I have about 8 demos on cassette tape and about 6 demos on cd.. If I'm playing out at a gig, I do what I can to record it...(I need an iRiver).. But when I record at home, I usually take the time to find the right tracks, right programing and putting some good time into it before I record it...I use acid foundry on my comp. to record

having just got my iRiver h320... i fucking love it. used it on new years eve and got a good 5 hours worth. (i had to ditch the recording tho cos the cdj's were fucked)
the whole thing sounded great. sound quality is just what you need.
as far as recording my shows, i use a PC and sound forge. works like a charm everytime.
I use my iRiver iFP-395 (it actually stays in my pocket at all times). Though I don't use it much to record when im playing somewhere mostly because the club I've been mainly playing at has a shitty mixer and the wiring is a mess. Not sure I want to fuck with it. At home I use an external soundcard hooked to my mixer and record with Totalrecorder Pro. I need to record more but I'm such a perfectionist I'm never happy with it so it always gets scrapped.

i record promo cd's every so often and sent them to various clubs, and have been for a couple of years. it finally started paying of at the end of last year, i played my first gig out to a nearly empty bar, a month or so after i was headlining a night at one of the best underground nights in northern ireland, then about a month later i was warming up for nick warren in the best club in the country, the legendary Lush.
anyways here a link to the latest cd, i normally don't post them in the promo section as nobody downloads mixes form people they don't know
Hey all i just posted a theard on how to record on pc not long a ago. can anyone recommend a good sound card that's not too expensive?? u c i just bought a new laptop not long ago but because i am so carp with computers i started recording through the mic and everyone on here said do it through the line in. i have another hole in the front but it's for s/pdif. whatever that means. does anyone know how to check what sound card i might have and how to get the line in installed on my laptop (that is if i have a sound card in there) . i have this program called realtek. anyone else have this program and know how to install my line in??
who makes the computer and which model is it? realtec is the soundcard and driver. spdif is your digital audio in/out. is there only one input? is it a coax i/o or optical i/o? (coax = rca like plug). what are you trying to hook to the computer? a mixer? an iriver?.... millions of different things going on here mate....

That's what I mean. I dont have any gigs or residencies. It's a fun hobby for me. I mix alot at home and like you said, every now and then I record something.
I would really like to listen to stuff from "regular joe" members here. See what each of our styles are and what not.
I?ll probably do that in a few weeks.
I finally got my home Internet connection back this Christmas, so I?ve been buying stuff at BeatPort to put together a mix, along with some older stuff. I use Ableton Live, so no problems with recording the set.

I would recommend the soundblaster audigy nx 2. Should be under 100 bucks. I bought a refurb. one off ebay from 70(?). I always had a problem with line buzz when using internal cards so I went for an external unit. Its capable of 24bit with 48Khz sampling rate (96Khz for playback). On your laptop you probably just have the output and the mic input. Your fine using the mic for an input as long you adjust the levels to make sure they are not too hot. S/pdif is a digital format, your not going to be able to use that for recording.
Its also 24bit, says 96Khz sampling rate (I imagine for output like the audigy). But this one is for your pcmcia slot and also has 8 virtual outputs. I imagine this could be really good when working with any multi track app (think ableton).
Hope that helps.
