| Re: Getting pro audio from "cheap" devices Sounds like a great system. I am using a very similar one at the moment. The Phase88's are nice but could do with a bit more headroom for my liking. I mainly record live music by taking feeds off a desk - sometimes the desk gain needs to be a touch lower than I would normally have it if I were not recording.
One thing that is important is to have some good quality studio monitors to mix with. I mixed a CD without any which made the process hard (especially for mastering) and the final result was not as good as it could have been.
Another cool thing to do (for live production) is to use the computer as an effects rack. I run the sound from the desk through my phase 88, using an insert on desk, and then use the monitoring feature in cubase to apply realtime VST's. |
