For the Aussie muso's looking to record on the pc

Post by Genebaby »

Hey guys,

Just found out about this, it will only be available until midday tomorrow I think.

Looks pretty cool, I think I'll get one. Anybody got any opinions on it?

Yer they are owned by Digidesign. Good shit. Do you Protools lite with it?
I got Jesus in my fax machine. I saw Ho Chi Minh down @ Burger King. I dated Vinnie Vincent as a Drag Queen. I still don't understand a f**kin' thing.
I have come here to chew bubble gum and kick ass and I'm all out of bubble gum.

No.... :cry:

The stupid auction finished in the middle of the night. I wasn't super keen to be awake so threw a bid on and was outbid.

Didn't really need it anyhow, but like Jackson stuff.

I haven't bought it yet but am looking at reviews.

Some love it, say it's great and they were recording guitar/vocals with ease.

Others say it doesn't record guitar direct very well, mics don't work with it (condenser ones) and the jacks are a funny size.

Not sure if I should get it or not. Comes with a lite version of the software, but I could get the full one day.

I currently have Ntrack Studio installed on a pc but rarely use it, but plan to one day when the kiddie is older. To use that I go through something like a POD XT Live into my soundcard.

This seems like a good interface. Maybe.

Whoa, that's a bit over the top for m needs. I have gotten by with just plugging into my sound card, not that I've even played around with that much, but I test that it works in the hopes one day I'll much around with it.

I guess I just like having the option/ability to record. Really it's just been very handy to play into the pc to learn/practice songs. So much better then the old days.
