Various Ways To Interface Your Instrument To Your Computer
If you're like me, are obsessed with home recording. I have spent much time and money in finding out the best way to connect my microphones and guitars to my computer over the years. Here are the routes I chose and what worked best.
Platform
From the beginning I decided to go with the Mac platform, just because I had played with its iLife software includes "GarageBand" and was somewhat satisfied with their recording capacity. I do not think he has everything, but I have a PowerBook G4 in 2003 and now own a MacBook Pro
Straight Line-In w / Radio Shack Adapter
The first thing I tried was to use the line-in built-in on my Mac, which is a 1 / 8 inch stereo female port. Therefore, I have a 1 / 4 inch to 1 / 8 inch adapter from Radio Shack. This was the worst way to interface my guitar to my computer. The part from Radio Shack did not fit my instrument cable just right, causing undue wear on the port of my Mac, and the sound was super metal.
iMic
The iMic is basically the same as the adapter from Radio Shack, only has a shorter cable and it fits my best instrument cable. I still have a very metallic sound.
M-Audio Fastrack USB audio interface
I had my first fruits of success with this $ 99 audio interface. Essentially, take your guitar or microphone analog signal and converts it into a digital one. Send digital data via USB to your recording software, and voila!
This solution was my first semi-professional sounding recordings, coupled with some post-production GarageBand mixing and effects. There was still a problem with the buzz and reviews, however.
Mixer also borrow from a friend that allows me to do some mixing, and balance, and soon was making stereo recordings. It sounded great, but the increased interference. I had too many connections and cables and the potential for signal loss and corruption.
Alesis USB 8-Channel Mixer
This solution worked best for me in a small house increased the budget to get quality virtual studio. This mixer was around $ 200, but acts as an analog mixer, both regular, and a USB interface (both sides that can be used independently of the other). This mixer USB interface eliminates some of the seams of the platform, which allows more pure sound, high-quality recordings. The mixer also features 100 different effects preamplifier.
So, in essence, my guitar signal passes through a USB cable to my mixer via the USB cable directly to my computer. There are very few participants analog connections.
Behringer iAXE 393
There is another option that is less than analog connections. The Behringer iAXE 393 has a USB port right on it, allowing it to connect directly to your digital computer. This is a pretty amazing idea, which allows digital recording without problems. Hopefully more companies will rise on guitar and add your own USB versions of the guitars.
I have tested the iAXE, and I must say that although the action was a little high, the guitar sounded great, pumping data directly into GarageBand.
