Hi,
First off I want to let you know I know I have another topic but I made this one as its a different question and I just want to keep the forum clean. Anyway, after alot of help from the guys here and some friends ive been told that because I dont play LIVE etc I basically just learn songs in my house and want to put covers on YouTube etc of my favourite songs, I should maybe opt to changing my Peavey VK112 for a set of Active Speakers. Ive noticed myself that when I play via the amp I can get a nice tone but when it comes to recording it it sounds nothing like it, and it also makes a difference when trying to record it as it doesnt feel the same. So I spoke to a friend who is very good at recording and he does it all the time. He said with a set of Active Speakers you get no latency lag when playing and the tone you create will be the same as recording, which means you can get it perfect 1st time. What I want is some opinions on this before I decide to go down that road. Im using a Line6 PODxt Live for those who dont know. Is it a good idea to do this? What are good active speakers to get? I saw these: http://www.guitar.co.uk/studio_monitors/27...ve_usb_monitors Will the quality be just as good as my Peavey? I have Logitech Z4 speakers but I take it there not good enough? How would I connect it all in? Is it ok to record via USB on a laptop or should I get an external USB soundcard (I have Creative XFi 5.1 Surround) Thanks and all help is appreciated greatly, -R This post has been edited by Rowan: Sep 17 2009, 01:34 PM -------------------- >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
