Default HELP ME!!!HOW DO I hook up condenser mic to computer? - 20-03-2007, 08:20 PM

I use fl studio, vsts and samples. I have a crappy soundcard that came with my computer which has a huge ass delay. Its not asio its direct X or what ever and has no inputs for a condenser mic. I need the cheapest way to hook up a condenser mic, preamp, and midi keyboard. I dont have a lot of money im only 16. I heard about this sound card that has 2 mic pres, midi interface, fantom power, and 2 mic inputs. Its 200 dollars. I think its worth it. IS THEIR ANOTHER CHEAP WAY TO HOOK UP MY MIC TO MY COMPUTER SO THAT I CAN RECORD VOCALS(in my closet/vocal both) I also need a sound card so is this 200 Dollar soundcard best for me? I need to have near 0 lentecy (i dont know how to spell the real word) I am poor as hell so I can only spend about $200. I thought about an interface but they cost too much. SOME ONE HELP ME OUT ON THIS ONE. I MAY BE ONLY 16 but I CAN PRODUCE. I do the best with what i got, and what i got is not much but as long as the end product sounds good, it doesnt matter. HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!

I have a condenser mic too, you're gonna need to get a M-Audio Mobile Pre or somthing. IT's a USB sound card with the jack on the back for one of those mics. You also need to make sure it's phantom powered so that the sound is good. This reminds me of somthing I need to figure out as well so I'm gonna go start another thread on it.

I'd stay away from USB mic-pres and go for a combo of a soundcard like the M-Audio Audiophile 2496 and a mic pre like the Studio Projects VTB-1.

Like kidd d said u can get a soundcard n cheap mic pre, but it will still go over the price.
zZounds.com have good prices on their products.
Have a look here for Firewire Interfaces:
zZounds.com

I will probably be gettin the Mackie Onyx Satellite, which is $199.95.
