I have heard many many good things about Mac's regarding recording music and it's user friendly software. Currently I have a Dell Inspiron & Audiocity for my editing software. I've yet to get an interface to recording w/ clarity b/t my amp and laptop. Currently what I'm having to do is run a 1/8" dual male cable from my RP90 pedal's headphone jack to my laptop's mic jack to remove the external background noise. Obviously it isn't the best setup but certainly "workable". I've learned I need to get an audio interface to remove a lot of the "hum" and crackling in my recordings.
The reason for my post is to ask 2 questions and to see the opinions and preferences of guys with more experience than me on
A: Are Macs the way to go or no?
B: Perhaps more practical right now, what model recording audio interface am I going to get the best value and user friendliness from for under $150?
My Gear includes:
Schecter Damien Solo Elite
Hartke SB-15 bass
Alvarez Regent Acoustic
Crate VTX 15 Digital Amp
Digitech RP90 Processing Pedal
I'd like to upgrade on my pedal build my own board & also pickups for my bass but that's for another post.
Thanks and keep rockin'!
