I am not sure if this is in the right part of the forum.
My friend is looking to buy a microphone to start recording his band. I couldn't offer much advice on exactly what he needed or how much he needed to spend.
Here is some background info and requirments...
The music would be produced in a basement room with carpetted walls, and maybe some low-grade isolation as well.
The mic would be for mainly drums, vocals, and guitar. So no speciallity varieties of microphones.
He wants to record to his computer using software and a soundcard he has not yet selected.
There is not really a set price, more of what is the best bang for your buck. If I had to guessitmate on what is acceptable maybe $1000 total for the mic, soundcard and software. Is there any other equipment that he should get rather than instruments/computers?
Any advice/information would very appreciated.
