[QUOTE="Village Idiot, post: 363759, member: 29446"] You're stuck then. It's an expensive thing to get into, but after the initial investment, it's not too bad. You can either pay about $200 for a firewire recording device with pre-amps, or about $100 for one with out preamps. If you get one without preamps, you're still going to have to fork out money for a mixer with preamps (because buying straight preamps at that price is going to get you two very nice looking piles of crap). You'll need microphones too. You can probably find microphones for about $30-$50 each, but they're going to suck. They'll work and you might not be able to tell if you haven't dealt with anything else, but if you buy two $100 mics, condensors or what not, it'll sound soo much better. That or make due with one usb mic. [/QUOTE]
