I'm guessing AD converting might come in handy for use with an analog mixer. I'm also considering another mixer... perhaps one of these: http://www.zzounds.com/item--MACDFX12 http://www.zzounds.com/item--YAMMG124C I'll need a way to connect a board like that to the computer - and to know whether or not it'll work with Linux/64-bit. Though, some people have said go for a mixer like that and others have said don't get a mixer at all. > I love the 2020. I've had bad experiences with Samson in the past, but > I haven't tried their stuff lately. I'm almost positive I'll get the AT2020. Definitely 1... What would be the benefits to 2? How could I make the best out of just 1? http://www.zzounds.com/item--AUTAT2020 My computer will be a slight contradiction, gaming and music production... though I'm trying to make it work, might get external manual controls for the fans (to go on low) for when I produce music (or go on high for gaming). Since it's also for gaming, I've considered getting basic 5.1 speakers for that. I'll also have a headset for gaming though I don't want to use it all the time, the speakers would be nice. Unless just getting 2 monitor speakers (for music producing) could be used effective with the gaming when I don't feel like using headphones/headset? What speakers (monitors) are good, at a hopefully decent price, for use with recording stuff at home?

One of my old teachers suggested either AT2020, Samson C01, or Samson C03, specifically, as affordable good quality mics. I'm curious how they are similar or different. Thanks!

I recorded most of the stuff here: http://gnupc.de/~zettberlin/law/samples/free/raw/ with a Samson C02 - the results are very much OK though they reveal also, that the Samson is NOT HiFi - it emphasizes the higher spectrum so the samples sound quite brilliant. The instruments whatsoever do not really sound as the Samson picks them up: they sound much more mellow and darker if you stand in front of them. So I guess: if you want a drum kit or an accoustic string instrument to sound more brilliant then in the real, the Samson could be a clever choice ;-) best regs HZN -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFJAvLN1Aecwva1SWMRAlvdAJ4uHFKPAmYq/u9P3sJe5QqB1oBxfACfXXqq mCRNMMIOu4HasPo3VUMc6WE= =JPva -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list Ubuntu-Studio-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users

Mackie 802-VLZ3 and comparing 3 mics.
Hello, Does anybody know how Ubuntu Studio (64-bit), 64 Studio, or Linux/Unix in general handles the Mackie 802-VLZ3 mixer? I believe someone on this list mentioned the AT2020. Does anybody know how these 3 mics compare? + Audio Technica AT2020 + Samson C01 + Samson C03 Thank you!
