hi guys..my friend recently bought me an at2020usb for my birthday..and after playing around with it in my garage band, i realise i wasnt doing my mic justice. i am wondering what are some of the good programs i can use to record my vocals, and what are some of the things i can do to improve on the recording quality.
i was planning to buy a pre amp for it, but on another thread a poster told me that my usb mic will not be able to work with any preamp. initially i was actually planning to get a focusrite saffire pre amp.
i then came across this video,http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V9CzaOpPpL4&feature=related , which the guy was using the same mic as me.i love the clarity and sound of his recordings so after reading his comments,i realised that he said the recording program does not matter much, the plug ins are way more important.
so i would like to ask,firstly what are some of the programs that you guys can recommend to use? fruity loops?cubase? protools?
secondly for the preamp, will my mic really be unable to connect to it?
thirdly, where do i get those plugins
fourthly, how do i get the plug ins to work with the recommended programs?
i'm currently using a mac book pro..any help would be greatly greatly appreciated..thank you very much.
