How do I set up a simple, basic home recording studio?
This is a great time to begin a project like this. With just a computer and a few pieces of gear you can make a great sounding home recording studio. What you’ll need: – A computer – Audio Interface – Basic Recording Software (bundled with most Audio Interfaces) – Large Diaphragm Condenser Mic Sounds like you already have a laptop… I’d recommend starting with a USB Audio Interface such as this one: http://pro-audio.musiciansfriend.com/pro… This gives you everything you need to get started with your recording including: – phantom power supply (powers the condenser mic) – microphone preamp (boosts the weak mic level signal) – analog / digital converters (converts electrical mic signal to a digital form that computers can understand) – basic recording software (for recording your tracks on the computer) Moving on I’d go with a large diaphragm condenser
