Decent microphone to record vocals/instruments with?
(1/1)
sonatafanica:
Could you guys recommend a few, as well as what I would need to hook it into my computer for recording?
And while we're at it, good recording software?
Thanks ahead of time.

Mic/Instrument > Audio Interface > Computer. Most interface's come bundled with some sort of recording software. Depending on your needs, something like an M-Box might do the trick for you, which comes bundled with Pro Tools LE (I think).
In terms of mics you cant really go wrong with a Shure SM57 or (the step down)PG57 for instruments. I use an SM58 for vocal and just run guitar clean, both through a simple 2-input Tascam interface into my mac running Logic Pro 8. I use a Guitar Rig plug in for guitar sounds, very simple and easy to manage, although being digital it isnt going to sound AMAZING per se.

SM57 for Instruments, SM58 for vocals. Don't know about drums except that 57's are good for snares/hi-hats. I run bass straight into the soundboard.
