Home recording on a budget
July 3rd, 2010 | 
Author: 
Thank you for visiting my video.
I was tired of having to use poor quality sound capture devices for capturing the authentic sound of my guitar.I therefore did some investigation on the net and came to the conclusion that this setup was the most affordable for my needs.This also allowed for capture of vocals if the opportunity arose.This is the equipment i used;
- Fender “62 reissue Stratocaster
electric guitar – unmodified.
- Peavey Valveking Royal 8 Class A
all tube amplifier.
- Samson Q7 Neodymium Dynamic microphone.
- Art Tube MP Microphone Preamplifier
“the original”.
- Griffin Imic USB Audio Interface.
- Various cables to connect them all!
