The Generaly speaking, I agree.. But believe me: with the same mic, same position, distance and angle, the sound recorded with my SB Live seems so "cold". I +never+ could get the sound I had in my head. >quality of the device you recommend might be good, I don't know, but to >prove the quality of the device by electric guitar amp recordings with >a >dynamic mic IMO isn't trusty. Recording via "Dynamic mic" is trusty (and recquired!) for some guys and I'm one of them. Because it's a bit like a stompbox effect. I mean, if you know the hardware, you expect it to deliver a particular sound. As a live performer, I knew how to position my dynamic mic. I tried some audio interfaces which sounded better than the SB Live, obviously. But the NI K6 really surprised me. That's what I meant. Sometimes I record 2 channels: first one = amp + SM57. Second one = dry signal from a bypassed stereo stomp box, for reamping purposes with guitarix. This "dry" sound always sound good! Which, once again seemed to be impossible before I bought the K6. Another example: I used it to record from a dying MiniDisc (no more spdif etc..), so at Line level: it sounded good and even kept the "coldness" (?) of the Minidisk. I mean: the K6 didn't add any unwanted coloration. Now I'm not saying it's the best audio interface: it's a surprisingly cheap but very good itf working with Linux. -- Envoyé de mon téléphone Android avec K-9 Mail.
