7 posts | 12 Posted on 01/05/2007 at 16:23 Ok you got me on the 3 year old topic, If you had read my statement you would have noticed the words audio interface IE firepod and a vast amount of others which already comes with decent pre amps which all can be mix down in cubase or protools and others which is considered more accurate mixing. As far as quality of sound it will be only as good as the weakest link. agreed the mics and pre amps are big part of it but not the only part. (sadly for you) reading is only a concept, back at you! :/:/ | ||

370 posts | 14 Posted on 01/05/2007 at 19:10 audio interfaces are about ad/da converters. that's what you pay for. built-in pre-amps are usually cheap opamps an a buffer to correct signal impedence. not much quality here, noise levels are quite high... unless you want to go on serious equipment, but this is not the case. also, an audio interface with more than 4 pres, is quite expensive, and since this guy was looking for a cheap way to record drums, using a mixer gives him the best choice of quality and price. so again, if you say "the sound quality will be much better", i say, you're wrong. | ||

7 posts | 15 Posted on 01/05/2007 at 21:24 I totally agree. they are cheap compared to high end ones. I was going for the lesser of two evils. Adding a cheap ass mixer like that into the mix will make it even worse. Here again assuming on my part they had a half way decent interface and mics. can't get any less expensive then using what you already have and not adding something that will make it worse. so lets just say our goal is the the same. besides why would he need a mixer for a roland spd-s sampler? | ||
