Hi mate! I use a Line 6 Pod HD 500 connected directly to my audio interface to record my guitar for lessons, composing and practicing. You could also connect it via USB. There is not too much secret about it. If you can get a M-audio Fast track and something like Guitar Rig or Revalver it will be ok for a home studio. A pair of monitors is also a god idea to listen to your guitar and mixs. There are lots of brands and models, it depends on your budget. Having a mic (SM 57 for example) is a good idea for recording vocal references, acoustic guitar and any other instrument.

We don't tend to get in to recording much but our usual studio set up when we do:
We usually mic the amp: a Shure SM 57 and either a Rode NT1 or a Neumann TLM103 depending on what we after. Very occasionally we might use a 3rd mic. If we can't mic the amp then we have an Engl recording preamp that we DI. The mics run to a preamp - either a Prism Orpheus and/or a Neve Portico. There will also be some outboard on insert, which we use in moderation at tracking (tend to use it at mixing and mastering). ADC for the above is the Orpheus. Very rarely, if we're recording a large multi mic live band set up we'll use a 64 track layered digital console and that runs to either a Lavry Blue or an RME HDSP 64 digi i/o to the pc. Again very rarely we might drop to a multitrack for a small live set up. Depending on what we're doing we'll often stereo mic the group, usually as an ORTF sometimes supplimented with a mid-side set up or sometimes spot. DAC - Prism Orpheus and Lavry Black 11 they feed our ATC SCM pro monitors. If we're out on location though they go to a pair of Tannoy Reveals - the ATC are just too big and heavy to move. My advice, in addition to what's already been said - spend time getting the recording right. Don't assume you can save a bad recording at mixing/mastering. -------------------- Get your music professionally mastered by anl AES registered Mastering Engineer.
