Okay all,
Now I know some of you record (with great outcomes) with mics instead of the more convenient line-in way.
I'm looking into getting a mic. I've heard great things about the Shure SM57 mic and am looking into getting one as my first mic. Now, I may have misunderstood but I've read that some people (for home recording, anyway) use mics like this and feed them directly into their sound card... does this work? I think I remember Marin or someone saying something like that.
Are there any other EQ'ing steps I should take. I've already read up on how to boost or cut certain frequencies to compliment guitar tones and I plan to mess around with that. My final question is: Will it be okay if I plug a mic straight into my soundcard?
