You should change it to Home Recording F.A.Q. and have this stickied.

I need some midi lessons. I can't even figure out how to use battery correctly.

Ibby, thanks for dropping the names of some good apps. I'll have to pass them on to my audiophile/musician friend. He has been using an older version of FruityLoops.. and an even older version of CoolEdit. Just out of curiosity, will most of those run well on a slightly older computer or should he seek older versions of those as well.
He is running an old HP tiny-tower from 97-98. He replaced the mobo and processor and I think he is at least running a 1.8 in there. He has a good sound card, thanks to my tips, and he also has the same Shure mic as you.. (he bought one for his father and grandfather as well, both independent musicians).

Well, I mean like having different velocities play different samples and things, like drum hits - soft velocities are soft hits and hard are hard.
And if you're saying Frooty Loops still does it, then I didn't know! Still hardly versatile and really tedious, though.

Hey guys, I'm thinking of buying a Sennheiser 421 II mic for all-purpose recording, especially to basically replace my SM-57 as a cab mic. Anybody have any experience with this mic?

Mic clips!
http://www.sendspace.com/file/hjtyeb
First is the SM57 against the mesh
Second is the 421 against the mesh
Third is SM57 against the mesh with the 421 about four feet back (I didn't listen to this position well... just set the mic and recorded)
All clips are 100% rough.
In other Recording F.A.Q.s, anyone know of any decent VST programs for vocal distortion?

You guys are unhelpful bastards, you know that?
I'm have some trouble with the mics phasing, though (dual miking). Even when I hit the phase reverse button, it still phases, but has a different tone of phasing (if that makes any sense). Can anyone give me any tips or rules of thumb about mic phasing?

Microphone phasing!
You really don't want to have to invert one when using only two mics because it's easily avoidable. Distance ratios.
