Okay, don't use forums much so if this is in the wrong place my bad.
I'm going to get straight into it..
I am wanting to start recording some drum tracks etc and i don't know where to start.
I've researched as much as i can find online and i know certain points but need some more so if anyone can answer this, it would be great.
First off, i've established that i need mic's (looking at a starting set for around £100-£150), a mixing board (looking at an Alesis Multimix 16 channel USB mixer) and havn't decided the software yet.
so..about the mixer.. is this simply a plug everything in the right place and away you go kind of thing? (obviously taking into account getting the mic placement and levels correct)
after the mics are plugged in, the mixer is plugged to the computer and the sufficient channels are open, will it record all 5-7 channels or am i missing something?
also what software would you reccommend on a budget?
cheers
