artist and want the computer automation to do a lot of the punching in, etc. for you. I have found the mixer to be quite superior, and I think the noise reduction system works quite well at high speed. Q1.3.2 What is the difference between a Tascam 424 and 464? toehser@cais.cais.com (Tom Oehser) writes: >What does the 464 have that makes it sell for $230 more than the 424? >(Best I can tell, the difference is extra channels in the mixer and XLR >inputs. Is this difference worth it?) More channels. XLR and preamps. I think the 424 has a wall-wart and the 464 has an internal power suppoly. Computerized auto-locate and auto-punch. Large LCD display with 6 meters, 424 has LED with 4 meters. More/better EQ and cueing section controls. Just overall, more bells and whistles. Yes, I think it is worth it, unless you have a good mixer with preamps, like a Mackie 1202, and are willing to forego the extra automation. Q1.4 How important are microphones? You can't fix a bad sound in the mix. Start with a good source (a 68 68
good mic) and you're halfway there. Adapted from tstrohma@theodolite.ae.calpoly.edu (Trevor Strohman): It happens all too often. A <strong>gr</strong>oup is looking for <strong>gr</strong>eat sound on a limited budget. They go to the music store and see all the glitzy 4-tracks and other recorders. Maybe they have deeper pockets and go straight for an ADAT. Then they need a microphone. Microphones, not having the sizzle factor of the recorders, are last on the list, and there's only $50 left. They leave with a digital recording studio and a Radio Shack tie-clip microphone. They get home and plug it in. The features work just like they did in the store, but the sound isn't quite right. So they go back with more money. They still skip the mics, and go for compressors, equalizers, reverbs. They have a little money left over. This time they buy a Shure SM57. They go back and try it out. Neat sounds! Not quite like the CDs, but it sounds pretty good. They want more. They go back to the store... the cycle continues. Of course, there will always be this cycle with musicians looking for the perfect sound, but you can get to the perfect sound a lot faster if you invest in microphones first. As they say in computing, garbage in, garbage out. No effects can compensate for a terrible microphone. 69 69
