Hi. I've been using Cubase for some time now, to make some backing tracks to jam along with. And also I own a Shure SM57 mic, which I use when playing live.
And the thought occured to (I'm not very bright on the computer thing) that I could record using my mic in front of my amp going into the computer. But what I really need to know is how far from beeing able to record am I?
Ive been looking into getting a descent sound card for my pc, example would be soundblaster X-Fi card. But I guess I will also need a XLR converter to make it go into the pc?
I know this sounds kinda stupid to some maybe, but I just really want to record. Any advices would be appriciated and suggestions for cards, cables and stuff is also very welcome.
Thanks,
Alex
