Default Re: Computer Recording For Non-Tech

I know once I get a good grasp on computer recording, then the sky's the limit and that's exciting!
Good. That's the direction you should go considering you already have all the gear you need. It would be ridiculous to ditch all your computer gear to learn a standalone box. The standalone boxes are, in my opinion, MUCH harder to learn than the computer stuff. I think many people hear "computer" and immediately cower in fear. There is no reason to do this.

My friend passed away suddenly a year ago and all recording stopped.
I hate to hear that, dude. My condolences.

But you know, reading the operating manuals for this equipment is like reading a Chinese newspaper for me.
I think you decided that before you even started reading the manuals. We both know those manuals are in English. There are some vocabulary words you need to work on, but Google (or asking question on RecordingReview.com) takes care of all of this. If you gave it 4 solid hours of reading the manual while looking up each term on Google that you didn't know, you would EASILY know everything you need to. In fact, it may only take 2 hours.

I could sum up the whole thing in a paragraph.

So, while I appreciate you taking the time to discuss on the forum, I do have to say that the 10 minutes you spent on this private message should have went to SLOWLY and PRECISELY reading the manual.

You'll do fine. This whole "I'm a tech" so I can't do this or "I'm not a tech" so I can't do this is all hogwash. If you can drive a car, you can work recording software.
