I keep getting a lot of questions about inexpensive starter options for computer recording, from students and emailers alike.  I wanted to share two really cool pieces that should be in your toolbox.

I ran across this baby, and fell in love with it!  It’s an XLR to USB cable made by SoundTech for less than $40.  Essentially, it’s a sound card in a cable!  I highly recommend this one for mobile recording or as a quick and easy way to get started in computer recording.  Click the pic for more info.

I also recommend the Samson G Track USB studio microphone.  I’ve recommended this one before, but this is an all-in-one USB studio microphone with a built-in audio interface and headphone jack.  You can also plug a line instrument, such as a guitar, into this puppy.  Click the pic for more info

These items are really great in combination with the free recording software that I talked about in my post “Creative Ways to Make a Living with Music (Part 1)”.

Until next time…
