We are an average rock band trying to not have to pay too much for recording studios.

We have all the normal components:
Bass Guitar
Drum set
Lead guitar
Vocals/rhythm guitar

What recording mic can we get for a basement band room?

I am going to assume that you only want to buy 1 microphone.
In that case you want to get yourself a large diaphrahm condenser microphone. In my opinion this is this the most versatile microphones you can get. It can record everything, and record it well.

I explain more about why this is a great choice here: http://recordingquestions.com/question/recording-equipment-and-software-suggestions/32#60

I am interested in getting more into music composition, home recording and sequencing. I have heard that Mac are superior in this field, but are extremely expensive. PC seems to have many of the same software and capability but at a much lower cost. What would you recommend?

I think I would like to be able to use Finale and Pro-Tools at some point.

The truth is that computers have nothing to do with audio quality and hit records are made with PC’s and Mac’s all the time. What you need to do is use the computer you are most comfortable with, doesn’t matter PC or MAC.

The faster the computer, the more realtime audio effects you can run on all your tracks at the same time. That’s the one thing you need to worry about.

If I have gatherings in my home and people are recorded on them and they know they are recorded, do I need permission from them to share with others? What are the laws?

The only case that you have to share that video with others if you have to prove in defense of yourself that something illegal was done. I would not get into sharing these for personal reasons. That is the law.

In making a home recording with a condenser microphone, how do I cut out the "air" sound? When I go to noise removal, it cuts out the air but it also changes the vocals so it sounds like its in a tube. Help!

If you have air sounds when no one is near the mic at all, then you have your gain up too high or you have a very noisy room.

If you are talking about the air of the singers voice I would suggest getting a pop filter and possibly raising the vocal mic a bit.

One other thing to consider, if you have your mic on a short stand that is on or in contact with your computer desk, that might be the problem. Try isolating the mic so it is not touching anything.

First, find the source of the air noise (contact with desk, gain too high, airconditioner, noisy room) then hunt for the solution.

Good luck.

If someone is recording your home phone to their cell phone, how can i find out?
I have vtech.
Is there any phone recording device that I can judge so that I will know that there is a recording device.
Is there any chip you can put in the phone for recording?

I am not sure, but the best place I have found to sell my old cell phones is: http://www.cellitused.com
