What are you guys using for monitors? My old Tannoys need to be replaceed for serious monitoring. I am looking at the Behringer Truth series and the M-Audio BX8s. I saw Alesis has some monitors right in that same area but Alesis quality is totally hit or miss. My budget is $500 area so any suggestions would be great.
***EDIT***
Ended up getting the BX8 monitors but a 5" or 6" driver might serve me better, the *" drivers have somwhat unrealisticbass performance compared to most playback systems for final mixes.
Tascam US-122 USB MIDI/Audio Interface
Digital Reference (A line from Audio Technica, I think) DR-GX1 mic
Behringer UB802 Mixer
Or my other option is a Behringer V-Amp Pro.
SM-58 mic, Tascam Porta-07 4-track as a mixer for quick clips, to the soundcard and Cool Edit on the PC. I'm messing with Krystal Audio but having issues with it. Can't get rid of the dang delay, even with recommended driver to get rid of it. :smack:
To record I use my 10W solid state amp plugged into the closest outlet and I stretch out my internet chat microphone to the amp and record it to the Sound Recorder program :laugh2:
I use a SM57 to close mic my amp and a Rode NT1-A a bit further back. They go into a cheap behringer mixer and into my sound card. I use Adobe Audition too... I think its pretty good.
