The community is really good for advice but if you're unfamiliar with recording and such I suggest you read something. As you're a swede (no pun intended) there is a really nice compilation of recording articles in the monthly magazine "Studio". Unfortunatly there is just a pdf left. But here it is. I bought it just out of curiosity a few years ago and it was very nice reading. http://shop.idg.se/pdf/articleInfo.asp?mcat=22&cat=80&item=21333 regards, PS. They have another nice compilation of articles, about mixing. http://shop.idg.se/pdf/articleInfo.asp?mcat=22&cat=80&item=20842 DS. /bengan _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
