My friend and I want to get into recording on his PC. We've recorded albums before, but it was at someone else's (analog) studio, so we really don't know a whole lot of what to buy to do it ourselves on a PC. We have all the music equipment and mics we'd need but we're unsure about the recording hardware. We want something to let us record probably 8 or more separate tracks (I'm not sure if that's limited to hardware or software). Cost isn't much of an issue, so we're wondering if we should go with one of these $2200 Digidesign Pro Tools setups, or if that's overkill and we should use something simple like a regular sound card with a breakout box and different software or what. Versatility and quality is important, but it should hopefully be something that isn't TOO difficult to learn to use either. Any help is greatly appreciated. olaf2022 fucked around with this message at 00:40 on Feb 16, 2007 |

Crystal Pepsi posted:That digidesign factory bundle is pretty much exactly what you want (assuming you're using a Mac computer). Go for it, you could probably save some cash ordering from someone other than musiciansfriend though. Thanks, but why "assuming you're using a Mac"? The site says it's compatible with both WinXP and OSX...

Thank you guys too. Also, Digidesign.com says there's a Vista-compatible version in the works.
