Hey all,
So I'm looking to upgrade my recording gear. Right now I have a pretty basic set up. AKG c214 (vocals) or guitar/bass direct in to a M-Audio Profire 610, which goes to my iMac running Logic X and a pair of Adam F5s.
I don't need more than a few inputs/outputs, as I'm not tracking drums. So far, I've been looking at a RME Fireface 400, UA 610 preamp, and maybe a Shure SM7b and a Cloud Cloudlifter Z.
I don't have a lot of experience with this kind of hardware, so does this sound like a good plan?
Also, I've heard that it's good to have a DI box before the interface when recording guitars/bass direct in. The UA Solo 610 has a DI box built in, but I'm guessing that wouldn't work. Is there one you'd recommend?
My apologies if any of this doesn't make sense. I'm a guitar guy, trying to be a recording guy.
