[78-L] OT: Best way to make a simple live recording.

[Steve Williams]

Hi Joel, I see others finally answered your question without getting hung up
on software. Yes used Shure SM58s are good.  Also I could recommend
Audio-Technica mics, the quality you want are around $150 each.  A mixer
that plugs directly into USB can be had from several suppliers for $100 or
so.  You don't need to go to tape, recording via the interface gives as qood
a quality as that interface.

>Dear friends:

appreciate suggestions on the best way to capture a decent quality
recording. I could just use a videocamera, I guess, but also have an iPad
and PC available. Or I could rent a rig, >if it would make a difference, one
that was noticeable on YouTube and their ilk.

well. Thanks in advance!
