Would love some feedback on my recording setup. I'm recording myself singing and playing acoustic guitar; usually I do the guitar first then the vocals, but I never need more than two mics. Anyway, for this I have: -A plenty powerful PC; ASUS a7N8xe motherboard, 1 gig RAM, 2 ghz processor running WinXP -Cool Edit Pro v1.2 (I have had it since my junior year of high school and it's all I know how to use; also I don't want to spring for new software. Does the software itself make a difference in sound quality? What would newer software give me?) -Behringer Eurorack UB802 mixer -Creative SB Live! soundcard, with the LiveDrive thing. I have a cable that turns the two-1/4"-jack output of the EuroRack into one 1/4" jack, which plugs into the LiveDrive. -Audio Technica AT2020 condenser mic -Shure SM58 I usually mic the guitar with the Audio Technica at the 12th fret and the SM58 at the bridge, and when I do vocals I use the Audio Technica. Is there anything I could do to step up the quality of my recordings significantly, without spending tons of money? Also, I don't suppose someone could give a quick primer on microphone positioning for acoustic guitars and vocals?
