Hi....new here... but I like the site.
One quetsion though I could not easily find. I want to buy a Shure SM57...but can i hook it up directly into my Imac? Its an Imac G5 20"..... Can i do it through the line-in? Or do I need something else...or should I go for a completely other mike? It's mainly for recording voice/acoustic guitar for demo's. -------------------- IMac G5 20" 1GB OSX 10.3.9, Imac G3 400Mhz 512MB OSX 10.2.8

I'd recommend something like the M-Audio Fast Track USB Mic/instrument pre (~$99 USD) which will allow you both an XLR interface for your SM57 as well as a 1/4" input for a guitar input as well.
 Sorry, couldn't find a smaller picture of the device. But more detials can be found at: M-Audio Fast Track USB Good luck. peace, deacon -------------------- |
