4) no audio plug-ins or effects are needed. I am thinking that I can probably use the installed GarageBand, but I have my doubts about my sound card. Do I need to upgrade? What external hardware do I need besides mics and a stand? (Remember I'm only recording one stereo channel). Thanks for the help. |

Well, I was hoping that I could keep costs down because I wouldn't need a multi-channel interface. Here is one solution I was considering:
-Earthworks TC30K condenser mics (pair) 1,100.00 -Edirol UA-25 USB interface (one stereo channel, 24-bit) 239.00 -Mic stand and cables 150.00 I could be set up for 1,500 dollars. Any problems with that set up? Will my sound card be sufficient? (powerbook G4, 1.33, 768MB, OSX,) |
